So, just like a 1957 Chevy Bel Air, you will never see a shortage of accessories.
So, how about we consider the Springfield Armory SAINT as a foundation for a customization build?
The main takeaways here for me are Made In the U.S.A. and innovation.
Springfield Armory builds exceptional rifles, and Armaspec provides parts to fully customize them. In this article, the author completely accessorizes his SAINT.
I contacted Armaspec and picked out the parts I wanted to test out for this rifle.

Why These Parts?
Now that we know the parts, we should probably discuss the why behind them.
Among the parts selected by the author were the charging handle, buttstock, muzzle brake and lower parts kit.
These parts are performance-driven choices.
And, of course, who doesnt love the mitigation in the recoil of a good muzzle brake?
I noticed the selector was extremely smooth on the rotation yet very positive when it locked into place.
The Rifter Linear Muzzle Brake helps to reduce felt recoil. It is machined stainless steel and has a black nitride finish.
The new takedown and pivot pins add a custom look and give a bit of texture to grab onto.
The all-aluminum design of the stock also inspired confidence in the recoil impulse.
And that recoil impulse was definitely changed with the new Stealth Recoil Spring.
The Armaspec X-PDW stock uses an all-aluminum design, which makes it strong and compact.
When doing drills, all of the controls operated smoothly and were positive in activation.
My favorite part had to be the Stealth Recoil Spring.
Between the SRS and theSpringfield Accu-Tite system, the SAINT will feel as solid as a rifle can.
The author found the Victory charging handle made running the bolt very easy, including off-handed operations.
