Joining the Springfield Armory SAINT Edge line of lightweight, quick-handling, high-performance rifles in 2020 is the all-new EVAC, an AR-15-style pistol designed for discreet, compact storage.

The 5.56 NATO-chambered pistol features a patent-pending, ratchet-barrel takedown system engineered for rapid deployment while aiding in the pistol’s compactness. Springfield Armory also partnered with Gear Head Works for its Tailhook MOD 1 side-folding arm brace and Law Tactical for its Gen-3-M adapter. The SAINT Edge EVAC pistol also ships with a storage bag.
