Springfield Armory is expanding its popular Prodigy line with a new Cerakote Coyote Brown finish. This versatile pistol, available in both 5-inch and 4.25-inch barrel lengths, caters to a wide range of shooter preferences. Whether you opt for the standard or 10-round magazine capacity, the Prodigy offers a blend of style and functionality.

Introduced in late 2022, the Prodigy series has garnered attention for its optics-ready design. The combination of a polymer grip module and a forged steel receiver, coupled with generous magazine capacities, sets this pistol apart. The new Coyote Brown finish adds a fresh aesthetic to the previously all-black lineup.

The Prodigy represents a modern interpretation of the classic 1911 platform, incorporating a double-stack magazine and a host of performance-enhancing features. The Cerakote Coyote Brown finish not only enhances the pistol's appearance but also contributes to its durability and ease of maintenance.

Springfield Armory has expertly blended form and function in the Prodigy's design. The Coyote Brown Cerakote adorns both the slide and frame, while black accents provide a striking contrast. The pistol's ergonomics are enhanced by an Adaptive Grip Texture, like that found on the Hellcat and Echelon models.

A key feature of the Prodigy is its optics-ready design. Springfield Armory has partnered with Agency Arms to develop the AOS (Agency Optic System) plates, which allow for easy integration of various red dot sights while preserving the use of iron sights. This versatility ensures that the Prodigy can adapt to the preferences of any shooter.

The Prodigy's double-stack magazine offers increased capacity without compromising reliability. Whether you choose the standard or extended magazine, you can be confident in the pistol's performance.

“The Prodigy 9mm took everything that shooters love about the 1911 platform and enhanced it with a double-stack magazine and a host of modern performance features,” says Steve Kramer, Vice President of Marketing for Springfield Armory.  “With the new Cerakote Coyote Brown versions, the Prodigy line is now offering fans another must-have addition for their collections.”

With its blend of classic design and modern features, the Prodigy in Coyote Brown is poised to appeal to a wide range of shooters. Springfield Armory has once again demonstrated its commitment to providing firearms that meet the demands of both enthusiasts and professionals alike. The company is offering all four variants of their new 1911 DS Prodigy in Coyote Brown for a suggested retail price of US$1,549.
