The Springfield Armory Hellcat took the gun world by storm when it was first introduced, offering the highest capacity available at the time in a micro-sized 9 mm pistol. Now Springfield Armory is offering the Hellcat in the Rapid Defense Package (RDP) configuration. This setup pairs the Hellcat with a HEX micro red-dot sight for fast target acquisition and a muzzle compensator for rapid, accurate follow-up shots. In addition to this, the Hellcat RDP now as an optional ambidextrous manual safety for those who prefer to carry a gun in that configuration.  

DeSantis has been developing, designing, and manufacturing holsters for a wide variety of guns. Now they are taking their skill and knowledge, along with high-quality American-Premium hides and the tough synthetic materials, and applying to building new holsters and accessories for the Springfield Hellcat RDP, with or without a manual safety.

The DeSantis Slim-Tuk for the Springfield Hellcat RDP is a minimal ambidextrous Inside the Waistband (IWB) holster. The holster uses the unique tuckable 360 degree C-Clip, which gives the wearer unlimited mounting options for their gun. The hardware can easily be reversed to change from right to left-handed use. The Slim-Tuk is precision molded from a sturdy Kydex sheet and features a nylon clip for belt mounting.

The DeSantis Mini Scabbard fits belts up to 1 1/2 inches wide and has the essentials of a good concealment holster, such as tough construction, a precise gun fit and minimal printing. The Mini Scabbard maintains your gun’s security due to its pin-point molding and a customizable tension device, allowing you to dial in the retention that's right for you and your gun.

MSRP for the Slim-Tuk holster for the Hellcat RDP is $34.99, and the MSRP for the Mini-Scabbard holster is $63.99. More information on these products and other gear from DeSantis holsters is available at desantisholster.com.
