This review of the Springfield Hellion (Croatian VHS-2) highlights its compact bullpup design, featuring a 16-inch cold hammer-forged barrel with a 1:7 twist rate and a 4-prong flash hider. The rifle incorporates a short-stroke gas piston with adjustable settings for normal and suppressed use, an M-LOK compatible handguard with QD points, and integrated, locking iron sights. The reviewer notes the ambidextrous G36-style charging handle and the adjustable, spring-loaded stock as unique features. However, criticisms include a less intuitive magazine release and bolt release mechanism, potential brass ejection issues common to bullpups, and a grip that caused blistering during extended shooting sessions. Despite these drawbacks, the Hellion is praised for its futuristic aesthetics, compact size, and enjoyable shooting experience.
