Tabletop Review: Springfield Saint Edge 5.56 Pistol

I recently had the opportunity to get a close look at a Springfield Saint Edge AR pistol. This 5.56mm “pistol” is the top of the line, high-end AR offered by Springfield Armory. The Edge series of forearms offer billet lowers and premium components. Springfields goal is to provide the highest end forearms with the utmost reliability and accuracy. After handling the Saint Edge I have to say from the looks of it they reached their goal.

Below is a photo slideshow of the gun as I take a look at it. A full review is coming up as I take I to the range and send some Freedom Seeds downrange. Of note – Ammo.com was gracious enough to donate some ammunition for the upcoming review. Thank you Ammo.com!!

 

A few words from the Springfield Armory website:

The SAINT® Edge pistol combines the most popular features of the premium Edge rifle with the compact shootability of a pistol platform.

The newest self-defense legend, the SAINT Edge pistol in 5.56 gives maximum portability and ease of use in close quarters, where it matters most. The Maxim Defense™ CQB adjustable pistol brace reduces size, stabilizes recoil, and enhances accuracy, so the next time you need to deliver in a pinch, you’ll be in good hands.

The SAINT® Edge pistol features a 10.3″ lightweight 1:8 twist CMV barrel and delivers a comfortable, quick-handling and versatile platform. Brace yourself — fully collapsed the pistol measures in at just 24.6″.

  • Machined Billet Lower
  • 10.3″ Barrel(CMV)
  • Nickel Boron Coated Flat Trigger
  • Enhanced M16 BCG
  • Mid-Size Charging Handle
  • Ambi Safety
  • Maxim Defense CQB Brace

Saint Edge, review, Springfield Armory,

I can’t wait to get to the range and get some rounds through the Saint Edge pistol.
