Springfield Hellcat Micro-Compact 9mm Pistol with HEX WASP Red Dot

When every millisecond counts, your carry pistol must deliver instant target acquisition and uncompromising reliability. The Springfield Hellcat Micro-Compact 9mm Pistol with HEX WASP Red Dot combines a class-leading magazine capacity with a factory-integrated micro red dot sight, giving you a complete defensive system straight out of the box. This ready-to-carry configuration eliminates the need for aftermarket milling or adapter plates, providing a low-profile red dot solution that co-witnesses with the Hellcat’s U-Dot sight system.

Overview

The Springfield Hellcat set a new standard for micro-compact 9mm pistols by packing up to 13+1 rounds into a frame shorter than a standard smartphone. Now paired with the HEX WASP red dot, this package delivers a sealed, aircraft-grade aluminum optic with automatic ambient light adjustment. The slide is optic-ready from the factory, and the WASP mounts directly with no plates required. This is the same platform trusted by thousands of plainclothes officers and civilian carriers who demand deep concealment without sacrificing capacity.

The HEX WASP red dot features a low-profile design that maintains the Hellcat’s snag-free profile. Its automatic brightness sensor adjusts the dot intensity based on ambient light, while the wide field of view window allows rapid target transitions. The slide is machined with front and rear cocking serrations, and the trigger pull is a crisp 5.5 to 6.0 pounds with a short reset.

• U-Dot front sight with tritium insert and rears co-witness through the WASP window
• Loaded chamber indicator and striker status indicator visible on the slide

Who It’s For

This pistol is designed for the armed citizen who carries every day and refuses to compromise on capacity or sight speed. It is ideal for concealed carry under lightweight clothing, appendix carry, or ankle carry where full-size pistols are impractical. Shooters with astigmatism who struggle with traditional red dots will appreciate the WASP’s crisp 3.5 MOA dot, while those new to red dot pistols will benefit from the low deck height that preserves a natural cheek weld. Law enforcement officers seeking a backup or off-duty piece will find the Hellcat’s 13-round capacity and red dot capability match the performance of much larger service pistols.
