Springfield Armory is a storied name. Its lineage stretches back to America’s early days, more than two centuries before the genesis of today’s Hellcat pistol.

The original version of Springfield Armory was a military weapons storage facility in Massachusetts, ordered by George Washington in 1777. In 1795, they added arms production capability for the fledgling nation’s armed forces, and this practice continued for 173 years.

After the facility ceased operations in 1968 and was subsequently declared a National Historic Site, a small gunmaker in Texas began using the name to take advantage of its notoriety.

In 1974, the L. H. Gun Company officially became Springfield Armory, Inc. and moved to Illinois.

Though the name is the only thing they substantively share in common, the modern private company gives a nod to the historic military armory’s legacy by wearing it.

Today, Springfield sells several lines of rifles and pistols. Just before SHOT Show 2020, they announced a new handgun model: the Hellcat.

For this micro-compact’s design and production, Springfield returned to their friends in Croatia, HS Produkt, with whom they’d previously partnered on the XD series.

Shipping these diminutive guns with a 13-round magazine and an 11-rounder, Springfield advertised their newest pistol as “The highest capacity micro-compact 9mm in the world.” The Hellcat’s size is comparable to SIG SAUER’s P365 or the Glock 26, and both of those handguns use 10-rounders as their standard, baseline mags.

However, it’s not uncommon for shooters of these models to employ optional extended 12 or 15-round magazines, so the “highest capacity” claim can fairly be taken with a grain of salt.

That said, keeping a 13+1 9mm capacity contained in just 4.5″ of height by 1″ wide is a solid offering, and the market took note.

The original Hellcat was generally well received, and has sold its fair share of units. Our own Adam Scepaniak loves it, and it’s garnered some awards from around the industry.
