A Threaded Barrel and Compensator for Your Hellcat Straight from Springfield
The Springfield Hellcat quickly became one of the most popular every day carry pistols in America upon its release. Now Springfield Armory is happy to offer a standalone addition for your Hellcat that can improve your performance even more. This drop-in barrel is designed to work with any standard configuration Hellcat 9mm pistol (NOT compatible with Hellcat PRO) and the barrel features a black Melonite finish for rust-resistance and increased lubricity. Additionally, the barrel includes 1/2x28 threading and comes with a compensator and thread protector. This compensator is designed to reduce muzzle rise and felt recoil, translating to increased control and better accuracy with follow up shots. It is machined from 8082 aluminum and features a self-indexing design which requires no shims or other parts to be properly timed.Springfield Armory Hellcat Barrel Specifications and Features:

Fixed the snappiness
I bought this after shooting the P365 Macro Comp hoping to get better recoil control and less snap. The Hellcat barrel makes this a fantastic shooter that kicks the P365’s butt. Follow up shots are much faster and easier and the gun is easier to control. I use the same conceal holster and there aren’t any issues. I’m 5’-10” 170lbs and have no problem IWB carrying with this. It’s a 10/10, but it if you’re reading this.

Will it work and not look crazy in the compact?
Answer:
Hi Mitchell! This 3.8” barrel is designed to work with any standard configuration Hellcat 9mm pistol. Springfield specifies it for use in any 3" Hellcat pistol configuration (will not fit the Hellcat Pro or the California specific version of Hellcat: model HC9319BOSPCA). In short, if you have a Hellcat Micro-Compact, then this barrel is specifically made for it.
