Springfield Armory, one of the oldest and most trusted names in U.S. firearms, is now manufacturing their own version of one of the most ubiquitous American firearms, the AR-15-type rifle.

The Springfield Armory Saint AR-15-type rifle is designed and purpose-built as a personal defense, home defense, and patrol rifle. It’s incredibly reliable right out of the box, and it’s affordably priced. Rob Pincus shows us more about the Saint.

SPECS
The Saint’s flat-top design is optics ready and includes a flip-up rear aperture sight and fixed A2-style front. The 16-inch Chrome Moly Vanadium barrel features a 1:8 twist rate to handle a wide range of bullet types. The operation of the M16 bolt carrier group is managed by a mid-length gas system paired with a heavy tungsten buffer, resulting in an exceptionally smooth action. A good shot starts with the trigger, so that’s why the Saint™ AR-15 features micro-polished and Nickel Boron treated components. While it offers the right pull weight for defensive use, you won’t feel it.

Unlike most defensive rifles in its price range, the Saint™ AR-15 includes top-notch furniture designed to improve both shooting experience and operator performance. An all new, exclusive Bravo Company PKMT KeyMod handguard packs heat shields and flexible attachment points into a slim and easy-to-handle form factor. The Bravo Company buttstock is rattle-free and complemented by a Bravo pistol grip designed to improve defensive performance.

PROTECTING WHAT YOU LOVE
Defending your legacy is what the Springfield Armory Saint is all about, and Rob, through his work with PDN and beyond, is all about that too. What do you want to prepare to defend, what are you willing to do rifle training for and to equip yourself to defend in the future?

Like other AR-15s, the Saint will take whatever upgrades you want to put on it. If you want to change the trigger or the charging handle, no problem. For reliability in a defensive rifle right out of the box, check out the Springfield Armory Saint.

  1. Ai precision make government millspeck colt fn saint upper lowers bolts yes same gun best u find or our mitlary wount not use so precision they do90prescent ar platforms so u fan boy s no facks before crying my doso better it's not saint best u find. dd is great saint better hafe

  3. The SAINT rocks. New models run M-Lok. Great out of the box…did some personalization with an upgraded rear sight (Magpul MBUS steel), a Romeo 5 red dot, a BCM ambi charging handle, a BCM foregrip, BCM extra power extractor spring (occasional FTE shooting steel) and a Blue Force Vickers 2-point sling. But with all BCM furniture, an upgraded trigger OEM and an M-16 carpenter steel BCG, I just can’t see finding a better gun for the price unless you build it yourself from scratch.

  4. I traded my custom ratworx MSAR stg-556 for a custom ar pistol and a Springfield saint as an even trade lol. I put one mag through both guns just to make sure they functioned properly. I instantly fell in love with the Saint and can’t wait to put more rnds through it. This one will probably join the collection and won’t be traded on armslist….Nice rifle!

  16. Thank you so much for explain the rifle! I’ve been thinking about grabbing this gun for sometime now. Quick question, what kind of rail should I put on the bottom to put a foregrip? (Also how do you put it on?). Again thank you! Very helpful!
