The Springfield Armory Hellion is a bullpup-configured semi-automatic rifle engineered for shooters who need a compact, transportable 5.56 platform without sacrificing barrel length. Its design is suited to range use, training, and compact-tactical applications where an abbreviated overall length is beneficial.
Built around a polymer chassis with a Flat Dark Earth finish, the Hellion places the action behind the trigger to reduce overall length while retaining a 16″ chrome moly vanadium Melonite-treated barrel with a 1:7 twist rate. The rifle includes ambidextrous controls, a reversible case ejection system, an adjustable stock with cheek riser, BCMGUNFIGHTER Mod 3 grip compatibility, a full-length Picatinny top rail, and a polymer M-LOK handguard for accessory mounting.
