Overview

Springfield Armory designed the Hellcat RDP (Rapid Defense Package) to address the growing demand for micro-compact pistols equipped with red dot optics. The 3.8-inch barrel length provides a longer sight radius than standard micro compacts, while the overall dimensions remain suitable for concealed carry. The included HEX Wasp micro red dot is specifically engineered for the Hellcat slide, eliminating the need for adapter plates and maintaining a low bore axis. This package is assembled at the factory, ensuring the optic is properly torqued and zeroed before it reaches your Ohio FFL dealer.

Who It’s For
