Take home a new Springfield Armory Echelon, Hellcat or Hellcat Pro between February 1 and April 30, and you can qualify to receive—at no charge—up to $320 worth of accessories ideally suited for that purchase. The company’s latest a “Gear Up” promotion features a Crimson Trace CT-1500 red-dot optic, three extra magazines (for a total of five with the pistol) and a high-quality Springfield Armory range bag.

“Springfield Armory’s popular Hellcat, Hellcat Pro and Echelon 9mm pistols have established themselves as strong performers within the self-defense and EDC communities,” said Steve Kramer, vice president of marketing for Springfield Armory. “With this new Gear Up promotion, customers will get the added value of three additional spare magazines, a capable red-dot optic and a high-quality range bag to go with their preferred pistol.”

Springfield’s Echelon 9 mm set a new standard for modern, striker-fired duty pistols. With a host of patent-pending features, Springfield Armory's modular Echelon handgun is designed around a robust stainless steel chassis and revolutionary optics mounting system. Engineered with superior ergonomics and built to withstand the harshest conditions, the Echelon is available in full-size and compact variants.

The Hellcat series of 9 mm pistols offers CCW enthusiasts a handgun that combines impressive capacity with proven performance. Featuring a best-in-class capacity, the pistol is available in 3" models as well as the RDP (Rapid Defense Package) variant that adds in a high-performance Self Indexing Compensator and threaded barrel. The slightly larger Hellcat Pro extends the barrel to 3.7" and lengthens the grip for increased capacity and enhanced ergonomics.

The Crimson Trace CT-1500 red-dot included in this Gear Up package is a compact reflex optic that direct-mounts to the slides of the Hellcat OSP, Hellcat Pro OSP and Echelon pistols. This lightweight and capable optic features auto-dimming and runs on a single CR2032 battery.
