Springfield Armory Hellion 556 5.56 NATO 16" 30-Round FDE Bullpup Rifle

The Springfield Armory Hellion 556 5.56 NATO 16" 30-Round FDE Bullpup Rifle is designed for tactical operators, law enforcement trainers, and civilian shooters who require a compact yet capable firearm. Chambered in 5.56 NATO, this rifle offers rifle-length ballistics in a compact 39-inch overall length, making it ideal for vehicle operations and confined-space training.

The rifle features a 16-inch barrel that maintains velocity and accuracy, while its flat dark earth finish provides a professional appearance and corrosion resistance. The bullpup design positions the magazine well and action toward the rear, allowing for a shorter overall length without sacrificing performance. The left-side charging handle enhances usability but may not fully accommodate all left-handed shooters.

With a weight of 11.88 pounds unloaded, the Hellion balances controllability and durability, making it suitable for various shooting scenarios. Its 30-round magazine capacity ensures compatibility with standard military and commercial ammunition, while the bullpup geometry helps reduce felt recoil and muzzle rise during rapid fire. This rifle is an excellent choice for those transitioning from AR-platform rifles, offering a familiar yet innovative layout.
