I picked up my Hellcat Pro about 2 months ago. Added a Crimson Trace red dot (no modifications or plates) and installed the Apex trigger. Still breaking her in with under 300 rounds, but it has been rock solid so far. Great video all around.

Excellent video as always. I want to add to the conversation about the recoil buss. Yes they are too tall and I’ve had people comment about filling them down just enough for the Holosun to fit flush. My issue there is the diameter of them is nowhere near large enough compared to the holes in the optic. That means they won’t give the stability under recoil they are supposed to give. Adding a plate is the only way to go. People cry about plates and how they create failure points and co witness. I don’t think any of that matters compared to using a good optic and it being stable

@parunbelhomme

11 ай бұрын

Thanks a lot Mike. You're right about the diameter of those posts. However, for whatever reason, mine seemed a bit too far apart for the sockets to even cover the tip of those posts. Couldn't tell if the sockets were out of spec or not. I failed my CNC certs lol. I've seen videos of people filling those front posts down. Thought about it, but didn't want to risk it with my friend's unsteady hands 🤣. I must admit that I never had issues with plates before, until I had to work for them. FN and S&W will just give them all to you at no extra charge, which is great. But now companies like Walther will have you request one, and wait for it to arrive whenever it does. The other issue I've run into is finding the right screws depending on the optic and plate you use. For instance, when I mounted the Gowutar (RMR footprint) on my friend's M&P, I had to go through 3 different types of screws to find one with the most threads of engagement. The recommended screws were too short. I'm talking 2 to 3 threads going in the slide, at most. While, S&W offers one of the deepest holes I've seen so far. Believe it or not, I had to do the same thing with my 509. On the comped slide, I'm running a 507C with screws recommended for one of the Vortex optics (Razor or Venom) just to get more threads of engagement in the slide. Don't ask me how I know. Let's just say, I never thought I'd spend $15 on a single screw. That still hunts me to this day lol. And rumor has it, that recommended RMR screw is still laying on the ground somewhere, in a range far, far away...

I just put my hell cat pro on layaway today.I don’t care for the p365x which I gave to my son.I prefer a pistol I can get a full purchase on.Currently I’m carrying a Glock 19 gen 5 til I get my Hellcat pro.

The U notch which I first thought I'd like, is taking more getting used to than expected because so used to Glock sloping grip angle. But everything else about the gun is excellent and that's why I'll soon mount a red dot.

Yeah it's a bit squishy but not in places where it counts for the most part. The slide release presses in a little from the flex when the magazine is out I've noticed. That would be my biggest con with the squish. The other I noticed was how easily the front rail flexes. I haven't found it to be an issue though an ran it at the range with a tlr-7x just fine.

After long talks after a few months we concluded that the 320 was not going to make a home with us since it had a 'hair' trigger that we both felt was too easy to engage unknowingly even under stress of firing actively.
