Hellion™ - Springfield Armory®

- Опубліковано 4 жов 2024
- Answering the call for superior ballistic performance in a short, adaptable platform Springfield Armory is proud to announce the Hellion. Featuring a “bullpup” configuration where the action is located behind the trigger, the Hellion features an overall length of just 28.25-inches while still possessing a 16” barrel. The Hellion sports ambidextrous controls that work in concert with a reversible case ejection system, allowing it to be easily fired from either shoulder. The result? A 5.56mm that combines portability with performance.
You are going to love this rifle...greetings from Croatia
Are they made in Croatia?
@@sumeshkuriakose They are for the Cro army...Civilian version is probably partly made in Cro and some things are american made per their import laws
@@ivosimic9900 you're correct, its 80% made in Croatia with 5 parts American tommake it 922r compliant
I can't wait to get my hands on it. It looks like so much fun.
@@sumeshkuriakose its the VHS-2 made by HS Produkt in croatia. just like the HS Produkt H11 aka the Hellcat or the HS2000 aka the XD series.
truth is, springfield acts all american and shit, but outsources a lot without telling their customers - which is probably a good thing, as HS Produkt is far more competent at making guns than springfield is.
Thanks for always coming out with ambi guns. Left handed people will always appreciate this
We do I will be getting one ASAP!
Damn right
Thank the guys in Croatia who designed, and, build the thing, HS Produkt in Karlovac, Croatia. Same guys who build all the XD series pistols.
Thats nice wouldn't mind having 1
Thank HS Produkts.
Springfield has upped their game. First with hellcat and then this looks sick too.
I don't have much experience with bullpup rifles but this thing looks damn nice!
I’ve never wanted a Springfield Armory product so badly in my life! That thing is sick and it’s got one BADASS name!
well its not really a springfield. its the VHS-2 from HS Produkt in croatia.
I absolutely love this rifle. It was priced fairly and fulfilled all my FAMAS fantasies while improving in the model in every way.
Springfield done it again, this Hellion looks beautiful. My wish list keeps growing.
This is my dream rifle. I need to escape California. Love this rifle.
Just got mines and absolutely love it.
I've been saying that Springfield should do this for years
And they did
Cap
It's finally here!
I remember you saying something about it years ago.
I just wish it wasn't Springfield...
Springfield has stepped up their game lately.
It's always nice to see innovation in the firearms market, even if it's just a bullpup. Love to see non-AR style MSRs.
@@YorktownUSA Yeah... Springfield can get bent. They stepped in, and the doubled down the stupid when they got caught. They can go the way of Colt for all I care.
...and they haven't stepped up anything. Springfield doesn't make these. They simply import them... From Croatia. In fact, they import almost twice as many firearms as they actually manufacture.
HOLY SHIT! That is awesome! I will definitely put it to the test against my Tavor X95!
Can't wait for the video!
Which one is better?
I’m a Southpaw, I made the change myself to the left ejection port, and it was easy. The trigger and accuracy are great. If you have a problem with either one then it’s you, not the rifle. In closing, I love this rifle - it was made for me!
It’s good to see the Springfield Armory introduce more good products. Cheers! XD 👍👍👍👍
Wanted one of these since vickers covered the vhs. Didn’t think it would ever be imported.
Very nice 👍 now please keep importing as many as possible to keep up with the demand, I love my XDM and other Springfield guns that I have, so this will be another wonderful Croatian gun to add to my collection. With the price around $1100 msrp I’m VERY excited about getting one here soon as long as it’s not sold out. I’m not paying a mark up price on GunBroker for it, so let’s hope they can keep up with demand so I’m not forced to look at other bullpups. I’m interested in getting one soon, so staying with Springfield and knowing I’ll get a reliable well made rifle while not having to sell my kidney to get it would be nice. What a way to kick off 2022 and Shot show. I hope to see many thousands of these imported, because I need to get my hands on one this year.
If you like the xdm, you will love the xdm elite. I traded my xdm in and liked the elite so much i bought the xdm elite osp and the precision version. And they have 22 rd 9mm mags standard
As a lefty I salute you!
LEFTIES SHALL RISE, ALL 1 IN 10 OF US
Shoot Lefty
Vote Righty.
Looks like range time fun too me 😁
Please make a bunch of these so I can get one next year!
1st bullpup I've seen I'd consider owning!
Beautiful!
Good look finding this and the SA-35 in stock this year . .
Or next year
I was fortunate on getting the SA-35 early December for $680 back in my hometown. Now I got this and the Ronin EMP 1911 to add on this list.
Finally got one, I love everything but the safety. Hopefully there will be a aftermarket one.
Thank you for delivering this rifle via next day delivery for clandestine operations.
I loved this rifle while in deep operations in Russia before the Ukraine war. The bullpup was easily concealable. Please send my regards to the sales team for the suppressor and compensator. You didn't have to deliver the rifle in person. But, I remember the supreme effort before my civilian flight.
When I was under extreme pressure, this rifle assured or calmed me down against the enemy.
Thank you.

'Based on' feels like a liiiiiiittle bit of an understatement.
Oh Hell Yes! Where can I buy one NOW??? It'll be my Birthday present from my wife.🤭🤭🤭
😂
Does she know that she is buying it for you. Congrats.
@stylin60es To be Honest. It'll be a Birthday/36th Anniversary Day Present/Valentines Day Present (same day). I've already ordered her Presents. And if I to say so myself. I kinda outdid myself.
@John Band Yes. It'll also be a 36th Anniversary/Valentines Day Present. On the Day. I've ordered her Presents already. I think I did a pretty good job.
@John Band Hey John. Yes, She knows. It'll be a combo present Birthday/36th Anniversary/Valentines Day(Same Day). I've ordered her Presents already. And think I did a pretty good job.
Nice! I live in NY so I'll have to enjoy other people shooting it on UA-cam.
NY, CA and CHI are GREAT reasons to move to Florida
ive been following this rifle so many years . cant wait to get one
unless you work at Springfield. No you haven't lol this is the very first announcement of this model
@@Arshin53 it is based on Croatian Army VHS2, standard service rifle
@@Arshin53 HS Produkt has been producing many of these years ago has a good track record of reliability and user ergonomic Currently Iraqi army are using it
@@Arshin53 This rifle has been out since 2013. Springfield is only bringing the civilian model (something many people have asked for).
@@stipe_ramo it's literally on their site lol everyone knows this.. He didn't know Springfield was gonna release this...
I haven't bought a gun in years. I don't need it, I don't need it, I don't need it, I don't need it... I NEED IT!
I love this!!! Another amazing Springfield build
Technically it’s another HS Produkt build but, you know…
Springfield imported it from the same company they import the XD pistols from.
Springfield can't be stopped.
I like the look of it can't wait to try it out
You're welcome. Enjoy this beautiful rifle.
I Literally Just Drooled!!! I must Have this!!!🤤🤤🤤🤤
Ambi thank you so much 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Based on the internationally proven VHS-2 bullpup, which has been employed by the Croatian armed forces in demanding environments ranging from Iraq to Africa and beyond, the Springfield Armory Hellion offers American shooters a semi-automatic 5.56mm version of this highly capable firearm.
Not crazy about bullpup rifles but I dig this
Finally here...
I was jumping like a little boy in my gun shop I work at and begged my boss to order these.
He considered.
We get discounts.
Just show your Boss this Video and the reactions. I'm pretty sure he will order soon😉
Greetings from Croatia
I need this in my life
Everytime that you hear someone applauding, one thing is ceartain, they have just finished watching this video.
I subscribed to your channel long ago because one of those "win a gun" contests gave me points for visiting your channel. While I was there, I subscribed. I think this is the first time that UA-cam has recommended one of your new videos to me since the time of my subscribing. I find that amusing that they recommended one of your videos after all this time.
I'm glad that they made this recommendation. I've never fired a bullpup rifle, but I like the idea. I somewhat prefer the idea of the downward ejection of the Kel-Tec RBD, but I don't know which ejection direction would be better in real life. Because Kel-Tec can be a bit quirky, I like the idea of another bullpup being on the market. If I win the lottery, I'm going to come looking for one of these. At the rate things get to Wyoming, I probably won't see one for another nine or ten months.
Would like to see the VHS-D2 with the military 20 inch barrel for the bayonet lug and full velocity from the 5.56 round.
“They will know..Helghan belongs to the Helghast…”
Coming to a Helghan armory near you
Surprisingly good in ice it seems.
Would like to see it chambered in .308 Winchester and able to handle the 7.62×51 NATO extraction with the thicker casings despite the longer headspace.
Definitely getting this
long have i waited...
and now..
it is time
Beautiful
That's a pretty sweet AR 15
wait this video came out today? thank you gun Jesus
Handle one last week definitely like it ✌️
Man…. I wish I lived in America so I can buy these cool rifles. With the help of God, I’ll be able to leave them from California one day. Wish me luck boys.
I’m getting Famas vibes…I’m loving the look
Finally it’s here!
I’ve got to try this rifle
MSRP is around $1,900
Ouch.
"its about damn time!"
Will be buying this Christmas. It’s the closest to the halo BR
I got it ❤
Oh god YES. Take my money. After i buy your hi power too.
HALO comes to Springfield? I’m in.
Exactly what the world needs……..?
I have to get my hands on this one.
Couple of additions and this could be a very worthwhile varmint eliminator......
We have been waiting for this and now it happens. Cheer, brothers who have been waiting for this.
By the way, is "Hellion" a tribute to the Helghan from Killzone, who used guns looking similar to the VHS-2 or is it a coincidence?
Could be that or just sticking with the "Hell" name like their Hellcat 9mm
I wish you guys would of went with the name vhs vs hellion. Vhs is just fun to say again brings me back to a better time.
Everyone knows that DVD platform is the future.
Another tool for my collection
Nice... Looking forward to high round count reviews and torture tests.
Glad Springfield brought this out! But calling it modular because it has M-Lok and you can change the grip is a stretch.
Well, you can switch out the magazine well and the direction of ejection too. It's at least as modular as an AR if not more
@@Yance_000 except with the AR, despite not being able to change ejection sides (which is not really needed on an AR) without changing uppers, you can change literally every part on the gun.
I actually like the Hellion, but someone has to call out advertisers when they stretch the truth.
Well, knowing the military rifle, it's actually plenty modular. You can change magwell for different magazines, change rail and handguard. Can you choose from 50 different makes and models of handguards? No, but that's not the point.
You can change grips, magwell, buttstock, and I bet there's a relatively easy way to change the barrel. The trigger pack also comes out as a single module. There's no stretching of the truth going on. It also comes with built in flip up BUIS. Not sure what more you want...
Far more modularity is visible on combat version, with rail instead m-lock, switchable for granade launcher or stabilizing handle. But that would be illegal in soft version.
Just when i had my Tavor the way i like it you go and do this to me...love bullpups, if it has a nice crisp trigger out the box im in
You can always just put a trigger in that Tavor.
@@ap71chevss i have the geissele in it...hearing the Hellion has a less than impressive stock trigger so i might hold out until geissele does their thing
Stock triggers are rarely crisp out the box. Even more so for a bullpup. That’s a very unrealistic expectation.
@@fearlessleader8623 I just hate Springfield Armory is so late to the game with a bullpup. I do like the auto fold away charging handle though, as long as it's extremely accessible. This has bitten me before when shooting around hard cover... charging handle knocked out of battery or didn't fully go back into battery, not sure which.
@@ap71chevss It’s an import, made by the same company that makes the XD line of pistols. HS Produkt was busy with a government contract to import these rifles, the VHS-2, to Iraq and for the Croatian military.
Springfield Armory is leading
Need it.
Wow nice, I hope its reliable and not too over priced. It be nice for an everymans bull pup to some to market thats not 2 grand.
$1,999 MSRP
$2k isn’t a lot in retrospect. Just look at the price of a H&K G36.
Looks at the price of a SCAR
@@RadDadisRad I agree. It’s about par for the course really
Nonetheless, people will still cry and complain that it’s not ‘affordable’ like their $500 POS AR build.
Sweet!
Why yes, I do LARP as The Master Cheif. How could you tell?
Oh, I want one.
The only 2 things I won't like are the bolt release and it reminds me of a family other then that this rifle is sweet
Very cool!
Holy Height Over Bore Batman!
Wao amazing 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
It's actually a Croatian bullpup rifle adopted by the United States Department of Defense.
#Springfield
#Hellion
#VHS2
#DoD
Damn. Love it!
I want one! But I wonder why they don't have one with a 20 inch barrel to take advantage of 5.56 ballistics?
I remember an image of a side-by-side comparison between a 16” AR and a 20” AUG, and the AUG was still shorter lol.
I really want a 20” barrel for this thing eventually, but it’s only because I have a long barrel fetish.
They have them... 19.7" I believe... But only available in Croatia where they are actually made. Springfield isn't planning on importing the longer barrel version from what I've read.
I'm still waiting on my Waypoint in 6.5PRC...have been for 11 months now!
I'll call it the BR55Helion, for ODSTs.
I'm getting this! I had the pleasure of handling it, and it feels right! The military should switch to this work of art or at least SPECFORCES should!
FINALLY!!!!
Ohhh wow!!!
Freaking sweet
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i was wondering when we'd be able to buy a VHS-2
Yes please 🙏 😍
Pqp que coisa linda!!!
I’ll take it
Tempting to switch over from AR. Love the compact design. Are you making one in .308 anytime soon?
i believe it’s ultimately up to HS Produkt to design a 7.62 version. all springfield did was import it
Oh hell(ion) yeah
Is there any chance of getting the 19.7" barrel any time in the future?
You know they will or after market
I'm wondering the same thing. With as compact as the design makes it, there's no point not having a full-length barrel.
There is an option with 20" barrel.
Konačno
I like this.
