EGW Mainspring Housing – Springfield Prodigy – Magwell Ready – Blued
Upgrade your Springfield Prodigy with a precision-machined, magwell-ready mainspring housing designed to improve grip, balance, and overall control. This EGW carbon steel mainspring housing features a durable blued finish and purpose-built geometry for seamless magwell use. As a result, it delivers a cleaner fit, better recoil management, and a more confident shooting experience.
A Stronger, More Balanced Upgrade for the Prodigy
Factory Prodigy mainspring housings are often lightweight and, in many cases, made from polymer. Because of this, the pistol can feel rear-light and less stable during recoil. The EGW magwell-ready mainspring housing solves that problem by adding weight where it matters most—at the rear of the grip—while also providing crisp, uniform checkering for improved traction.
Additionally, the added mass helps the pistol track flatter under recoil. Consequently, the gun returns to target faster and feels more planted during rapid fire.
Designed Specifically for Magwell Use
Unlike standard mainspring housings, this model is engineered from the start to work with magwells. Therefore, the checkering placement and contours align correctly, allowing compatible magwells to seat flush with no gaps, sharp edges, or misalignment. As a result, reloads feel smoother and more predictable, especially during competition or high-speed training.
Precision Machined Carbon Steel Construction
EGW machines this mainspring housing from solid carbon steel bar stock, not cast or molded material. Because of this, it offers excellent strength, resistance to cracking, and long-term durability. Furthermore, the blued finish provides corrosion protection while giving your Prodigy a classic, professional appearance that pairs well with blued or two-tone pistols.
25 LPI Checkering for Secure Control
The 25 LPI (lines per inch) checkering strikes an ideal balance between grip and comfort. It provides enough bite to keep the pistol stable under recoil, yet it remains comfortable during long training sessions. As a result, you maintain consistent control without excessive abrasion.
Improves Balance and Shooting Feel
By replacing the lightweight factory housing, this carbon steel MSH shifts weight rearward. Consequently, the pistol feels more balanced in the hand, tracks straighter during recoil, and delivers a smoother shooting impulse. This improvement becomes especially noticeable when shooting fast strings or performing reloads under pressure.
Installation Notes
This mainspring housing does not include pins or internal springs. However, you can reuse the components from your factory housing or install new parts if desired. Installation is straightforward for anyone familiar with 1911/2011-style pistols, though professional installation is always recommended for optimal setup.
