I have an Apex trigger kit for my Hellcat Pro and absolutely love it! That was an upgrade worth doing ! So much better than the stock trigger . At the time of ordering my APEX HCP trigger Apex did not make triggers for the Echelon unless it was sold out at the time . I’ll check again because if...

Anything that will make a crispier break, smoother reset , and lighter trigger pull

I enjoy my Echelon Comp after putting around 1,500 rounds through it and it feels well broken in. My question is has anybody swapped out the stock trigger on it ? And if so how much better performance did you get from it? I just saw a Tyrant CNC trigger upgrade pop up on my news feed and it just...

Just strange you would complete paperwork and pay for something you obviously didn’t want .. has to be more to the story. Did they force or intimidate you somehow ?

Thank you ! I only own Springfield products (Hellcat Pro, Echelon 4.5F Comp, and now The Prodigy 5 inch Comp) getting to know those 3 in this forum has been pretty exciting . so I’m sure i will remain here lol

I agree ! One of the best things I’ve done since owning my first gun was join this forum

That makes so much sense ! And thank you for the welcome

Thank you for the Welcome and that explanation lol i was like . “ what did i say wrong ? “ lol but i get it now

It’s not a good 1911 to start with ? What do you recommend ? Or maybe I’m to newbie to get the joke lol

I’ve taken a basic course of gun safety and it’s possible they did or did not go over that in class as that seems like a detail they could’ve left out or i didn’t retain as i never had that issue with my other two guns that i ever noticed or remember unless the mag was always out when i press...

That is good to know ! Thank you .. just started shooting as of February of this year so getting my feet wet on a couple different platforms so any knowledge i can get i soak it all in and continue learning at this time in my journey nothing is “ obvious “ yet lol . So i appreciate your input

Great to know ! Yes it had an empty mag inserted . I’ve been reading a few horror stories about this Prodigy and you confirmed what i was reading about it needs to be broken in to perform well so I’ll be racking the slide like crazy the next few days while cleaning / lubing in between before i...

I just recently purchased the 5 inch Prodigy Comp as my first 1911 and noticed when i rack the slide back it automatically locks the slide ? Is that normal for a Prodigy or all 1911’s ? I have to hit the slide release for it to go back . I also own the Hellcat Pro and 4.5F Echelon Comp and with...

Thank you for that reply . I will be new to the 2011’s . Only been shooting striker fired . I’ve been reading 2011’s need to be cleaned/lubed more often ? As of now i normally clean/lube my guns after 300-500 rounds . Would that still be ok for a 2011 ? Or should it be more like after 100-200...

Anybody own this gun? And how do you feel about it ? I want to own a 1911 DS and this caught my eye , but the more reviews i read on it the more issues i see people had with it ( failures to feed and slide getting stuck mainly) , but then i hear that it was the first batch released having issues...
