I bought a palmetto AR 10. Chrome barrel. It's got some weight, but it's never had a single malfunction and consistently hits. Waaaaaaaay more affordable. I know it's not the same, but work with what you can get.

I’m not oblivious to the fact that PSA does have some flaws from the manufacturer, but my PSA 10.5 5.56 with a few upgrades is one of my most reliable AR’s I own. I’ve probably only shot a little over 1500 Rounds, but it has never given me a single issue. and I have a few high end AR’s that have.

There are YT channels that offer updates on the legal aspects of the 2A movement. Others delve into firearm reviews and industry news. This channel obviously does both, but adds one more very important factor to the table: Coolness. A focus on the asthenic component of firearm ownership helps cultivate a greater appreciation for them over a wider audience. So keep telling us how elegant a particular firearm is to hold, shoot, or just admire. That analysis is your most unique contribution to our community.

Good looking rifle.
I actually love the fact that there are no rail lugs on top starting about an inch past the the beginning of the barrel. It's not like I am ever going to mount anything there anyways-- anything out that far is going to be mounted on the side or underneath. I feel like it makes the rifle much more comfortable to handle without always catching my rest hand/glove on those lugs as I am toting it around and/or repositioning it.
Swapped in a larue trigger. Acss x3 micro. Flawless. Light. Happy beyond words.

My dad bought the sfar, and I have the saint. The sfar is definitely lighter, and the styling is more aggressive. Which is cool looking but has some sharp points on rail that can scratch your hand. Also, rail makes slight ting noise when taped on with finger. It's probably because it's more thin compared to the saint. All the finishes on the saint feel better quality, sturdy, and sleek. It's not too flashy in design. Both are awesome rifles. Luckily, my dad bought the other option, so I never felt like I made the wrong choice because we got both, haha.

Thanks for another great review. I've built a few of these around the Faxon Gunner 18" barrel. They are the ultimate out-to-400-yard hog gun. I would have to be really impressed in person with this gun to opt for it over the Ruger SFAR which is a pound lighter and $330 cheaper and is a truly awesome rifle. No way you can build a lightweight, high quality 308 for the price of the Ruger.
Right on,,one of the things that I noticed was how much you were enjoying the moment, at the same time thank you for your honest opinion and not just trying to push a sell,,
You're finally doing a review on a firearm I actually own! And i bought it for almost every reason you stated. I started out with the 5.56 version of this rifle, and I loved it so much that when I discovered that Springfield made a 308 version, I had to have it, and I wasn't disappointed! The only thing that was different between the two rifles is that the 5.56 version came with an ambi 45° safety selector and the 308 did not, which is the only thing I've changed on mine. All i really need now is an LPVO and a sling.

I’ll often just watch the first half of the video, just because there’s so much content I watch, but I watch this whole video. Such a nice rifle.
Appreciate your videos. Thanks for all the content you provide.
I really like mine. It's a very dependable, accurate, and just plane fun rifle to own and shoot! If your looking to get one I recommend this one for a good quality SHTF weapon. The front sight on yours is different than mine. I have the proprietary Springfield front and rear iron spring loaded sights and they stay flat. If you really want to see that trigger in action run a Magpul 50 round drum through it. Your right this trigger just looks so wicked in its nickel boron finish. The finish on the entire rifle is Melonite to include the BCG. It does have Bravo Company furniture and a bottom acces grip. The real attention grabber of this weapon is it is chambered in .308. The expansive available ability .308 rounds makes the AR 10 a really nice choice vs the AR 15 or AR 12. The flat rail is very nice to grab on to. I really don't miss the top rail there are just so many M-Loc points on the handguard to meet really any need. I do keep a bipod on mine better to have than to need. I like the Springfield proprietary compensator it really keeps this weapon shooting straight even through mag dumps. The gas block is pinned and adjustable with the provided gas block adjuster tool read up on that. It's always better to be Victor.
I got one and will be shooting it for the first time this weekend. Thanks for the review, I now know what to expect.
Great review as always. Thanks.
I'm a fan of 308 used a 7.62 FN FAL in my Service and I love the way you know that they knew you were shooting at them Definitely
308 is a nice mid size round. Fun to shoot but still semi affordable compared to 6.5 creedmoor. I built mine then decided to suppress it and dummy me forgot to put an adjustable gass block on it. Rookie move i know but we is fixing it now.

Funny enough I haven't had to adjust the gas on any gun I throw my can on, it is a junky boi though. It's like 1.7" diameter and 7 inches long solvent trap kit that I got the stamp for. I works on AR rifles, AR pistols, and even my AK with no adjustments needed. The AR pistol though was adjusted and rocksetted right after I got it, it was over-gassed as hell from PSA and kicked way more than any .223 should.

@@jamomeara1894 well essentially, and I'm kind of dumbing this down here/might be slightly off, but in some guns with a silencer you don't get enough gas coming back into the gun to cycle the action fully. Like on my AK yes it functions with the can, but the bolt moves back slower than it does without the can. If it got enough fowling inside it might not cycle, I wouldn't run the can on the AK if it were going to be adverse conditions. On my AR pistol it had too much gas coming back from the factory, increasing recoil and could shorten the life of some parts in the gun. So you throw an adjustable block on there, set it somewhere in the middle where it ejects brass at 2-3 o'clock, set it, and in my case used rocksett on the set screw to keep it from ever backing off.

Springfield Armory make great rifles in the mid range market. Those who buy them love them and tell people about them. There is one flaw to Springfield armory guns and that is their service department for warranties. It is like a ghost town non-existent. When I bought my Saint Victor B5 and had a couple small issues I tried calling them six times left voicemails and six emails and have never received anything from the factory back so I fixed my gun myself on my dime. So be careful what manufacture you buy their product you get what you pay for and sometimes you don’t get what you pay for.!!!

I picked up one of these in 308 not too long ago despite wanting not an ar10 but it looks nice and the price is hard to argue with. I was looking at the sfar as well at that point. I really just want to change the stock and grip now that the charging handle is swapped out. It feels so good out of the box. I got the sig lpvo on mine. I like a slightly stiffer trigger than the quick 3lb ones and at first didn't like it but it's grown on me. It's really nice and definitely doesn't have that slop of milspec.
Thank you so much for reviewing the exact gun I just bought Jan 4. You voiced the very reasons I chose it. It's not overly optimized for any specialty, but excellent at everything, at a no frills price. I love it, of course. Given time, I might like it more than my Army M14. Maybe. I'm still researching optics & suppressor. I eventually want a matching 556. Thanks again Colion. What kind of name is Colion anyway? And Noir? That can't be a coincidence.
Awesome review. I want one.

great content great review: I am one of those people that like a split top rail. like 75% or more of us do not need that extra full length spine, because we do not run any type of NV. plus if you have the right split top rail, such as the one I use, it will accept mlok on top. the only thing that I think sucks about split top rails, is they have been slimmed down to a 1.3" I.D. from a 1.5" I.D. in which I personally would prefer a 1.5" I.D. I have larger hands, plus you do not feel the heat from the barrel as fast..
I put together a CMMG .308 years ago, upper lower and floating barrel. It was just a bit more $ than the base Saint Victor on the web site, but not by much. I fitted it with an old Tasco high powered scope I got from my Dad, a very nice muzzle brake and various furniture. I was a bit hesitant in assembling an AR-10 on my own, but it was a great project and a great learning experience. There is so much info and guides out there that it was a lot easier than I initially thought. Not to take anything away from this Springfield, but I do prefer assembling my own AR weapons. Keep you powder dry.
Sweet rifle, thank you for the video.
I was looking at the Saint Victor when I bought my first ar10, I ended up going with the db10 and was kinda glad I did. For the price difference I ended up with a sub moa rifle with bland furniture... I changed all that and ended up with a decent rifle set up exactly how I wanted. Not saying the Victor is bad, but you're paying extra for that cool logo on the lower reciever IMO.

I’ve got (2) Saints in .556 and they are flawless and passes quality on some of the more “ costly” competitors.
Great job on the video Colion! Looks like a slick rifle the way you have it set up! Looks like it shoots soft for a 7.62 as well! I might have to aquire one! NICE!!! 👍👍👍
I love thumpers. At least that's how I think about my large caliber rifles. I've got an older .308 "battle rifle" that's all kinds of fun for me, an AR-10 styled rifle would be a nice acquisition. This one is a really pretty one, I'll have to consider it.
Loving this rifle! And I agree about the picatinny on top looks and feel wise and it seems more practical
Love the videos. Don't change be you always.
I have the 556 and it's great. Highly recommend. Even suppressed it's great.
I've always been a fan of the .308. I think I might have to take a closer look at this one.

Hello, I am new to firearms, would it be possible to attach a bayonet to this rifle?
Nice content. Looks similar to my HK762A1, minus the pic rail going throughout. Seems agile enough.. and in the top 5 of readily avail. ammo so it classes to do shtf endgame. Glad springfield is stepping up again. I want that trigger, or a similiar geissele on my HK. Thanks!

Love my .308 saint trigger! Love the gun in general. 😊
New sub my guy! Thanks for posting and thanks for the review. I walked into the store the other day with cash in hand for a Springfield socom scout m1a......I am a Springfield guy all day and so...I watched your video in the store and I am switched to the Saint victor now! I will be rolling back to the gun shop here soon to pick her up!
I agree with everything said in this video. It is an awesome platform. The recoil on this system is manageable. I love mine. Replaced the iron's.
Love the .308. Nice rifle.
I need to see this compared to the Ruger SFAR

@@grandhustln I got an SFAR and am happy with it so far. I put a 3-15x scope on it after hearing how accurate the rifle can be.

@@groberts1980 appreciate the feedback, I finally pulled the trigger & ordered one this weekend from gunbroker these things are nearly sold out everywhere
Thank you for your videos.
This came at just the right time, been looking to finally “pull the trigger” and get myself a proper rifle
I'd be curious whether you like the Victor or the SFAR better. For the money I'd go with the SFAR.
Saint Victor is just a sexy beast… I looked at one in 5.56 a while back but it was way over msrp. .308 I can get with but in that 16 inch barrel just seems a little small… 18 or 20 inch would do it justice.

Only reason I can think of is I live in deep forest bear country.... but it would still be a hard sell going under 20" on a .308 for me... the whole point would be hunting (right now looking at an Aero Precision 10, with .308 upper @ 20", and a 6.5 creed upper @ 22" [or maybe even 24]).
Great job. I'm sold!
Ok, Colion… I’ve been wanting a .308 platform. Think this is it!!! Fell in love with ur Leviathan Ragnarok review when I was in the market for a SBR; I got it. Getting the same vibe with this video I got with that Ragnarok review you did a few years back. This just went on my list!!!
Great review! I almost bought this rifle until the sales associate at Palmetto State Armory pointed out to me (and in the rifle's manual) that in order to adjust the gas system the user must "physically" remove the gas plug screw(one of three color coded screws), with the potential of losing a screw(or stripping one) made my decision to buy the Palmetto State Armory PSA 10 (Gen 3) with an adjustable gas block that much easier...
This guy would be fun to go to the range with!
Very nice , thanks Mr Colin
