Picked one up yesterday, right at $1,000.

Everything felt great, trigger from factory is a little heavy

So far, 25 rounds

I’d say it’s solid, good upper mid tier rifle that won’t break the bank

Thanks

I just heated it up after 0, 10 rounds in 10 seconds at 103 yards

I’d call it 2”, no pic to prove it

I think it’s gonna be solid

The Saint seems like a good middle ground between low-end and high-end ARs from what I can tell. If I needed another AR id be looking at one.

That is a good shooter. Second group is less than an inch.

Really hard to complain about those groups. How you like the Trijicon? I have a few of the Accupowers 3-9 Mil Squares. Great scopes for the money 1

Years ago, I found one at Academy a few weeks after they released. $800 at the time. One of my favorite rifles for sure.

If someone is looking for one I was in Rifle Gear today and they are running a sale on the Saint Mlok LoPro..damn good deal in today's market I think: If I was looking for another AR, it would definitely be a good un.

Dang it Earl, you may have just cost me $1K. Rifle Gear and Scheels being just a couple miles from my house is very dangerous. I jumped on the Rifle Gear premium range membership during their presale. Heck of a deal.

To be fair, i was adding in sales tax to that price. I also missed out on the 10% off ammo sale during the holiday.
