DO NOT BUY A HELLCAT BEFORE WATCHING THIS: 4K Overview and Range Review Comparison Hellcat/XDs/Mod.2 

All I can say is if you are thinking of buying a Hellcat. Make sure you pull that trigger as much as you can before you buy give it a thorough run through so you know it's safe and works for you. Above all it's a safety issue. I trust my 40 plus years of shooting experience to know there was a problem with mine. If you purchase this gun I hope it is safe and you enjoy it. Also my experience in dealing with Springfield was the worst I've ever had with any firearms manufacturer. Stay Safe. More and more people are finding this problem.

Trigger works fine. And if you train with the firearm properly you shouldn't have issues. This is a great firearm.

I like that you brought attention to an issue without screaming "this thing is a piece of shit!!!" That helps way more than the latter. I'm probably still going to get one but I'm glad you put this info out there.

So.... you had to properly shoot the gun for it to fire? I've never met anyone to shoot a firearm by pressing sideways one trigger. I guess I just confused on how this is a "Major issue".

I’m here reading these comments.. y’all are funny FR. it’s called an opinion and I for one am glad for it . This video is very insightful for me. I’m 👀 looking to purchase my first concealed carry . I’m an Oklahoma resident and I feel the need to carry everywhere I go With how the world is. I’m kindve ashamed to admit that I didn’t carry in the past. But I will be now . Point is this video did it’s job and discussed everything about this pistol pros and cons . Thanks -

Nothing wrong with this trigger. The is video's on RU-vid show many guns on here acting the same way when you use them incorrectly. I noticed you didn't have any issues with live fire and neither has anyone else. I have one and have put hundreds of rounds thru mine, and never once had this or any other issue. I also have seen a video putting 10,000 rounds thru this gun, and they never experienced this issue either. They were using multiple shooters. This issue isn't an issue.

So is the XDS obsolete? Hellcat smaller, higher capacity, better sight, etc.

Interesting review.... thanks man!

I have a hellcat and I can honestly say that trigger nonsense is bullshit. You proved that when you were doing your splits

Is your springfield xds mod 2 a 9mm? I have a single stack 9 mod 2 3.3 barrel

glad i watched this video before buying. that trigger thing is a deal breaker. gonna try to find a mod.2. i think they stopped making the double stack mod.2s so maybe the used market...

Mines work just fine!

Hellcat is a NOGO for me with that trigger issue. Me just being a regular guy who shoots for fun and doesn’t put himself under high stress situations for shooting I want all the odds in my favor if push comes to shove and I have to defend myself .

Actually he makes a point Glocks don’t do that They should probably see if they could make it less sensitive to side pressure And a lot of people have large hands and anybody with large hands probably would rather not chance that side pressure sensitive but if you have small hands looks like it’s good to go you can thread the needle unless you’re really in shock and it’s a possibility it could have failure

TGS, which adapter did you use to mount the CT laser? They are numbered one through four..Thx.Fixed my Hellcat trigger thanks to you..You Rock!

I’ll bet most angry comments are from people with hellcats and have got around that sensitivity side pressure but still I would rather have a Glock trigger on that thing at least it wouldn’t do that

Absolutely HATE that sight! Can't stand the glock ones either

I've been trying to decide whether or not to pull the trigger(pun intended) on buying this pistol, so in researching it, I ran across this video. Thanks for pointing this out! All the negative comments here seem to be people who've spent $500 on a pistol and CAN'T STAND that someone is pointing out, plainly and clearly, that their new purchase may not be the best choice, so they cry like babies about it! Man up! This video plainly shows that you CAN cause this pistol not to fire by pulling the trigger "wrong". This is a design problem, plain and simple! You should not be able to produce a failure by pulling the trigger "incorrectly". When the shit hits the fan, all the muscle memory in the world won't mean a thing if real Fight or Flight hormones are flowing. Murphy's Law says you WILL pull this trigger "improperly" at some point. Then you become a casualty. All you Hellcat fanboys are doing by ignoring this, and even worse DEFENDING this problem is showing your stubborn pride. The guy isn't a Springfield hater. He has no ax to grind. He showed the problem on video. It is a REAL problem. But you don't want anyone to think that you would be dumb enough to make a mistake, so you just double down on it. That is really stupid.

The point about the trigger is crystal clear in the video. Very Valid Point.

You should look into the CZ p10 sub compact. Way superior to the Hellcat.

that’s it! That’s the last guy I need to hear say that about the trigger, I will go with the Sig P365!. I have an XD subcompact 40 1Gen but i carry it in the fall & winter, sping and summer it's the Shield 9mm but I am looking to upgrade my M&P shield 9mm.. i wanted the Hellcat because my Springfield XD is so reliable but it looks like i'm gonna have to go Sig on this one

Mine trigger locks every time I come from my holster to fire. It would definitely not fire if you were wearing a glove. This firearm needs recalled because in a high stress situation you will not have a perfect trigger pull.

Unless the 2.0 is better and less complicated im out

Stay with Glock problem solved

Ill never but this gun to complicated
