Introducing the Hellion from Springfield Armory, a firearm that redefines the expectations of semi-automatic 5.56mm performance with its bold and innovative design. The Hellion embraces a bullpup configuration—a design where the action is positioned behind the trigger—allowing this rifle to maintain an overall length of just 28.25 inches while housing a full-length 16-inch barrel.
This compact engineering marvel ensures superior maneuverability without compromising ballistic efficiency. The Hellion features ambidextrous controls coupled with a reversible case ejection system, making it equally adept for right or left shoulder firing—a boon to versatility in dynamic scenarios.
Chambered in 5.56x45mm NATO (.223 REM), this sleek black powerhouse includes several key components tailored for precision and adaptability:
- Barrel: A robust 16" CMV Melonite® barrel with a precise 1:7 twist rate
- Sights: Integrated flip-up sights; front sight adjustable for elevation and rear sight featuring a five-position aperture windage adjustment
- Bolt Carrier Group: Proprietary Melonite® finish ensuring durability
- Gas System: Two-position adjustable short stroke piston, optimizing reliability across conditions

- Handguard & Grip: Polymer M-Lok® handguard paired with BCMGUNFIGHTER™ Mod 3 grip for comfort and control
