Springfield Armory 1911 DS Prodigy 9mm Optic Ready

The Modern 1911: Double-Stack Performance

Springfield Armory's Prodigy represents a thoughtful evolution of the classic 1911 platform. By combining the proven ergonomics and reliability of the 1911 with a double-stack magazine design, Springfield has created a handgun that bridges traditional and contemporary shooting sports.

Capacity Without Compromise

The Prodigy ships with both 17-round and 20-round magazines, giving you flexibility for competition, duty, or personal defense. The double-stack design maintains the familiar 1911 controls and ergonomics while delivering modern capacity levels. The polymer grip frame, mounted to a forged carbon steel frame, provides durability and a comfortable shooting platform.

Match-Grade Accuracy

At the heart of the Prodigy is a 5-inch forged stainless steel bull barrel with an 11-degree crown—the kind of precision engineering you'd expect from a competition-grade 1911. This barrel geometry delivers the accuracy needed for serious shooters, whether you're running a match or relying on the pistol for defense.

Optics-Ready from the Factory

The Prodigy features Springfield's AOS (Agency Optic System) mounting plates with an integrated rear sight. This system allows you to mount modern red-dot optics while maintaining a usable iron sight picture. The pistol ships with a HEX Dragonfly-compatible plate, and additional optic-specific plates are available separately.
