DPM Recoil Reduction Systems - Springfield 1911 DS Prodigy 5" (AOS) 9mm

DPM Mechanical Recoil Reduction System — Springfield 1911 DS Prodigy 5" (AOS) 9mm

Drop-in recoil upgrade for the Springfield Prodigy 5" bull-barrel (AOS) 9mm — replaces the factory recoil rod with a tunable, multi-spring system that improves felt recoil, protects the slide/frame, and speeds follow-up shots without modifying your pistol.

Kit Contents

• 1 × DPM recoil rod (3-spring internal design)
• 3 × external springs (short / medium / long)
• 3 × spacers (short / medium / long)
• 1 × spring plug
• 1 × red pressure plate tool
• 1 × metallic cup screw tool

How it works

The DPM system uses an internal multi-spring rod plus interchangeable external springs and spacers. External springs set the slide-in-battery (closed) force; spacers change the slide-full-open (buffer) force. Mix & match springs and spacers to fine tune recoil impulse and slide behavior.

Power Rates — Slide in Battery (closed) & Slide Full Open (approx.)

Short Spacer (Slide full open ≈ 14.3 lbs)

• Short Spring: 5.00 lbs (closed) — ~14.3 lbs (open)
• Medium Spring: 5.51 lbs (closed) — ~14.3 lbs (open)
• Long Spring: 6.39 lbs (closed) — ~14.3 lbs (open)

Medium Spacer (Slide full open ≈ 18.7 lbs)

• Short Spring: 5.29 lbs (closed) — ~18.7 lbs (open)
• Medium Spring: 5.84 lbs (closed) — ~18.7 lbs (open)
• Long Spring: 6.50 lbs (closed) — ~18.7 lbs (open)

Long Spacer (Slide full open ≈ 21.0 lbs)

• Short Spring: 5.51 lbs (closed) — ~21.0 lbs (open)
• Medium Spring: 6.06 lbs (closed) — ~21.0 lbs (open)
• Long Spring: 6.60 lbs (closed) — ~21.0 lbs (open)
