SL SPECIES HELLCAT PRO STX TAC BK RH

Description

The Safariland Species is an inside-the-waistband holster built for concealed carry of the Springfield Hellcat Pro. It is oriented toward shooters who want a purpose-fitted, body-side carry option rather than a general-purpose or adjustable-fit design — the Species is cut specifically for this pistol, which means the fit is close and the draw is consistent.

The holster is constructed with SafariLaminate, Safariland’s layered thermoplastic material that holds its shape under heat and daily wear without softening around the trigger guard over time. That rigidity matters for two reasons: it keeps the opening stable so you can re-holster with one hand, and it maintains a predictable draw stroke regardless of how long the holster has been in service. The interior finish is STX Tactical, a suede-textured outer material that sits comfortably against the body and resists wear against clothing.

Retention on the Species is passive — the holster holds the pistol through friction fit rather than an active locking mechanism. That makes for a clean, uninterrupted draw with no lever or button to disengage, which suits concealed carry priorities where speed and simplicity matter more than the retention levels designed for open-carry or duty use. The belt clip mount keeps the holster anchored to the waistband without requiring a belt loop to be threaded, so it can be attached or removed without undressing. This is a right-hand draw configuration.

If you are carrying a Hellcat Pro and want a fitted IWB option with durable construction and a straightforward draw, the Species covers that ground without unnecessary complexity.
