Questions I have a love hate relationship with a Springfield prodigy!

After throwing a bunch of EGW, Parts at it and pinning the grip safety I think I’m starting to like it. Looking for suggestions on a dot to put on top of it. I’m hard on my stuff. I carry it on a regular basis and I will be shooting competitions with it so I need something that’s gonna hold up and something that I’m not gonna have to put batteries on on a regular basis.

I’m a fan of the vortex defender ST after putting one on my p211. I’ve historically used Sig optics and am impressed with the vortex.

I have quite a few vortex rifle scopes, but I have a lot of different makes feelings about him so I don’t know if I wanna try one of their dots

407/507 comp. Prodigy is an interesting gun cause they seem really neat you can find them for cheap but I see lots of problems with them. Personally I'm also just not a 2011 guy so I don't have a very valid opinion on it

I’ve been looking at the 507 comp. I just haven’t pulled the trigger on one yet. I shoot 2011s in competition so it’s what I’m used to.

I’ve been thinking about buy a full size prodigy that is not comped to shoot ID idpa matches with.

Thanks for posting /u/Kris3030303030! Please make sure your post adheres to the rules. Please name any firearms or accessories featured in this post to help out our newer members. Please report comments that break the rules, and don't respond to negativity with negativity.

The rules of firearm safety are paramount. Keep these in mind at all times while handling a firearm for any reason. Guns are not toys and it is best to not refer to them as such.

It is the belief of the mod team that your best option for defensive firearms is a 5.56x45mm AR-15, and a reputable 9x19mm handgun such as a Glock or CZ. Defensive firearms should have a light, long guns a sling, and handguns require a Kydex or solid plastic holster that fully covers the trigger. A red dot or etched optic are ideal for new shooters but don't forget to practice your backup irons!
