This partially stripped Apex slide for the Hellcat and Hellcat Pro is machined from heat-treated stainless steel with a black PVD finish (FDE variants receive Cerakote over PVD). It solves the problem of needing a dedicated optic-ready slide without modifying your factory slide, and it prevents optic screw interference with the extractor channel—a known issue with some direct-mount setups. You will need to transfer or supply all slide internals, barrel, and recoil assembly.

FAQ
Will this slide fit my factory Hellcat Pro barrel?
Yes. It accepts all factory Hellcat and Hellcat Pro barrels, as well as Apex aftermarket barrels.
Can I use my existing optic with this slide?
If your optic uses the Holosun K footprint (407K, 507K, EPS, EPS Carry) or Shield Arms RMSC pattern, yes. Use the included screws for Holosun optics; use the screws from your RMSC optic for that pattern.
Does this slide include any internal parts?
No. This is a partially stripped slide. You must supply or transfer the striker assembly, striker block & spring, extractor & extractor plunger assembly, slide back plate, barrel, and recoil assembly.
