Ed Brown Fueled® Prodigy™

For over 50 years, Ed Brown has set the standard for the highest quality 1911 parts and handguns.  We've continually looked for ways to improve, taking full advantage of modern technology, and have re-engineered every part in the 1911 to ensure the absolute best performance. So what happens when we apply our philosophy and experience to other handgun platforms? They become "Fueled® by Ed Brown".

We start with a platform that shares the characteristics we desire - ergonomics, functionality, and reliability. The next platform of choice for this series is the Springfield Armory® Prodigy™.  Custom features on the Fueled®  Prodigy™ are detailed below.

ED BROWN BEAVERTAIL

The Memory Groove Beavertail Grip Safety was designed by Ed Brown in 1980's and has since been widely copied. More shooters specify the Ed Brown Beavertail than all others combined. Our grip safety is fully machined from stock for unbeatable quality. It gets your hand as deep into the gun as possible, which reduces felt recoil because it better aligns the centerline of the bore with the axis of your forearm. It also improves natural pointing ability, leading to better accuracy. The Memory Grooves cut into the raised pad on the rear for the perfect grip every time.

Shaped for shooting comfort, the lever is angled slightly to keep the thumb from contacting the slide and has a double angle to fit the thumb perfectly. Uses a special hammer pin to hold the safety securely.
