The Springfield Armory 1911 DS Prodigy 4.25” Compact AOS Handgun delivers duty-grade double-stack power inside a carry-focused compact layout. Built with a forged carbon steel slide and a weight-saving billet 7075-T6 aluminum frame finished in black Cerakote, this carry-focused pistol preserves the crisp, iconic single-action trigger mechanics of the traditional 1911. At its core is a 4.25" forged stainless steel match-grade bull barrel featuring a durable Black DLC coating and a 1:16 right-hand twist, optimized to deliver exceptional accuracy and flat recoil management. The defensive platform features the highly adaptive Agency Optics System (AOS) plate system, allowing shooters to install low-profile micro red dots while seamlessly co-witnessing with a tactical black serrated U-notch rear sight and a fast-acquiring tritium front night sight. Complete with an extended ambidextrous safety, an integral accessory rail, and a 2-piece full-length guide rod, this compact powerhouse handles standard defensive roles with two included flush-fitting 15-round double-stack steel magazines.
