Springfield Armory Hellion | 5.56 NATO | 18″ | 10+1

The Springfield Armory Hellion is a semi-automatic bullpup rifle chambered for .223 Rem/5.56 NATO with an 18″ threaded barrel and a compact overall length. It features a bullpup layout for shorter overall length without sacrificing barrel length, an ambidextrous charging handle, and low-profile flip-up sights. For an optic that pairs well with this platform and stays under $1,000, consider the Vortex Strike Eagle 1-6×24 for fast target acquisition and versatile engagement ranges.
