About the Cartridge

This cartridge was introduced along with the Luger semi-automatic pistol. The pistol and cartridge was first adopted by the German Navy in 1904 and then by the German Army in 1908. This cartridge has since been adopted by the military of practically every non-Communist power. It has become the most popular and widely-used handgun cartridge in the world. Performance wise, the 9 mm cartridge has somewhat more power than the .38 Special but falls well short of the .357 Magnum.

Great

Hellcat is a very well rounded pistol. It it very well suited for EDC. Now I will start to rotate my EDC to a "3" gun rotation. Originally purchased to use as a backup, but has surpassed my expectations!

Second to one

The hellcat excels in capacity; a robust shooter that eats any ammo you put through it. A range pistol you can actually practice with and carry! Springfield Hellcat won't disappoint. Felt recoil seems stronger than Sig's P365; width dimension is notably wider also. Otherwise a strong second to one...Sig's P365.

Very Good...but not quite

Had this gun shot 300 plus rounds through it. Liked it okay, but I couldn't really like it the way I want to have it be my carry gun.
