The Springfield Armory 1911 DS Prodigy 9mm 17+1 4.25" Tungsten Gear Up Package PH9117AOSBT-PKG (UPC 706397987053) takes the iconic 1911 platform into the modern era with double-stack capacity, a tungsten Cerakote finish, and an optics-ready slide — then sweetens the deal with five magazines and a premium range bag right in the box.
This 4.25" Prodigy model delivers a performance-driven feature set designed for serious shooters who want a competition-capable, duty-ready 9mm 1911 that’s ready to go from the counter straight to the range.
Double-Stack 1911 Performance in 9mm
Reconfigured around a double-stack magazine system, the 1911 DS Prodigy offers modern capacity in a familiar single-action 1911 package.
Caliber: 9mm Luger
Capacity: 17+1 (with included double-stack magazines)
Action: Single-action 1911, crisp trigger and short reset
Platform: 1911 DS (Double Stack)
You get the proven ergonomics and trigger characteristics of a 1911, paired with modern magazine capacity for range work, competition, or defensive roles.
Gear Up Package – 5 Magazines & Range Bag Included
This Gear Up configuration is built for shooters who actually plan to shoot — a lot. Unlike standard Prodigy packages, the PH9117AOSBT-PKG Gear Up bundle includes:
Having five mags out of the box means you’re ready for classes, matches, or high-volume practice sessions without scrambling for extra magazines later.
4.25" Bull Barrel with Match-Grade Potential
At the heart of this Prodigy is a 4.25" bull barrel designed for accuracy and fast follow-up shots:
The heavier bull profile helps the gun return to target quickly while delivering match-grade accuracy potential for competition or precise defensive shooting.
Tungsten Cerakote Finish on Forged Steel
The Tungsten Gear Up version stands out visually and structurally:
Forged carbon steel frame and slide for strength and long-term durability
Tungsten Cerakote finish on frame and slide for a sleek gray tone and outstanding wear and corrosion resistance
Textured black polymer grip module mounted to the steel frame, offering a secure, controllable purchase in all conditions
This combination of forged steel and Cerakote delivers a pistol that looks premium and holds up to serious use in training, matches, and carry.
Optics-Ready AOS Slide with Quality Iron Sights
The Prodigy is built optics-ready from the factory using Springfield’s AOS (Agency Optic System):
AOS optics mounting system with removable plates for popular red dots
Plates come with an integrated rear sight, keeping a proper co-witness iron sight picture even with an optic installed
Fiber optic front sight and serrated rear sight for fast target acquisition and reduced glare when running irons only
Whether you’re shooting irons, a red dot, or transitioning between both, the Prodigy’s slide is designed to keep your sight picture clean and intuitive.
Ambidextrous Controls & Accessory Rail
Springfield set up the 1911 DS Prodigy for modern defensive and competition needs:
Ambidextrous thumb safety – ideal for left- or right-handed shooters and useful in classes and shared-use environments
Integrated Picatinny accessory rail on the dust cover for mounting lights or lasers
Extended beavertail grip safety and ergonomic grip angle for classic 1911 control
These features make the Prodigy just as at home as a bedside pistol or duty gun as it is on the competition line.
Ergonomic Double-Stack Grip Module
Despite its double-stack 17+1 capacity, the 1911 DS Prodigy is designed to feel surprisingly slim in hand:
Textured black polymer grip module provides secure traction without being overly abrasive
Modular design mounts to the forged steel frame, keeping the classic 1911 feel while boosting capacity
Contoured frontstrap and undercut trigger guard help promote a high, controlled grip
The result is a double-stack 1911 that many shooters find easier to control and more comfortable over long practice sessions than traditional single-stack setups.
Ideal Roles for the 1911 DS Prodigy 4.25" Tungsten Gear Up
With its mix of capacity, barrel length, and feature set, this model is well suited for:
Range and training pistol – plenty of mags, great sights, and manageable recoil in 9mm
Competition and action shooting – double-stack capacity, optics-ready slide, and a match-capable bull barrel
Home defense setup – accessory rail for a weapon light, ambidextrous safety, and high on-board round count
The Gear Up package makes it particularly attractive for shooters who want a ready-to-go system with multiple mags and a transport bag included.
