    Going to the range today with a buddy. He wanted to try out my Pro as he and his dad looking at buying a new pistol.

    I’m finally going to scrap the wasp optic on my OSP. It’s too bad that Springfield couldn’t get it right.

    What optics are you folks using on your Hellcat?

    Hellcat pro. Currently Crimson Trace CTS 1500. I will also have the Viridian RFX11 like @Squirt. I have friends with the smaller non pro models who swear by the Holosun 507K. I’ve heard good things about the Vortex Defender. Not sure about the Viridian yet but the CT is a bottom battery. The Holosun and Defender are top battery (1632) so you don’t have to remove the optic to change batteries. That being said, the CT is okay. It does not have definitive clicks in adjustment but I don’t know if Holosun or Vortex do either. Still sighting in the CT was good and it held its zero. Both the Viridian and CT can be had for under 200.

    Yah the Holosun 506k with a plate is currently my top pick. I was looking at a similar optic for my lever gun as well.

    Let there be light! Time for a new holster. I love my Vedder. Very pleased with the way it feels and how it secures the pistol.

    When I ordered mine from Vedder, I took a chance and added “the claw” They said it would improve conceal ability. I was skeptical to say the least. It works. The belt pulls the grip back toward my body without impeding my ability to draw. I’m packing a few extra pounds so it’s harder to hide/draw anything especially while tucked in. I’m able to comfortably carry at 3 o’clock with little to no discernible print.
