Assuming you could swing either one financially, and both became available in California, which would you choose and why: a California compliant SIG P211 or a Staccato HD XC?
 
Zermatt Waltz 9 😅

But Staccato over Sig because it just ain't worth the hassle or the shame.
 
After shooting both side by side id go p211.
I also prefer the 320 mags over glock mags. Even though the new mecgar metal ones are really nice
 
First impressions are that fit and finish are better on the staccato. The p211 was nicer than i expected though. It had a little more play in the slide to frame fit than my xc but it wasnt atrocious. The grip on the p211 is comfortable and the texture is adequate. The trigger is surprisingly good, especially when you consider that it is a series 80.

The saftey was also very nice and had a good snap with no mush or over travel. The shooting experience is good with the p211. Very good. Shooting the two guns back to back i was shocked. Is the p211 better than the xc? No, not in my hands at least. But its close. Closer than I would have thought. Recoil is light and slide/sight return is good. The gun seemed plenty accurate.

The fact that the p211 is even in the same conversation as the xc is a huge accomplishment for sig.
