Overview

Springfield Armory designed the Saint line to bridge the gap between full-size rifle performance and pistol portability. The Springfield Saint 5.56mm AR15 pistol with 9.6 inch barrel, M-Lok rail and blade stock uses a carbine-length gas system tuned for consistent function with a wide range of ammunition. The 9.6-inch barrel is capped with a flash hider, while the M-Lok rail allows direct attachment of lights, lasers, or grips. The blade-style brace provides a stable shooting platform without classifying the firearm as a rifle under federal regulations, making it an ideal choice for Ohio residents seeking a legally compliant short-barreled platform.
