Springfield Hellion Thoughts (with video)
Hey guys,
Picked up a Hellion. Shot it a bit and I have some initial thoughts....
Pros
1. Nicely Made. HKish quality.
2. Accurate. Shoots sub 2moa with 55grain Cheapies.
3. Interesting
4. Reliable with garbage steel ammo.
5. AMAZING IRON SIGHTS. Best in the business.
6. Smooth shooter
7. Fantastic charging handle design. Way better than just about anything else.
Cons
1. Expensive
2. Horrible Trigger. Better than FS2000, worse than everything else including the AUG.
3. N0 chrome lined barrel.
Neutral
1. Mag release. It's just different.
2. Safety. While it is counterintuitive, it actually has the benefit of not riding your knuckle like most modern guns.
3. Bolt release. Not quite as good as a Tavor, better than the AUG
Let those who are fond of blaming and finding fault, while they sit safely at home, ask, ‘Why did you not do thus and so?’I wish they were on this voyage; I well believe that another voyage of a different kind awaits them.”
