The Handy AR-15 Premium Pistol from Springfield Armory
The Springfield Armory SAINT EDGE is a handgun that punches well above its weight with a 7075 T6 billet aluminum lower, a Maxim Defense CQB adjustable 4 position arm brace, a BCM Mod 2 pistol grip, an extended charging handle and low-profile, Nato Semi-Auto Pistol, flip-up, dual aperture sights.
The SAINT EDGE AR-15 Pistol ships with premium features like the modular match, short-reset, Melonite-treated GI single-stage trigger that gives the Springfield Armory a crisp, clean trigger press with zero creeps. This is best premium pistol. The lightweight, 10.3-inch barrel has a 1:8 twist rifling allowing for the most flexible use of the best 5.56 NATO ammo. The svelte sleek, free-float M-LOK-compatible handguard covers a pinned, adjustable gas block on the lightweight, short barrel.

Harry –
A good and thorough review, but the subject matter…can’t support SA, Sootch…they haven’t done anything substantial to help heal the gaping stab wound in the back of the Illinois firearms community. And this? It’s really nothing more than a parts gun with an inflated price, a fancy milled lower that doesn’t really add anything to the function, with SA’s logo and an inflated price. I’ll give SA credit on one front, they’re good at marketing.
