Springfield Armory didn’t jump into the AR market nearly as soon as a lot of companies did, but when they did, they offered solid, well-thought-out models at affordable prices. The SAINT Victor Pistol looks to be following that pattern. It’s chambered in 5.56mm and has an 11.5-inch CMV barrel. It uses a carbine-length gas system and is fitted with an A2 birdcage flash suppressor. The upper receiver is forged from 7075 T6 Aluminum. It has a black Type III Hardcoat anodized finish, a forward assist, and is cut with M4 feed ramps.

The SAINT pistol uses a free-float handguard with a full-length Picatinny rail on top. It has M-LOK slots on the sides and bottom for attaching your preferred accessories. An M-LOK handstop is included on the handguard, and a QD mount is located on the receiver end plate.

The lower is also forged from 7075 T6 Aluminum with a black Type III Hardcoat anodized finish. It incorporates the Accu-Tite Tension System as well. The SAINT Victor Pistol has a nickel boron-coated flat trigger and is fitted with a B5 Systems polymer trigger guard. A 45-degree short-throw ambidextrous safety comes standard.

The SAINT comes with a B5 Systems Type 23 P-Grip and an SB Tactical SBA3 brace on the three-position receiver extension. Additional features are a set of flip-up sights and one 30-round Magpul PMAG Gen M3 magazine. MSRP on the SAINT Victor Pistol is $1,150.
