Sounds like quite the pessimistic point of view. If you are suggesting that 90% of Prodigy's are purposefully sent out junk, and Springfield is paying people to lie, I guess we got different opinions of the company. Perhaps I'm just optimistic because I am looking forward to my purchase, but according to Springfield each pistol is tested before shipped. What happens between those shots and the consumers.....I cant say.
I knew I’d get 1 chit starter. I only stated what was told to me. I never said they paid ppl to lie I said they made sure their sponsor pistols run flawlessly unlike the rest of the masses. Also do you have one? No didn’t think so. Plus I never said tbey are a bad company. I wouldn’t have numerous SA firearms if they were trash. The gun being SA was why I got it on release day.
Thats fair, but rudimentary. I just am getting a sense of the internet doing what it does best and blowing things out of proportion. One guy leads to 10 worrying and so on. If there is actually a mass issue, we will see, and ill be sad.
So, thats really wild speculation and unfair. I was sent a gun to test and nothing was done to it. Are you going to say that Springfield made sure mine ran as well. For you to insinuate that Springfield would fraud users is way off base. What good does it do for Springfield to purposely sell again that does not work. Springfield is only successful if they create life long customers. Customers that buy multiple products, and also tell their friends. Obviously something is wrong with your pistol and it could be as easy a fix or something bad. But one thing is for sure Springfield has already started to take care of it.
Im not trying to start anything. I believe youre having issues with it. I'm just getting down to what you really are trying to say here. Im not trying to attack you but either did you get a lemon or do you think Springfield is up to no good or even incompetent?
You might want to do a quick search and explain why all the issues are the same since you think all these customers are too stupid to operate their pistols. Last I checked the last few SA releases haven’t been very promising anyway.
You must not be seeing the proof I’m seeing out there. AND YES! if you were sent a pistol to review it was made sure it was right before it got to you.That’s with all companies that send out guns like that. Also I never used the word fraud you did. Calm down man.Just saying I’m not the only one with problems and all the issues are the same across the board.You fan boys get so butt hurt when your company screws the pooch on a product.
Admin mode on: we do not do that here. I think you need to take a second to read the forum rules. No one is attacking you and that kind of response is a no go here. We are an open forum that allows questioning to make sure we can help you as much as the forum can. No one is starting anything with you.
I hoped it was just me and I had a lemon but sorry not the case. There’s video after video of the same exact failures I’m having. Only positive reviews are from PAID sponsorships. Maybe it’s coincidental and I’m totally off base but until someone proves me wrong I got to call it how I see it.
I just got accused of bashing a company and accusing them of fraud witch I never did. Now you want to suppress the info on these guns that’s coming out. Maybe put the effort into SA quality control and less effort into a forum and get these products right before taking in your money. I came here with proof and looking for help and I get this from you? My apologies for breaking your forum rule.
Actually you talking about Springfield is well within the rules, telling others they are fanboys and a chit starter is not allowed. And you have been warned.
Well.
I got 600 painful rounds down range not 100. So you know there’s that. Failures every mag in different mags for 600 rounds is a problem. I wish you the best of luck when you get yours.
I wasn’t venting I just asked a question about the prodigy. However these responses are a tell tell sign of a issue in QC.
Any 1911 will need some kind of break in, Kimber for example tells you in there manual about a break in period, to be totally honest, I never did have to break in any Springfield or Colt 1911, Kimber, definitely.
I agree. However there’s Nothing about a break in period in this manual like in others.That being said I still anticipated a break in. But as stated by me and other’s with visual proof the issues are actually worse. My gun had more issues the more it ran. Not 1 clean mag over 600 rds.
I forgot about your post. Squared Trigger guard: I think people had a problem with the trigger guard on the Emissary since it was a classic 1911. Just like you have people that poohpooh the rail on the dust cover. If its not classic 1911 it’s sacreligious. On the Prodigy remember it is a 2011 that was designed as a competition gun. Back then the trigger guard hook and accompanied grip were still in rage. 2011’s never got rid of the trigger guard hook, even with Stacatto’s.
think SA 35, and all the documented problems, and countless not one, but more than one trip back to the factory, many have reposted doing so on this very site, others, on other sites.
