Just picked up my Prodigy from Southwest Precision Arms after having the Stage 3 Performance rework. Thought I’d post a few pics. I am new to the 2011 platform so I decided to pick up the Prodigy to test the waters, didn’t want to spend Bul or Staccato money out the gate. I put ~1000 rounds down range prior to sending it off. I’ve never experienced a higher end 2011 but I’m in love with this pistol. Reliability was flawless before sending it off. Took it out today and put 250 rounds through it. Reliability was 100% as expected. Recoil was the lightest I’ve felt from a center fire pistol. Of course I’ve now spent Bul money but I can’t imagine getting much more going that route. Total cost was $2500 all in including optic and accessories. Attached File Attached File Attached File Attached File Pictured target is 10rd rapid fire groups at 10 yards. Center mass group is 20rds. |

Center mass group is 20rds. Very nice. I have a prodigy that I had a local smith do an ignition kit and trigger install and am honestly a big fan of the Prodigy. I would rather put money into a production US gun than spend the same amount for something made in the middle east. |
