I can’t speak to the longevity yet, but it definitely feels sturdy and durable. The stock is also made by Bravo Company (BCMGUNFIGHTER Mod 0) and is marketed as the strongest lightweight polymer stock available for mil-spec receivers. Springfield did a great job ensuring these flip-up sights were low-profile and easy to adjust. The rear flip-up sight has distinct white increment markings so it’s easy to see while you’re adjusting them. You can adjust them for windage and elevation like most other flip-up sights and they are low-profile when folded down.Įven though I’m used to the Magpul flip-ups, the Springfield ones were very easy to get used to and adjust. The Saint isn’t one of those firearms luckily, and happens to be outfitted with Springfield’s spring-loaded flip-up sights. I hate when rifles don’t come with back-up sights. I found the Bravo Company PMCR handguard to be extremely comfortable while shooting. One of my favorite aspects of the handguard is the small hand-stop at the end to stop you from sliding your hand too far forward. It’s relatively lightweight, and has aggressive texturing and multiple M-Lok mounting slots. The handguard is the BCMGUNFIGHTER PMCR (Polymer M-Lok Compatible Rail) from Bravo Company. While I wish it was longer, it was a great choice overall made by Springfield. You won’t find the super basic furniture on the Saint, like you would with some others at this price point. I’ll get into each one of those in more detail later, but it shows that there was a ton of thought put into the rifle, both from a performance and aesthetics perspective. For example, you’ll find Bravo Company Manufacturing furniture, where many ARs at this price point will have the basic A2 pistol grip and the basic six-point adjustable stock. As I mentioned, Springfield did a fantastic job ensuring all of the basic features were covered and then took some a step further.
