Springfield Armory has just announced a new line of upgraded and enhanced SAINT Victor AR rifles and pistols.

Constantly looking to improve its product line, Springfield Armory has just announced that its popular SAINT Victor line of AR rifles and pistols is receiving a redesign. Boasting improvements and enhancements throughout, the new guns will be available in both 5.56x45mm and 7.62x51mm in a variety of barrel lengths in rifle and pistol formats.

Each of the new SAINT Victor guns boasts a forged 7075-T6 Type III hardcoat anodized aluminum receiver that features the Accu-Tite tension system, designed to enhance accuracy by creating a more snug fit between the receivers. The receivers also have low-profile, minimalist markings, a small but much appreciated choice compared to the billboards that adorn the sides of some other lowers.

As for their barrels, regardless of caliber or length, all redesigned SAINT Victors feature a 4150 CMV barrel with a continuous tapered profile that’s designed to be rigid and disperse heat well. They also feature taper-pinned/low-profile gas blocks, crowned muzzles and a rugged nitride finish. The enhanced bolt carrier group is M16-pattern, crafted from 9310 carpenter steel, HP/MPI tested and also has a nitride finish. The BCGs also feature hard-chromed firing pins and properly staked gas keys to ensure reliability.

Other notable features of the redesigned SAINT Victor guns include four-prong flash hiders, Radian Raptor-LT ambidextrous charging handles, free-floated M-LOK aluminum handguards with QD sling cups, B5 Systems Enhanced SOPMOD stocks, Type 23 P-Grip pistol grips and polymer trigger guards, 45-degree ambidextrous safety levers, low-profile aluminum flip-up sights and nickel boron-coated triggers (pistol models come with an SB Tactical SBA3 brace instead of a stock).

Steve Kramer, Vice President of Marketing for Springfield Armory, said this about the redesigned ARs:

Since its launch in 2019, the SAINT Victor line has proven itself as a market leader by providing premium features and impressive performance … With these enhancements and updates, the new SAINT Victors — in 5.56mm or 7.62mm — stand ready to deliver professional-grade capabilities.
