Crimson Trace LaserGuard for the Springfield Armory Hellcat pistol.

The Springfield Armory Hellcat is a powerful micro-compact pistol that holds up to 15+1 rounds of 9 mm ammo. That amount of rounds on-hand is a comforting feature in a defensive pistol, but all the ammo in the world won’t help you if you can’t get your shots on-target when it matters the most.

Now Crimson Trace is releasing two new models of LaserGuard for the Springfield Armory Hellcat pistol. The new LaserGuards are available in either a red laser or green laser versions to give you more confidence in those times when everything is on the line.

Both models of LaserGuard are built with the Instinctive Activation technology that has made Crimson Trace a major force in laser sighting devices. These new LaserGuard are activated with a button that is positioned underneath the trigger guard on the pistol where the middle finger naturally sits when you have a good firing grip on your gun. The body of the sight is designed to not get in the way of you manipulating your gun, and special care was taken to make sure the texturing on the sight matches the texturing on your Springfield Armory Hellcat.

The red laser and green laser version of the LaserGuard are powered by a bottom-accessible 1/3N battery that has up to two hours of continuous run time, along with a master override switch that prevents activation when the laser is not necessary. The laser sight is user-adjustable for windage and elevation with the included adjustment tool. Built with a durable polymer, the laser is water-resistant and comes with the Crimson Trace Crimson Protect Lifetime Warranty.

MSRP for the red laser LaserGuard for the Springfield Armory Hellcat is $259, and the green laser version is $314.99. For more information on these products or other gear from Crimson Trace, please visit crimsontrace.com.
