Nice !
I am thinking about a Victor, myself.

They are all nice, but I am partial to my ST916556BFFH. It does appear they may not be producing them anymore, as they are not listed anywhere. A very nice, range ready out of the box, rifle!!

Close to $400 bucks for the weapon light, ouch…..

I have put off buying an AR for well, ever. I never wanted or thought I needed one. I don't need one, but now I am wanting. I have been partial to the Saint for a long time. May be time to "pull the trigger" so to speak...

Oh yes you need one. Every home (shooter) needs (at least) one!

But what's with the guys preoccupation with closing the dust cover??

That was distracting to me, along with the finger check inside the chamber.

HaaHaa, yeah, and dig the finger check in the magazine well!
Is the mag extracted??

Guess I should not snicker at taking safety to the next level........

Yes, I could go to the spec charts and find the answer, but in the interest of time (and laziness) would one of the forum experts that carry this stuff in their head inform me of the difference between a SAINT, a SAINT VICTOR, and the M-LOK?? My suspicion is "not much". ?

Sorry no one answered your question before. The Saint is the base model and M-Lok is the handguard attachment slots design. In addition, the base model has the fixed A2 front sight/gas block. The Victor and Edge lines have free floating barrels and various upgrades over the base model.
