Coming soon from Air Venturi is the Springfield Armory Hellcat Pro CO2 BB Pistol. It’s described as a 1:1 replica with realistic ergonomics.
The 1.25 Lbs weight and 6.5 Inches overall length are very close to those of the firearms original. Plus, the $79.99 Street Price is very attractive in the current market.
The Hellcat Pro is a compact, “optics-ready” 9mm pistol. This BB-firing version also includes an “optic cut” and adapter plate to allow micro red dot sights to be easily attached to the metal slide.
The pistol is designed to offer a realistic blowback effect , even when fired with a red dot attached to the slide. (The additional weight of the slide makes that technically more difficult to achieve).
Air Venturi will make available a dedicated red dot sight for the Hellcat Pro. That will include adjustable windage and elevation, together with two brightness modes. It mounts directly to the threaded optics plate included with the pistol.
In addition, there’s also a mini Picatinny rail in the underside of the frame, ahead of the trigger, to attach a laser or light. Again just like the firearm original.
The Hellcat Pro is powered by one, 12 Gram CO2 cartridge located in the pistol grip. There’s also a 17-round drop-free magazine. Many shooters will be pleased to know that spare magazines will also be available.
The CO2 wrench is built-in to the pistol grip back plate so that it doesn’t become lost in use.
In addition to the blowback action, the Hellcat Pro offers single/double action operation, plus a manual safety.
The Muzzle Velocity is listed as being up to 390 FPS and there’s a 90-day warranty.
The Hellcat Pro CO2 BB Pistol joins the XDE and Mil-Spec 1911 models in the expanding range of Springfield Armory replicas from Air Venturi. It’s due to be available in Summer 2024.
