NEW SAINT Victor Pistol With Magpul BTR Pistol Brace from Springfield
Luke Cuenco 10.05.21
The concept of the truck gun was something I regularly dismissed out of hand until I found myself on a ranch in Texas doing some impromptu coyote dispatching. Since then I have looked much more seriously into the topic and the different types of platforms that might be available to me should I ever need one on that kind of property. One new option that has just made itself available that I think would fit the bill is the new Springfield Armory SAINT Victor pistol. While this short stack 7.5″ barreled AR might not have the legs to take full advantage of the 5.56 cartridge for man-shaped targets, it sure as heck looks like it can be handy with its included BTR pistol brace from Magpul.

If you’re looking for a turn-key solution for a short-barreled AR-pistol that can easily house a dedicated optic or even iron sights right out of the box then the new SAINT Victor offers you great maneuverability in a portable package that could turn out to be useful on the range or even in a home defense situation. The Springfield SAINT Victor Pistol is available now through Springfield dealers and is sold for an MSRP of $1,249. Being a purpose-built AR-pistol platform it seems like a great option for an out-of-the-box truck or bedside gun.
