Built for the BBCOR Transition
A -5 USSSA bat is the last step before high school ball. The Spec C1 -5 lets players get used to swinging more mass while still enjoying the big 2 3/4" barrel of USSSA play. Hitters build the strength and bat control they need for a -3 BBCOR bat, and they get more power behind every swing right now.
Spec C1 Performance Technology
Balanced Swing Weight
Even at -5, the balanced swing weight keeps the bat fast and controllable. Hitters can generate real barrel whip, stay on plane, and drive the ball with authority without the barrel feeling sluggish.
Flex and Forgiveness
The Spec C1 pairs a stiff, responsive feel at contact, much like a one-piece bat, with the forgiveness of a two-piece design. Sweet-spot hits jump off the barrel, while the two-piece build absorbs harsh vibration on contact off the end or near the handle.
Clinch Spec Grip
Every bat comes pre-wrapped with the COMBAT MFG Clinch Spec Grip. It adds extra tack and just the right amount of cushion to keep hands relaxed and locked in through long tournaments and high-pressure at-bats. Pair it with Combat MFG batting gloves or our full selection of batting gloves.
Unmistakable Sound
Each barreled ball unleashes a loud thwack that turns every head within earshot. Hitters get hooked on squaring up balls just to hear it.

Combat Spec C1 Mint Militia -5 FAQ
Is the Spec C1 Mint Militia -5 legal for USSSA baseball?
Yes. The Spec C1 Mint Militia -5 displays the USSSA 1.15 BPF certification stamp (new NTS tested), so it is approved for USSSA play. It is not a BBCOR or USA Baseball bat, so always check your league's bat rules before game day.
Can I use the Spec C1 -5 in high school?
No. High school and college baseball require a BBCOR-certified bat with a -3 drop. The Spec C1 -5 is a USSSA bat designed to help players prepare for that move. Shop our BBCOR bats when you're ready to switch.
Who should use a -5 USSSA bat?
A -5 is built for strong, advanced travel ball players, usually in the years right before high school. It suits hitters who can handle a heavier bat without losing bat speed and want to get used to BBCOR-style weight.
Does Mint Militia perform differently than Sandstorm?
No. Mint Militia and Sandstorm share the same Spec C1 build, barrel, and swing weight. The only difference is the colorway.
Does the Spec C1 need a break-in period?
Like most composite bats, it is smart to break it in gradually with regulation leather baseballs, rotating the bat slightly after each hit. Avoid rubber batting cage balls and use in cold weather, which can damage composite barrels.
Does the Combat Spec C1 have a warranty?
Yes. The Spec C1 includes a manufacturer's warranty from COMBAT MFG.
Does this bat ship free?
Yes. The 2027 Combat Spec C1 Mint Militia -5 USSSA bat ships free.
Can I return the Spec C1 if it isn't the right fit?
Smash It Sports accepts returns on eligible items within 30 days of purchase. Visit our Returns page to start a return.
