New Springfield Armory Hellcat & XD-M Threaded Barrels
Adam Scepaniak 05.02.23
Within the gun community there are a lot of Springfield Armory Hellcat micro-compact pistols as well as full-frame XD-M handguns in circulation. Some are deployed for self-defense and concealed carry while others are hunting tools and utilized for recreation. Whatever your mission objective might be, if you want a threaded barrel for your Hellcat and/or XD-M you were forced into hunting down an aftermarket one with sometimes suspect tolerances. Now, Springfield Armory is offering their own Hellcat and XD-M Threaded Barrels so you can add all of the suppressors and compensators you like with confidence.
