Overview

The Springfield Saint 5.56mm AR15 pistol with 9.6 inch barrel, M-LOK rail and blade stock is part of Springfield’s Saint line, which has earned a reputation for reliable, out-of-the-box performance. This model features a 9.6-inch chrome-moly vanadium barrel with a 1:8 twist rate, optimized to stabilize a wide range of 5.56mm and .223 Remington loads. The M-LOK free-float handguard keeps weight down while providing plenty of real estate for lights, lasers, or grips. And the SB Tactical SBA3 blade-style stabilizing brace gives you a solid cheek weld without crossing into NFA territory, keeping the overall length short and maneuverable.

Features & Specs

This pistol is built around a forged 7075 T6 aluminum receiver set with a hard-coat anodized finish. The single-stage trigger breaks cleanly at around 5.5 to 6 pounds, and the overall fit and finish is consistent with what you expect from a major manufacturer like Springfield Armory. Here is a closer look at the key features:

• Caliber: 5.56mm NATO (also accepts .223 Remington); barrel length: 9.6 inches with a 1:8 twist and M4 feed ramp extensions for reliable feeding with various bullet weights.
• M-LOK free-float handguard constructed from lightweight aluminum, allowing you to attach accessories without adding bulky quad rails. The handguard also includes a full-length top Picatinny rail for optics or back-up iron sights.
• SB Tactical SBA3 stabilizing brace with a blade-style design and adjustable length of pull; carbine-length gas system with a low-profile gas block keeps the profile clean and the cycling consistent.

Additional specifications include a Mil-Spec buffer tube, a standard carbine buffer and spring, and a birdcage-style flash hider. The pistol ships with one 30-round Magpul PMAG, and the overall weight is approximately 5.5 pounds unloaded. The compact 9.6-inch barrel keeps velocities respectable while maintaining a short overall length that is ideal for vehicle storage or close-quarters use.

Who It’s For

The Springfield Saint 5.56mm AR15 pistol with 9.6 inch barrel, M-LOK rail and blade stock is a solid choice for shooters who want a compact platform that still packs the terminal performance of 5.56mm. If you are a homeowner looking for something more effective than a handgun for defensive use, this pistol offers a longer sight radius and better recoil management than most traditional pistols. It also appeals to truck or bug-out bag builders who need a firearm that stows easily but still delivers rifle-like accuracy out to 150 to 200 yards. And if you are a recreational shooter who enjoys building out a compact AR-style platform, the M-LOK handguard and blade brace give you room to customize without running afoul of federal regulations regarding short-barreled rifles.
