Springfield Armory SAINT 5.56 - Unboxing & Initial Impressions

About this video

Colion reviews Springfield Armory’s first-ever AR-15, the Saint, which he describes as an affordable entry into the market with an MSRP around $899. He breaks down the rifle’s features, including its BCM furniture, chrome moly barrel, nickel boron trigger, and overall fit and finish. Colion argues the Saint offers quality components at a competitive price point, positioning it as a complete rifle buyers won’t feel compelled to immediately modify.

Key takeaways

  • Colion explains that the Saint represents Springfield’s attempt to offer an affordable AR-15 that looks and feels complete out of the box, unlike many budget rifles that require upgrades
  • According to Colion, the rifle features quality components including Bravo Company furniture, flip-up sights, and a proprietary nickel boron trigger he finds satisfactory
  • Colion notes the Saint uses a traditional direct impingement mid-length gas system and has good balance with weight centered over the magazine well
