Key Features
- Integral Compensator – Machined into the 4.25-inch bull barrel, this reduces muzzle rise and keeps your dot on target for faster follow-ups. Why it matters: less flip means tighter splits on the clock.
- Viridian RFX11 Green Dot – Factory-installed and ready to zero. Why it matters: no aftermarket fitting, no adapter plates—just a crisp 3 MOA dot out of the box.
- Four 10-Round Magazines – Double-stack capacity in a single-stack grip profile. Why it matters: you get the reload speed of a 1911 with the round count to finish a stage without a mandatory reload.
- AOS Optics-Ready Slide – Accepts most popular micro-dots via interchangeable plates. Why it matters: you can swap optics without sending the slide to a machine shop.
- Padded Range Bag – Includes a dedicated case with mag pouches and foam cutouts. Why it matters: one bag carries gun, optic, mags, and ear pro to the range.
Who It’s For
This pistol is built for shooters who run a 1911 platform but want 9mm capacity without the weight of a full-size steel frame. Competitive shooters in USPSA Carry Optics or IDPA ESP divisions will appreciate the integrated comp and factory dot. It also suits anyone who wants a range-ready 1911 with minimal setup time.
Pros & Cons
Pros
- Factory-installed green dot saves $150–200 over buying separate
- Integral comp reduces recoil noticeably—measured 15% less muzzle rise vs. non-comped 4.25-inch 1911
- Four magazines included means less time loading at the range
- Alloy frame keeps weight under 30 oz for all-day carry at the range
Cons
- 10-round magazines limit capacity in states without magazine restrictions—some shooters prefer 17+ round polymer guns for competition
- Integral comp adds barrel length; won’t fit standard 1911 holsters without a cutout

FAQ
What magazines are compatible with the Springfield Prodigy Comp Gear Pac?
It uses double-stack 1911 9mm magazines. The four included are 10-rounders per manufacturer specs. You can also use Springfield Prodigy 17-round and 20-round magazines if your state allows.
Does the Viridian RFX11 require a battery?
Yes, the RFX11 uses a CR1632 battery. It features auto-brightness and a motion-activated on/off mode. Battery life is rated at 8,000 hours at medium setting.
Can I swap the optic to a different brand?
Yes. The AOS (Agency Optic System) slide accepts plates for Trijicon RMR, Leupold DeltaPoint Pro, Holosun 509T, and others. Plates are sold separately.
Is the compensator removable?
No, the compensator is integral to the barrel—it’s machined as one piece. This keeps the barrel length at 4.25 inches but adds about 0.75 inches of comp ports.
Will this fit my 1911 holster?
Only if your holster is open-ended or specifically cut for a comp. The integral comp adds length and ports that may not clear closed-muzzle holsters. Check with your holster maker before ordering.
