Finally a comparison between the two. Thank you. I currently carry a Hellcat w:RMSc. I just wish Springfield would sell the barrel and comp separately. Hopefully soon.
How can you justify that as an EDC? Not in this category. This takes the hellcat out of micro pistols and into tacticool fan boy territory for dudes who wish they where military and can’t shoot iron sights. Just my opinion.
@@MrJimmyWiles you can still use iron sights if the dot failed. Comp can come off as well so for the price this is a great edc. That said I have a staccato C2 I use just irons and it’s the only one I use now.
@@EmbracetheRecoil 👎 No sorry. I'm not that interested in the Hellcat, this compensated version was a slim possibility. You (the video maker) just knowing of one holster maker for the above version of the Hellcat... well that say enough. MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎄
The Sig Romeo Zero is the plastic sight you might have been thinking of. The Shield RMSc is an aluminum housing, but I believe but the lens is polymer. The Holosuns are all 7075 aluminum with good glass except the T models that are titanium. Also I think this gun is sexy, especially with a Dead Air Odessa on it for those secret agent vibes.
I was really disappointed that they do not offer a barrel/compensator kit for existing Hellcat owners. I was more disappointed in the shitty attitude given to me by their email support when I asked that question. I love my Hellcat, I hope SA gets their shit together and puts out an aftermarket upgrade kit.
@@metsnyc7797 The response was a very curt "not at this time." So maybe never? It would have been nice if the guy had asked someone in production if they had any plans. The situation seems really crazy to me. They release what amounts to some aftermarket upgrades, but you can only buy them if you spring for a whole new gun and optic? I'll pass. What really burns me is I got my original Hellcat just 6 months ago as a double stack upgrade to my Shield 2.0. And if that isn't bad enough, S&W just dropped a double stack version of the S2.0 last week. I should have started a RUclips gear review channel...
@@warriorofjustice3020 Yeah! That sucks!! Hopefully they’ll release it. I did see the shield plus with 13 round capacity and flat face trigger. It also has upgraded stippling which I’m glad cause the stippling on the 2.0 and M&P Compact are like sand paper. I do love the stippling on the Hellcat though. It would be nice if SA offered the compensator in FDE to match the FDE Hellcat but now I’m really asking for too much! Lol properly for next year!
This is the 1st time ive had a notification from your channel in a very long time. Good vid keep it up! Edit: so maybe this is your 1st YT vid in 9 months. If your on a different platform let me know I'll follow you there
Great channel. Your review was excellent. You deserve a much larger channel. Hitting the subscribe and like buttons, takes little effort, so do it. Good work ETR.
@@EmbracetheRecoil A lot of folks take your hard work for granted. It takes time and Your money to produce the content. The least EVERYONE can do is like and subscribe. I get tired of seeing views outnumbering the subs..It's just wrong...
Great video. I am by no means a new shooter, as a matter of fact I have been carrying my concealed revolver, yes revolver, for about 28 years now. I agree, you were right about shooters wanting dots, etc. nowadays. New shooters like them but for many older shooters the dots help out the aging eyes. I only used my first red dot on a rifle about a year or so ago and now have them on several firearms. One thing I have noticed is that a lot of new shooters do not shoot well with iron sights. That's a problem if their battery goes out or their dots get damaged in real world situations. Everyone should be proficient with iron sights and then enjoy red dots and other optics. As of today I switched over my EDC to a optics ready Hellcat. I wanted something small, reliable and optics ready. I originally wanted the P365 but they only offer optics ready in the X and XL models. Those both are a little bigger in size. I'm very happy with the Hellcat. That compensator looks great and seems to do a good job, but it, along with the longer barrel does add a lot of length to a sub compact gun. For me concealability is the most important thing as I am in a climate that is hot year round. I just found your channel and you do a great job of covering many different things, especially for a young man..... Good job!! Glad you found out about the other dots having aluminum housings as well. Since 80% of your viewers don't subscribe I made sure to like and subscribe. Well done. 👍
Maybe I'm wrong about this, but I feel like the majority of any effect that the RDP compensator has on recoil is due to its weight and size. The ports are just so small compared to its overall size and compared to the size of ports on other "carry" comps.
Love your videos. 100% getting a Hellcat as my next purchase. Only problem is I can’t find one and not sure if I should wait to see if prices drop back down.
Well good luck hope you make 10k real soon. I don't think it looks that bad maybe if they went two tone but otherwise looks alright-still not that much bigger. More vids please.
@12:09 you said you're getting the extra barrel. Does it come with the 3.8" threaded AND the 3" standard barrel if you want to keep it as a micro compact? You also called it a big gun twice and you like to carry a big gun. I'm a Hellcat owner and I bought it because I didn't want big. I already own big guns that will manage recoil a lot better than an comp Hellcat.
@@EmbracetheRecoil full disclosure. Your comparison of the Hellcat, 365 and 43 is what influenced me into buying a Hellcat last summer. Great video. But in this video you did say this the kind of gun you carry, big. If you own a HC get the RDP so you have a big gun and a small gun. And that's not to criticize you. I think you're right in you comparing the 2. The question I see with this gun is why? Now that you stretched it to 7" does a comp HC shoot better than a non comp G43X MOS? Better than a Canik Elite SC? 365XL? Point is they just took a micro gun and stretched into the sub compact class and now they're in a class with a shitload more choices. Not saying it won't sell. Today you'll get top dollar for a sling shot and a bag of shiny marbles. But if this gun came out pre pandemic it'd be as dead as the grip zone gun.
I have a 911 .45 and love it. I am 6’9” w big hands. I really want a gun to conceal. I really like the looks and your video of the RDP. I’ve also considered the FN 5.7. Is there any others to consider or is the RDP the way to go.
@@EmbracetheRecoil but either way good video! Seen one today and held it for the first time. I myself don't like any springfield but... Something about this one. Had a soft spot for the hellcat when it came out but went with the 43x and the 48. But this model might of convenienced me to buy one wanted to watch some reviews first. Yours was the first video I watch and I'm sold already 🤣. Keep up the good work! 👍
I guess Springfield doesn't sell the threaded barrel and comp separately. Already have the Hellcat, would like the comp as I have smaller hands than other guys... and I'm getting old.... doesn't help in maintaining the meat block pistol grip. Don't make me take a drill to the slide. Naaa, I wouldn't do that.. but srsly, I need a comp that doesn't require lock thread or hold stiff... or shims.
Thank you for finding doing a comparison on original and the new version. I'm gonna be honest, I came very close I'm purchasing this but I'm glad I didn't. Smith and Wesson shield plus performance center got it right with ported barrel to help the recoil. Maybe comparison of the hellcat RDP and the Shield plus performance center?
Just bought a Hellcat on Saturday. They had a Red Dot on another model But without the Comp. I'll probably pick up an RDP after I find one, then I'll have two lol
They look identical When your shooting. The muzzle flip and kick look identical. ? The regular hellcat is a way better buy I unless you want the sight then it’s worth it to buy this one as it’s similar price for the gun and sight and you get the comp
Thanks for the content! I have not found any information for Hex optics prior to the inclusion on this gun. Wondering who makes this optic?

Battery compartment on bottom of optic? -sucks.
Same here, it’s a day 1 purchase for me when FDE hits. I’ve seen one channel reviewing it say that they asked SA and the response was that they hadn’t planned on it.
@@alexsmith0013 dude, I may have done the same thing! Can't remember if it had the safety or not. My osp hellcat I bought a commiefornia version without realizing it. I really should pay attention more. 😂🖖

@@JacksonWalter735 My Hellcat OSP is being delivered today and my buddy did just that. Bought the Sentinel. Problem is that all the red dots kind of suck :( There doesnt seem to be any real choices for anything 4+ stars or up :(
Already have a Hellcat but I really do like that no one I was planning on getting a second handgun my hellcats my absolute favorite gun of all the ones I have. I was saying like getting a revolver but now I'm thinking I might get that new Hellcat
Thanks for the content! My factory Hellcat trigger was not good trigger even compared with the lower bar set with most striker-fired pistols. FACTORY HELLCAT TRIGGER Take up fairly smooth, medium travel. (OK) Wall is distinct and pronounced. (Great) THEN the trigger has varying amounts of creep to the break. (Awful) Medium to long reset (ok to poor) Reset is audible and tactile. (Very Good) The WORST part was that IF you happen to roll your finger into the shoe before completely compressing the safety blade, the safety blade would catch the frame and prevent the trigger from operating. For a CCA gun, I think this is unacceptable. I have NEVER had any other pistol have this issue. Now, I was able to take a needle file and whittle down the catch point to fix this issue in under 5 minutes. Liked everything else about the gun. This really seems to be the best pistol that HS Produkt has ever made! ... So I got the APEX trigger installed and I think it is worth the money. APEX TRIGGER FOR HELLCAT Shoe is not as far forward and at that weird angle as the factory one. (Good) Take up is smooth and shorter (though heavier - I really liked this feel) (really Good) Wall is distinct and pronounced (Great) Although less, it still has a fair amount of creep though seems to break a little cleaner and is more predictable (little less than ok) Shorter reset (Pretty Good) Reset is audible and tactile. (Very Good) Safety blade does not have the binding issue! (Great) -- Still the after market Apex is still not close to being as good as a factory trigger in a Canik Elite, HK VP9, or Walther PPQ/PDP.
I now have a Hellcat RDP to sell that my husband bought me. I was insistent upon the Hex Wasp because that is the only way I understood the gun to be made when it was released earlier this year. I watched videos on it and had been waiting for a long time to get a Hellcat. Once I saw the RDP, of course I had to have that one. Unfortunately, neither my husband nor the seller on Gbroker seemed to be aware that every RDP did not come with a Wasp. Very disappointed. We went back on GBroker and bought the version I wanted. Haven't made it to the range, but looking forward to firing this gem. Also, I saw that Springfield came out with 15 round mags about a week or so ago, so I bought two.
Bro gtfo lol holosun a plastic rmr bro really .. holosun is up with trigicon yet again I own and use a rmo6 type2 and the holosun 507c multi reticle and nothing cheap about 400 plus holosun to 775 to a pistol I paid 925 for and it came with one.

@@EmbracetheRecoil thanks. Good review
Thanks for the content!
I have not found any information for Hex optics prior to the inclusion on this gun.
Wondering who makes this optic?
Doubt it is 'Springfield', as they make 1911s, M1 and put together some ARs, they are not known to innovate and import all modern pistols from HS Produkt in Croatia.
(Hellcat is the H11 from HS Produkt)
The optic looks pretty cool, but I really need to see if it is something that I want to trust my life to on a carry gun.
(Will wait for a real optic review from Sage D!)
Until I hear anything different, I will speculate that Springfield found a 3rd-tier Chinese maker that normally sells its wares on Amazon to build this optic...
Battery compartment on bottom of optic? -sucks.
The battery life on the lowest setting is 65,000 hours so You wouldn’t be changing it that often :-)
is the trigger pull heavier on the RDP than the original hellcat?
I don’t believe so. I believe they are both 5.5 and the new trigger is just a smoother show

My factory Hellcat trigger was not good trigger even compared with the lower bar set with most striker-fired pistols.
FACTORY HELLCAT TRIGGER
Take up fairly smooth, medium travel. (OK)
Wall is distinct and pronounced. (Great)
THEN the trigger has varying amounts of creep to the break. (Awful)
Medium to long reset (ok to poor)
Reset is audible and tactile. (Very Good)
The WORST part was that IF you happen to roll your finger into the shoe before completely compressing the safety blade, the safety blade would catch the frame and prevent the trigger from operating.
For a CCA gun, I think this is unacceptable.
I have NEVER had any other pistol have this issue.
Now, I was able to take a needle file and whittle down the catch point to fix this issue in under 5 minutes.
Liked everything else about the gun.
This really seems to be the best pistol that HS Produkt has ever made!
... So I got the APEX trigger installed and I think it is worth the money.
APEX TRIGGER FOR HELLCAT
Shoe is not as far forward and at that weird angle as the factory one. (Good)
Take up is smooth and shorter (though heavier - I really liked this feel) (really Good)
Wall is distinct and pronounced (Great)
Although less, it still has a fair amount of creep though seems to break a little cleaner and is more predictable (little less than ok)
Shorter reset (Pretty Good)
Reset is audible and tactile. (Very Good)
Safety blade does not have the binding issue! (Great)

Still the after market Apex is still not close to being as good as a factory trigger in a Canik Elite, HK VP9, or Walther PPQ/PDP.

I don't think it's ugly at all
I now have a Hellcat RDP to sell that my husband bought me. I was insistent upon the Hex Wasp because that is the only way I understood the gun to be made when it was released earlier this year. I watched videos on it and had been waiting for a long time to get a Hellcat. Once I saw the RDP, of course I had to have that one. Unfortunately, neither my husband nor the seller on Gbroker seemed to be aware that every RDP did not come with a Wasp. Very disappointed. We went back on GBroker and bought the version I wanted. Haven't made it to the range, but looking forward to firing this gem. Also, I saw that Springfield came out with 15 round mags about a week or so ago, so I bought two.
