The article on "Continuous Precision Custom 1911 DS Prodigy" by Andy Grossman explores the surge in popularity of double-stack 1911 pistols, acknowledging their allure but also their often high price tags. Among the market, the Springfield 1911 DS Prodigy stands out for its affordability, offering premium features at a reduced price. This model, priced at $1,499, is significantly cheaper than some high-end alternatives without compromising on its impressive performance and aesthetic appeal.
To enhance the Springfield 1911 DS Prodigy further, Customization through the expertise of Continuous Precision and Great Lakes Custom Works is considered. Continuous Precision specializes in machining slides and manufactures various gun components such as sights and basepads. The customization aimed at improving aesthetics and functionality included a complete breakdown of the Prodigy, application of precision machining on the slide, addition of a silver DLC coating for durability, and adjustment of the grip with unique texturing. These modifications are designed to enhance both the grip and operability in diverse shooting conditions.
Ultimately, the customization raised the Prodigy's performance, with features like a tri-cut slide and additional serrations enhancing both the visual appeal and handling during shooting. The enhancements gave the Prodigy, dubbed "Prodigy 2.0," an edge in handling and usability. The work resulted in a complete package that, although now priced at $2,200 with customizations, remains competitive against higher-priced alternatives.
