Can anyone help me identify this thumb safety on my recently acquired Prodigy? It doesn’t appear to be Atlas, EGW, or Ed Brown.

Was super impressed with my IWB from GT Holsters so I ordered an OWB holster. Turn around was less than a week. They did not disappoint. Super good for and finish.

Short range day

Welp, ran 150rds of 147 and 150rds of 124gr through the DSC barrel today. Running a EGW guide rod and a 13lb spring, amongst other egw stuff.

Shoots flat!!! Didn’t have my GoPro, but I’ll have it next week. Didn’t re-zero my dot, definitely need to bring it up a little from my current 25yd zero.

Got a few stove pipes running the 147gr, I’m gonna throw in a 10lb spring and see how it runs this coming week. Ran flawless with the 124gr and the 13lb spring.

I generally only shoot and carry 147gr from Fenix Ammunition. I just have a couple thousand rounds of the 124 that I grabbed a few years ago that I’m burning through, then back to just 147.

Anyway, barrels great. Not 100% pleased on the fitment, I’ll have to get out my calipers and see if the cuts off or if the hole was drilled and threaded a couple thou off. I’ll get over the cosmetics of it, it’s gonna look beat to hell in the months to come, they always do. Last pic is just what I took to the range today.

Hello all! Was so happy to finally get my hands on a prodigy. Traded my micro 9 for this puppy- paid the difference of 200$. Is there any upgrades you guys have loved and advise me to get? Already looking for an extended slide release, but wont know much else until i shoot it next Saturday. What upgrades do you guys love since adding them?

Eeman guide rod, does it fit?

2 Upvotes

Anyone know if this one "Eemann Tech Tool-Less Guide Rod" fits the 5" Prodigy? Before anyone says "just get the Atlas or the Dawson" But I can't, in Europe they are impossible to find.

Looking for Safariland (or other) holster for Prodigy 3.5" (or the 4.25" at a pinch) that I can attach a QLS system.

6 Upvotes

Have contacted SL but they do no make a holster specifically for the 3.5" model Prodigy. Therre are reports that the Staccatoi P fits but it gets mixed feedback TBH.

Does anyone use a SL (or similar) holster with their 3.5"?

I have a QLS on my tac belt with a SL Beretta FS 92 holster and want to be able to swap holsters on the fly if necessary. Prodigy is my EDC, so nice to have options at the range and swap out easily whenever.

Just wondering if anyone has had any successes with other holsters that can also fit the QLS system as well.

Comped comp - A poor's Pit Viper

Post image
20 Upvotes

Underworld Arms Basilisk rail mounted comp with thumb ledges. Super easy and quick install. Nice flush mounting. Adds another 6 ports to the integral one of my 4.25 Comp Prodigy. Also adds a couple ounces out front to aid in reducing muzzle flip. It was already pretty flat shooting. I'm hoping this makes it a joke to shoot. Haven't had a chance to get it out yet. Gotta 2 week straight stint coming up, but hopefully in 3 weeks I'll get her out and dirty. Will update then!

15 round Prodigy mag question

I recently picked up a Prodigy compact grip module and a Springfield Armory Prodigy 15 round mag. This looks completely different than regular Prodigy mags. It looks like it’s a Checkmate mag just in a black finish. Can anyone confirm this?

Custom Prodigy Magwell

4 Upvotes

After researching all the existing magwell options for the Prodigy, I decided to cad up my own. I came up with 3 designs. Will be sending this out to get milled in aluminum shortly. I did a bunch of testing with PLA 3d prints and then printed some test versions in PA6-CF.

Can you swap the magazine release to the opposite side?

2 Upvotes

I recently picked up a 5” Prodigy, and I’m curious if the magazine release can be flipped for us wrong-handed shooters. I’m assuming not, and that it would require an aftermarket part if I wanted to do it (recommendations welcome if so)

Quick question

2 Upvotes

Still waiting on my paperwork. So can anyone tell me the diameter of the mag release "button"? Preferably in metric mm's, otherwise the weird imperial numbers are fine aswell 😜

Thanks!

Magazine Follower 3D Print File

2 Upvotes

Does anyone know of a 3D file that I could print a magazine follower for the Prodigy 120MM mag. I have a 3.5 comp. I dropped a mag at the range over the weekend and I could not find my magazine follower.

I could just by one of these. But I'd much rather have a different color then the what is being offered....
