Double stack 1911's

[Doc45]

I bought a 5? Prodigy a year ago. The shop had 4, I checked them all out and picked the one with the best trigger, 4.3 lbs, and the smoothest slide/frame fit/function. I have made 4 subtle changes: an EGW slide release as the factory piece is too thin for me to engage with my thumb, a front night sight, one piece guide rod and a steel mainspring housing.

It?s been flawless with every type of ammo I?ve tried and very accurate. I normally keep a TLR-1 HL light on it and it?s the first one out of the safe and close at hand in my truck. Couldn?t be happier with it.

The 1911 has been my preferred pistol since I learned to shoot 56 years ago, have a few higher end versions and enjoy the Prodigy almost as much as them.

Here it is with one of my Les Baer pistols (bought on this forum btw) from recent range outing
