The Staccato HD P4 Preferred Package: A Game-Changer for California Shooters

Dirty Bird Guns and Ammo is proud to introduce the Staccato HD P4 Preferred Package 9mm 4″ Semi-Auto Pistol, a firearm that redefines precision and performance. Now available on California’s Handgun Roster, the HD P4 stands alone as the only 2011-platform pistol approved for sale in the state. In this post, Dirty Bird explores why this pistol is a must-have, its stellar reputation, why it’s worth the investment, and who it’s built for, all while celebrating its historic arrival in California.

Why the Staccato HD P4 Stands Out

The Staccato HD P4 is a modern masterpiece, blending the timeless design of the 1911 with cutting-edge innovation. Crafted with input from elite law enforcement and military professionals, it delivers unmatched accuracy, consistently achieving 2-inch groups at 25 yards. Its 4-inch bull barrel and refined recoil system ensure fast, flat-shooting performance, making follow-up shots a breeze. The full-size grip, compatible with 18-round Glock-pattern magazines, offers comfort for all hand sizes, while ambidextrous controls cater to both right- and left-handed shooters.

What sets the HD P4 apart is its forward-thinking design. The HOST optic mounting system allows seamless integration of popular red dot sights, and the Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC)-coated barrel provides exceptional durability. The Preferred Package sweetens the deal with Trijicon Tritium Night Sights for low-light precision and an extra 18-round magazine, ensuring shooters are ready for any scenario. For range sessions, duty, or self-defense, the HD P4 excels in every role.

A Reputation Forged in Trust

Staccato’s name carries weight, trusted by over 1,600 law enforcement agencies nationwide, including elite units like the Texas Rangers and Las Vegas Metro Police Department. The HD line, rigorously tested for endurance and reliability, meets the demands of America’s top professionals. Its ability to perform under pressure has made it a favorite among competitive shooters and armed citizens alike. Recent buzz on X highlights the excitement around the HD P4’s roster approval, with California shooters calling it a landmark moment.

Worth Every Penny

The Staccato HD P4’s premium price reflects its premium performance. Built with high-grade materials, including a stainless-steel frame and DLC-coated barrel, it’s designed to last a lifetime. Its versatility—compact enough for concealed carry yet powerful enough for duty—makes it a do-it-all pistol. Compatibility with affordable Glock-pattern magazines adds long-term value, and Staccato’s strong resale value ensures it’s a smart investment. For shooters who demand the best, the HD P4 delivers confidence and capability that justify the cost.

Built for Every Shooter

The HD P4 is designed for those who refuse to compromise. Law enforcement and military professionals rely on its reliability for high-stakes missions. Concealed carry enthusiasts appreciate its 4-inch barrel and ergonomic grip for discreet, comfortable carry. Competitive shooters love its precision and fast cycle time, while home defenders value its high capacity and optic-ready design. Whether a seasoned pro or a first-time buyer, the HD P4’s intuitive handling makes it accessible to all.

A Historic Milestone for California

The Staccato HD P4’s addition to California’s Handgun Roster in May 2025 is a big deal. As the only 2011-platform pistol on the roster, it brings a level of performance previously unavailable to California shooters. Meeting the state’s strict safety standards, including microstamping and drop tests, the HD P4 proves its quality and compliance. Available online and at select dealers like Dirty Bird Guns and Ammo starting May 29, 2025, it’s a rare chance to own a firearm that’s both elite and accessible.

Final Shot

The Staccato HD P4 Preferred Package is more than a pistol—it’s a statement of excellence. Its precision, reliability, and roster approval make it a standout choice for California shooters. Whether for duty, defense, or competition, the HD P4 delivers performance that’s worth celebrating. Visit Dirty Bird Guns and Ammo to secure yours and experience the pistol that’s raising the bar.
