Q & A
Is the Hellcat 380 ACP optics-ready?
Yes. The slide is milled from the factory with the Springfield Micro optic footprint. This allows for the direct mounting of several popular micro red dots, including the Hex Wasp and Dragonfly, without requiring an adapter plate.
What magazines are included?
This pistol ships with two magazines: one 11-round flush-fit magazine for maximum concealment and one 13-round extended magazine that provides a full firing grip. Both are constructed from durable stainless steel.
How does the recoil compare to the 9mm Hellcat?
The 380 ACP chambering results in noticeably less felt recoil and muzzle flip. This makes the Hellcat 380 ACP easier to control during rapid strings of fire, which can aid in accuracy and faster follow-up shots, especially in a micro-compact frame.
