Hellcat Pro Viridian Package

Viridian Weapon Technologies has partnered up with industry giants Springfield Armory and Sportsman’s Warehouse to start shipping a unique bundle consisting of the 9mm Springfield Armory Hellcat Pro “slimline” pistol that includes a mounted RFX11 green dot reflex sight and the brand new Custom CTL Tactical Light, which Viridian specifically designed for the Springfield Armory Hellcat Pro. This pistol, reflex sight and tactical light bundle is going to be sold exclusively through Sportsman’s Warehouse store, both in person and online.

The Springfield Armory Hellcat Pro is Springfield Armory’s “biggest” smallest gun, as the Hellcat Pro is considered a slimmer design that still holds 15+1 rounds of 9mm. Besides being the biggest member of the Hellcat family, the Hellcat Pro is also optics-ready by default and uses a Shield RMS-c footprint pattern. The Viridian Weapon Technologies is an open emitter reflex sight that utilizes this optics footprint, making a great choice for the Hellcat Pro. The RFX11 uses a CR 2032 coin battery and provides 30000 hours of runtime and is considered a micro dot because it uses the smaller Shield RMS-c footprint. The new Viridian CTL light has a 525 peak lumen output (17,000 candela), up to 60 minutes of run time, an internal rechargeable battery with magnetic recharge port, instant-on and ambidextrous activation/deactivation and an all-aluminum construction.

My friend and I have a few different handguns we use on a regular basis. Some are for competition, some are for personal defense, some are for casual shooting and I even hunt big game with a handgun.
