I'm not ready to modify my slide just yet and the plate I got is only .045″ thick which really doesn't make the optic sit that much higher. Added a picture for reference, you can barely notice the height the plate adds. Also I should probably have mentioned the adapter plate came with its own...

My 507k finally came in, as well as my optic mounting plate. The plate came with instructions to torque everything to 20in/b. The 507k's instruction manual says to torque to 15in/ib. I'm assuming I should go with the optic's recommended torque? Any recommendations from someone who has mounted...

Anyone have a recommendation on a decent torque wrench I can use for installing a pistol optic? Looking for something I could also use on rifles since I'm getting one of those soon as well.

Are you trying any other optics out or are you just sticking to irons now?

Thanks for the info. Will probably be ~two weeks before I post a pic I opted for the 7-10 business day free shipping and not entirely sure when the adapter plate I purchased ships since it may be backordered.

FYI the updated model of the Holosun 507k-x2 is back in stock. They're getting bought up like crazy but I was able to find one online still in stock on Rainier Arms website. Paired with this adapter plate: https://chpws.com/product/springfield-hellcat-to-holosun-407k-507k-adapter-plate You can...

I bought the Klipt holster since I had my eye on it before this article came out. I'm currently in a position with my Hellcat where I want to carry it in a holster (was pocket carrying before) but I'm still deciding on a WML. I am waiting to see if the market brings in any new lights for micro...

The 507k looks great, and as you said it was torture tested by Sage Dynamics. It's currently the only micro red dot on the market that has been proven to be durable enough for conceal carrying. The Trijicon RMR cc probably is as well, haven't seen tests on it but they have their patented ears...

You should check out Sage Dynamic's video on the 507k. Personally I feel that Trijicon screwed up their entry to the micro red dot market. I do not want an optic that's going to sit absurdly high on my slide. Even if the RMR cc was the same price as the 507k I'd still go with the 507k...

Here's a good video on why you should always have one in the chamber when you are carrying. It's just a series of examples where not having one in the chamber resulted in serious injury or death. The short of it is that it is very possible that a self defense scenario involves you only having...

One extra mag but am going to start carrying a second spare mag. After watching these riots closely I can easily see situations where one mag just isn't enough. Example if you were in Rittenhouse's situation with only a handgun and one mag you likely wouldn't have survived. To pull off a similar...

That's his own fault. If he's going to pull you over in the torrential rain then he needs to be the one who gets out in the torrential rain to ticket you. Expecting you to get out and get dunked on as a bonus for getting a ticket was pretty low. I could understand maybe if you were driving...

That's a pretty alarming flaw and I hope it's just an isolated fluke. The reason I've held off on purchasing the Sentinel is that there is no data available that I'm aware of that shows how durable it is. I haven't seen any drop testing or any other info on its ability to handle bumps or drops...

From the article: Blade-Tech Klipt IWB Holster I'm eying this one as a temporary holster until a decent WML comes out for the Hellcat. Is this actually a safe holster for carrying one in the chamber? It's not kydex, it's some cheap unknown plastic. Does it have the strength to not deform...

I don't doubt their product is high quality since they have the nerve to charge so much for it, but it's just a WML I don't need it to make me breakfast and do my laundry. I need it to sit on my gun, function reliably, and put out lumens. A PL-mini 2 can do all 3 of these things for $80 and it...

At $329 it's nearly a dollar per lumen. There are better lights available that offer twice as many lumens for 1/3rd the cost. Not sure what they were thinking when they made this at this price point. If it were say, $80 I'd consider it.

So if there is no harm to the slide's ability to accept other optics in the future then what purpose do the posts that must be removed even serve in the slide to begin with? There's no downside at all to making these modification to the Hellcat slide?

I'm trying to decide between the Holosun 507k and the Swamp Fox Sentinel Aaron Cowan reviewed the 507k and it did pretty well in his torture testing. My problem with the 507k though is that you either need to modify the slide or get a filler plate. The filler plate ruins the ability to...
