Despite holding up to 14 rounds of 9mm, the Hellcat is slim and trim enough for unobtrusive carry. Put your finger inside the triggerguard and place your finger on the trigger, and the safety comes off automatically. Keep your finger clear of the trigger, and the gun is on safe.

This modest blade serves the same purpose as did manual safeties on combat handguns of yesteryear. The Hellcat’s primary manual mechanical safety visible on the outside of the Hellcat is built into the trigger. A bladed safety on the face of the Hellcat’s trigger ensures it cannot be depressed until you place your finger against it. I recommend reading Massad Ayoob’s piece on the Hellcat as the best backup gun for police, and the amazing story about the two married off-duty officers who stopped a robbery a Raising Cane’s restaurant. In fact, the Hellcat is proving to be a very popular CCW firearm for civilians, as well as a great back-up gun for law enforcement. Sorry, an error occurred and we could not sign you up. It is simply that the gun’s redundant mechanical safeties are tucked away inside where you can’t readily see them. The lack of a grip safety, however, in no way means the Hellcat is unsafe. While many other Springfield Armory pistols sport a grip safety, the ultra-compact Hellcat does not. Springfield Armory pistols such as the XD-M Elite Precision 5.25″ (left) feature a grip safety, while the Hellcat (right, shown with 13-round magazines installed) does not. If you really want to turn capacity up, add a Hyve magazine extension to squeeze 1-3 more rounds into those mags.

The impressive new Hellcat packs a full fourteen rounds of 9mm firepower (with the extended 13-round magazine, included along with the standard flush-fit 11 rounder) into the same volume lesser guns might use to tote half that. The micro-sized 9mm Hellcat offers shooters a reliable and powerful compact EDC pistol. Perhaps an in-depth explanation is in order. Nowadays, however, the Hellcat can be had with as much or as little manual mechanical safety as you might desire as well. The Hellcat sports a variety of intrinsic safety mechanisms. One of the recurring questions I receive is does the Hellcat have a safety? Depending on your perspective, the answer is both yes and no. I have access to literally everything the industry produces, yet it is Springfield Armory iron that rides underneath my scrubs. There’s a lot to love about Springfield Armory handguns.
