This doesnt seem to be a major problem with the Hellcat.
The industry has embraced the micro 9mm with arms wide open.
As a result, Ive gathered five different holsters for the Hellcat covering a range of carry modes.
To effectively carry this pistol, you need to get a specially designed holster for the Springfield Hellcat.
My focus was on concealed carry in my selection because the Hellcat is clearly a concealed carry gun.
So, without further ado here is a list of my current top five Hellcat holsters.
you’ve got the option to also see my video on them at the top of the page.
The DeSantis Mini Slide OWB holster situates the gun at a slight cant.
OWB Option: Desantis Mini Slide
There is always a place for a classic leather holster.
While kydex is here to stay, the attractive and thin nature of leather is always appreciated.
The passive retention is adjustable via a small screw.
The leather is shaped perfectly for the Hellcat and its a work of art.
Its also functional and very comfortable.
The Mini Slide clings tightly to the body and is nearly effortless to conceal.
The Phalanx Defense Stealth Operator is designed to accept a broad range of pistols.
Its remarkably comfortable and perfect for daily carry if you prefer OWB.
The Desantis Mini Slide is an awesome OWB option and harkens back to the days when leather was king.
This kydex design is rock solid and made to last.
AlienGear’s Cloak Shoulder Holster is good option for carrying your Hellcat in colder weather when you’re wearing a coat.
Its rigid design makes it easy to reholster and draw from.
Its dual metal clip system holds the gun solid and steady for all-day carry.
This is a very modern means to conceal.
The Crossbreed Reckoning IWB can be used for appendix carry, an increasingly popular carry mode.
The Stealth Operator IWB design is an awesome choice for deep and concealed carry.
The Cloak Shoulder Holster uses a custom-molded shell implanted in a leather housing.
This design accommodates your Hellcat and uses a leather thumb clip to retain it.
The Comfort Cling from Clinger Holster can be used as both a pocket holster and also an IWB holster.
The holster is made from leather, and offers tons of flexibility for comfortable carry.
Appendix Carry: Crossbreed Reckoning
Appendix carry is easily the most popular method of carry around today.
The Crossbreed Reckoning holster was one of the first holsters available for the Hellcat and its a show stopper.
Its a rig thats a combination of leather backing and a hard shell.
The hard shell retains the weapon brilliantly and the padded leather shell ensures its comfortable all day long.
The Reckoning uses two metal clips for a secure fit and is effortless to conceal.
The holster uses a passive retention that is very quick to draw from.
The hard-molded shell means you might easily reholster the gun and your draw will be uninterrupted.
I highly recommend reading editor Mike Humphriessreview of the CrossBreed Reckoning.
He had a lot of things to say about the concealed carry rig.
The Clinger Holsters Comfort Cling fits the Hellcat like a glove and is remarkably comfortable.
It slides into the pocket and clings to it.
When you draw your Hellcat the holster stays put, making it quick and clean to draw your weapon.
The Comfort Cling can also be worn as an IWB holster.
Its comfortable when worn like this and it does conceal easily.
The downside is once the gun is drawn you cant reholster without removing the holster to do so.
Conclusion
So there you have it.
