Also I handled a Prodigy at my LGS I snapped the safety on and off a couple times, racked the slide pulled the trigger, racked the slide snapped the safety on and it stuck in the halfway position and wouldn't budge and no other part would either. Since my Emissary had to return to the factory 3x to get it to run this most recent experience and some of the documented Prodigy experiences is scaring me away from Springfield. I don't want to spend $1500 on a pistol and hope that it works. I'll save up for a Staccato instead.
