Springfield Armory entered the popular modern sporting rifle market in 2016 when it introduced its Saint line of AR-15-style rifles, and the company quickly added pistol versions of the Saint a year later. The Victor sub-model, released in 2019, added upgraded premium features to the Saint lineup. This year, Springfield announced a pistol version of the Saint Victor and has recently released two additional new-for-2025 Saint Victor pistol models.
Upgraded features on all Saint Victor models include an aluminum alloy, free-floating handguard with M-Lok slots for attaching accessories and a nickel boron-coated trigger. All Saint Victor pistols are supplied with an SB Tactical SBA3 adjustable stabilizing brace that mounts on a standard receiver extension, a B5 Systems polymer trigger guard, B5 Type 23 P-Grip and a 45-degree, short-throw ambidextrous safety lever.
The new Saint Victor 9 mm Luger pistol is an 8.5”-barreled version of the Victor 9 mm pistol released earlier this year. Both are based on the Victor 9 mm carbine, which uses a direct blowback action, feeds from Colt-pattern 9 mm AR-15 magazines and uses a Springfield Muzzle Drum muzzle device. With its longer barrel, the pistol is 23” overall (with the brace collapsed) and weighs 6 lbs., 2 ozs. It has the same MSRP as the 5.5” barrel version at $1,099.
The new Saint Victor 5.56 NATO pistol uses a rotating bolt that is HPT/MPI tested and a carbine-length direct impingement gas operating system. Its barrel is 11.5” and capped with an A2-style muzzlebrake. In addition to its full-length Picatinny rail on the upper receiver and handguard, it comes with flip-up iron sights. With an overall length of 27.5” (with brace collapsed) and a weight of 5.9 lbs., 9 ozs., it has an MSRP of $1,150.
