The Springfield Armory 1911 DS Prodigy 3.5" AOS brings the high-capacity double-stack Prodigy platform into a shorter, more compact 9mm configuration while retaining a full-length grip and 18+1 round capacity. Designed for shooters who want 1911-style controls, a match-grade bull barrel, and modern optic capability in a more maneuverable package, this model is well suited for range use, competition-style shooting, and lawful defensive applications.
This Prodigy pairs a forged 3.5-inch stainless steel match-grade bull barrel with a black DLC finish, a forged carbon steel optic-ready slide, and a billet 7075-T6 aluminum frame. Springfield's Agency Optic System (AOS) uses interchangeable optic plates to support multiple red-dot footprints, while the full-length polymer grip module provides the capacity and handling characteristics of the larger Prodigy models. A tritium front sight, black serrated rear sight, ambidextrous thumb safety, captured recoil system, beavertail, and Picatinny accessory rail complete the package.
