Saint Pistol

Gorba · Sep 26, 2018

I'm right on the edge of taking the plunge into the purchase of a Springfield Armory Saint pistol. Does anyone have anything horrible to say about that idea? I know they're LOUD with big flash but that's kinda' "moving." lol

Kinda moving? Whatsa matter young man, Metamucil stopped working? :lol2:

j/k of course. Seriously, just do it! And maybe the Wells Fargo Wagon will be a-comin' down the street soon with your new toy. :thumbsup:

Having messed with both 5.56 and 300BO "pistols" with <10" barrels, 300 is a ton easier to live with, far less blast/flash, better ballistics in a short barrel and tends to run better. Can always swap barrels if you get one, and want to try the other.

Do it. I’m stuck in the 30 day wait purgatory or I would have one already. Looks like a fun gun to shoot and SBRing it (if you go that route) is going to be a lot simpler than some pistols.

They have been hit or miss, the last one that I worked over was one of the nicest this far, so I'm thinking they worked the production issues out.

I hope that one was mine!

Thanks for your comment Clandestine. If I do spring for one, it's going to turn up at the SOTAR on 10 November.

Happy to hear it. Coincidentally, I have this freaky habit of giving names to inanimate objects. I had already decided to name the Saint 'Simon Templar.'

The 300 BO Saint is not on the Handgun Rooster yet. Does anyone know if it is on the review list for October 2018?

You are going to draw your own conclusions anyway.

true story, but I usually tend to take what you say with a sense of "this guy knows what he is talking about" when researching things

I was checking one of these out today, the Saint-Victor pistol in 5.56 Does anyone know if the handgaurd would need to be swapped out if I want to use my suppressor (SilencerCo 5.56k)?

Is the blast diverter a hassel to remove?
