Defiance Armory

1911 Tradition, Double-Stack Innovation

For shooters who want classic 1911 performance with modern upgrades, the Springfield Armory Prodigy offers a compelling mix of heritage, capacity, and cutting-edge features. Available now at Defiance Armory, this double-stack 9mm pistol blends familiar ergonomics with serious firepower and competition-ready performance.


Why We Like It

The Prodigy is built for shooters who want more from their sidearm — more rounds, more control, and more capability.

  • Double-Stack, 9mm Power
    With a higher-capacity double-stack magazine, the Prodigy gives you the benefits of 9mm in a platform that holds more rounds than a traditional single-stack 1911. It’s a great fit for range days, competition, or home defense.
  • Classic 1911 DNA
    This pistol retains the crisp trigger, slim profile, and intuitive controls that make the 1911 a favorite. If you know and love the feel of a 1911, the Prodigy will feel like home — but with extra firepower.
  • Optic-Ready Platform
    Whether you’re running irons or a red dot, the Prodigy is ready. The slide is cut for optics out of the box, giving you the flexibility to build your setup your way.
  • Built-In Compensator
    Integrated into the slide, the Prodigy’s compensator helps manage recoil and muzzle rise for faster follow-up shots and flatter shooting. It adds real performance value without adding bulk.
  • Match-Grade Barrel Options
    Available with either a 4.25-inch or 5-inch barrel, both options are built with match-grade precision for superior accuracy.

Who It’s For

The Prodigy is ideal for:

  • 1911 fans ready to explore a modernized double-stack version
  • Shooters looking for a competition-capable 9mm platform
  • Concealed carriers and home defenders wanting more capacity without sacrificing control
  • Anyone who values precision, feel, and shootability in a sidearm
