TAL:It sounds like you guys know your way around an EDC pistol.
Why did you decide to make a run at do this test with the Hellcat?
TAL:Why did you opt for Hellcat for the test?
We wanted to see if our carry guns could handle this.
TAL:Why did you select Underwood Ammo for the test?
TAL:Can you tell us about the test planning?
CN:The test took a long, long time.
We started in Sparta, Illinois, at the Underwood Ammo facility.
Then, COVID-19 happened.
TAL:How did the pistol do?
My biggest concern was something happening to the barrel in Illinois.
It would be ice cold in less than 20 seconds.
That rapid heating and cooling initially had me concerned, but it didnt affedt the gun at all.
Every part on the Hellcat held up, and we couldnt have asked for better results.
TAL:How did the ammo perform?
CN:The Underwood Ammo was flawless.
TAL:Thats an interesting point you made.
How did you guys hold up during the test?
Was it as punishing a process as one would think it would be?
It was brutal, but mostly due to the weather at both locations.
Oh, and the blisters.
But the gun was manageable to handle, even with the powerful +P ammo from Underwood.
TAL:What did you learn from the test?
Did it differ from any expectations you had going into the project?
CN:We learned that we should have more than two people shooting!
Surviving that many rounds of +P ammo is a feat, but we and the Hellcat pistol did it!
TAL:Did this test have any effect on your opinion of the Hellcat pistol?
TAL:Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with us on this impressive test.
CN:Happy to be a part of it.
So, there you have it.
