    First Look: Springfield 1911 DS Prodigy 9mm

    Well I did get my 5" Prodigy back from Springfield for the second time. They did replace the damaged grip module. I was finally able to take it to the range and see if the issues I initially had were corrected. I must say, the gun ran without issue. I put almost 400 rds through it running...

    First Look: Springfield 1911 DS Prodigy 9mm

    The gun store did not sell me a used gun, that is how I received it back from being sent in to Springfield for repair. Before being sent, no damage to grip module, the damage was noticed within 15 minutes of receiving it back via FedEx and I called them. The gun store just sent it back for me...

    First Look: Springfield 1911 DS Prodigy 9mm

    No there was nothing in the box and when I called them after getting them back, they could not tell me what was done to them. All I know they done was send two new magazines for both guns, they fired both guns. I know they took the 5" model apart for something but they did not fix the...

    They received it on the Friday 09Sep22 and I had them back on Friday 16Sep22. But there was issues with my 5" model and was sent back to them today as my LGS was not able to get it out last Friday or Monday. So who knows when I will get my 5" back again. They have to fix the disconnector and...

    First Look: Springfield 1911 DS Prodigy 9mm

    Well I was able to take my 4.25 model back to the range today after getting it back from Springfield. Today was a totally different experience. I ran 350 rounds through it and only had 1 FTF. The FTF was using the 17Rd Duramag with JHP mixed rounds and the 3rd round failed to feed, stuck nose...

    First Look: Springfield 1911 DS Prodigy 9mm

    I don't know when/where the damage happened but it happened sometime between when sent to Springfield and receiving it back. They sent is back in a small tan gun case that was padded and it was a tight fit for sure. Possibly the 20 rd mag was rubbing on it when so tight in the gun case they sent...

    First Look: Springfield 1911 DS Prodigy 9mm

    Well I was able to contact Springfield first thing when they opened today after the holiday weekend, I must say they were very polite and I explained all the issues I have had with both my Prodigy models. I was provided an RMA # and a FedEx Express return label to ship them both back to them so...

    First Look: Springfield 1911 DS Prodigy 9mm

    I bought both 4.25 & 5 inch models w/o optic. I took them to the range today and was greatly disappointed. First few rounds out of them felt great, then I had nothing but feed and magazine issues. I shot 250+ rounds out of both, I shot Remington, Federal, Winchester, Sig Elite, Sperry Gold Dot -...

    Is the .357 Magnum the Best Option for Personal Defense?

    I was at the range last week shooting my .357 Mag, I shoot .38Special for most of my range time but always shoot some .357 and yes, there is definitely more "muzzle blast". A couple guys shooting 9mm stopped when I was shooting the .357 rounds, after asked what type of fire breathing dragon I...

    Is the .357 Magnum the Best Option for Personal Defense?

    I have .357 Mag, DP100 5" Barrel that I have for home/self-defense and carry on occasion. Definitely a powerhouse to be reckoned with
