Anyone have advice on a backup upper(s) that would fit the .308 St. Victor lower.
Thanks

AR-10 & LR/SR patterned rifles are typically proprietary to what receivers can be used together so you maybe hard pressed to find a compatible upper receiver that is not made by Springfield.

Yes sir. Aware of that and wanted to see if anyone has an upper that would be compatible. Unfortunately, SA does not sell the upper and lowers separate.

I'd be first in line to buy a Springfield .308 upper with a 20" barrel.

This guy says his Aero upper will fit on it, but the SA upper won't fit on the Aero lower.

SA Saint Victor .308? > AR Variants > AR15.COM

Finally handled one of these at a local store. Seemed solid, no frills and quality built. I did not shoot it.Anyone have any experience with the Saint .308? Good, bad or indifferent?Never owned an AR1

Just wanted to confirm too, with pictures, the Springfield Saint Victor does technically fit with Aero uppers. The upper is a bit wider, and taller, than the Springfield upper so there is some overhang near the top -- you can see it a bit in the photo if you look under where the charging handle is.

This one in particular is the Aero "Enhanced" M5E1 but I think the regular M5 uppers would fit too.

Haven't got a chance to fire it yet though.
