Springfield Hellcat Micro-Compact 9mm Pistol With HEX WASP Red Dot

When you need a carry pistol that disappears on your belt but delivers full-size performance, the Springfield Hellcat Micro-Compact 9mm Pistol with HEX WASP Red Dot is the setup you have been waiting for. This factory-integrated optic package takes an already legendary micro-compact and gives it a low-profile red dot that co-witnesses with the standard-height tritium front sight. Whether you are upgrading your everyday carry or building out your first concealed rig, this Hellcat variant offers a blend of capacity, shootability, and concealment that is hard to beat straight out of the box.

Overview

Springfield Armory designed the Hellcat to hold more rounds than anything else in its class, and the HEX WASP red dot takes that capability to the next level. The slide is milled specifically for the WASP optic, meaning no adapter plates and no extra height over the bore. You get a crisp 3 MOA dot that turns on automatically when it senses motion and shuts off to save battery. The pistol ships with two magazines—an 11-round flush fit and a 13-round extended—giving you the flexibility to choose your concealment profile. This is the springfield hellcat micro-compact 9mm pistol with hex wasp red dot that serious carriers trust for daily defense.

Features & Specs

This pistol is packed with thoughtful engineering. The slide is forged from billet steel and finished with a durable Melonite treatment. The barrel is hammer-forged and also Melonite-treated for longevity. The trigger breaks clean at a consistent 5.5 to 6 pounds with a short reset that makes fast follow-up shots feel natural.

• Factory-installed HEX WASP red dot with auto-on/motion activation and a 3 MOA dot for rapid target acquisition
• Two steel magazines included: 11-round flush fit and 13-round extended with pinky extension
• Adaptive grip texture that bites hard under recoil but does not snag on clothing during the draw

Additional specs include an overall length of 6 inches, a height of 4 inches with the flush magazine, and an unloaded weight of just 17.9 ounces. The slide features cocking serrations front and rear, and the loaded chamber indicator gives you a tactile and visual confirmation of a round in the chamber. For a micro-compact 9mm, the Hellcat delivers a surprisingly manageable recoil impulse thanks to its dual recoil spring assembly.

• Overall length: 6.0 inches | Barrel length: 3.0 inches | Height: 4.0 inches
• Weight: 17.9 ounces unloaded | Width: 1.0 inch across the slide
• Capacity: 11+1 flush / 13+1 extended | Sights: Tritium front, tactical rack rear (co-witness with WASP)
