The Hellcat features multiple high capacity magazines, an exclusive Adaptive Grip texture, a flat face trigger, an U-Dot tritium sights. The new FDE Hellcat comes in an optics ready version as the original Hellcat did. The Hellcat with the U-Dot sights will retail for $610 MSRP. The Hellcat Optics Ready will retail for $643 MSRP.

Below is the press release and features of the Springfield Armory Hellcat FDE.

Press Release

GENESEO, ILL. (06/10/20) – Building on its strength as the highest capacity micro compact 9mm in the world since its launch in 2019, Springfield Armory® is proud to announce an exciting new variant of the Hellcat® in Desert Flat Dark Earth (FDE). It is being offered in both standard and OSP™ versions.

The Hellcat was an immediate hit upon its release late last year, offering shooters and CCW enthusiasts a paradigm-shifting combination of high-capacity and compact size as well as the ability to mount an optic. The result was a pistol that fully lived up to the mission statement established by Springfield Armory CEO Dennis Reese when he said, ‘Every detail of the Hellcat has been shaped by a singular mission — to deliver the definitive concealed carry handgun.
