The Springfield Armory Hellcat 380 ACP is a micro-compact pistol engineered for reliable, low-recoil concealed carry. It takes the proven Hellcat platform and adapts it to the softer-shooting .380 ACP cartridge, making it an excellent choice for shooters prioritizing comfort and controllability. Since we started stocking it in Q1 2025, it has consistently been a top performer in our micro-compact category.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this model optics-ready?
Yes. The slide comes milled from the factory with an optics cut, ready to accept a micro red dot sight without the need for aftermarket machining.
What magazines are included?
It ships with two magazines: one 11-round flush-fit magazine and one 13-round extended magazine, providing flexibility for carry and range use.
How does the recoil compare to the 9mm Hellcat?
The .380 ACP chambering significantly reduces felt recoil and muzzle flip. This results in faster follow-up shots and a more comfortable shooting experience, especially in the micro-compact frame.
