Springfield Armory expands its Saint platform, shrinking the rifle series down to an AR handgun platform dubbed the Saint Edge Pistol.
The Saint Edge Pistol brings a 5.56 chambered design to consumers looking for a lightweight build. With a billet-machined lower receiver, the Saint Edge Pistol offers a full-length free float M-LOK compatible handguard paired with a 10.3-inch, 1:8 twist CMV barrel.
A Maxim Defense CQB adjustable pistol brace brings the Saint Edge Pistol’s measurements down to 24.6-inches with the brace collapsed. Weighing a little over 5-pounds, the Saint Edge Pistol boasts a multi/mode adjustable gas blocks to grant shooters the ability to tune the carbine for specific ammunition or suppressors.
