Hellcat Pro Comp

[MrIllusive]

Hey y’all. First post here but long time Springfield Armory owner. I just purchased a Hellcat Pro Comp. After purchasing thought about hip level firing from the hip, basically from retention. Has anyone done that with this model? I’be never owned a ported or in this case comp barrel. I’m concerned about getting a face full of fouling or hot gas. Maybe it’s a silly question but I’m interested. I’m on the fence about moving into something else. Thanks!

It’s a non-issue.

Welcome to the forum, from Ohio.

Not a foolish question, the answer being the compensator will pose no problem.

Welcome from Florida... I've done just that, when I was working that was a required drill, since retired I do it on the range and it's so low at hip level, you'll feel nothing.

Thank you. That’s good to know. I’ve enjoyed the firearm so far. 3weeks and about 500 rounds in and it’s been great.

Thanks! Florida here too! I was watching the gaseous discharge and it did go fairly high. I’m glad that it is a non-issue. I was not interested in finding another firearm. Most of my firearms are Springfield. Guess I’m just loyal.
