Why is my new SAINT® Edge different from the one on the official website?

[Annihilator]

If you were a serious competitor, you wouldn’t be buying an off the shelf rifle…you’d be building.

Additionally, if you bought the rifle online, that means you had the opportunity to inspect the rifle before taking delivery, and should have seen that the brake wasn’t correct. If you didn’t…that’s kinda on you.

Springfield has been known to play fast & loose with the furniture/accoutrements that have been coming with the Saints; I seem to recall a few instances where they were subbing forends from different, lesser models.

Basically took the words right from my mouth there Hans!

You fail to answer my question—

How much effect does the “lesser” comp have on your splits, given equal accuracy?

You say you’re a “competitor”…I’m just trying to get a feeling of how serious you are.

No, you didnt inspect the rifle before you left the Gun store
100% on you

Hey, I resemble that remark

I think your dissappointment may be out of proportion to your loss. It could be that the muzzle brake on your rifle works perfectly well.

Who did you buy it from?

I got my new gun SAINT Edge today


Springfield Armory Saint Edge STE916556B


After I got it home, I found that the Muzzle Brake of this gun was different from the official website. I checked online and found that my Muzzle Brake was a Saint/Saint Victor Muzzle Brake worth 29.99. My gun was supposed to be a $60 SAINT® Edge Multi-Port Muzzle Brake and I feel cheated very disappointed

Sorry that so many of these comments are priggish. I don't know why boys like to pile on, with each one trying to be more insulting than the last.

You weren't here when he showed up. Several posts have been deleted.

Long story short, many of us here started with helpful suggestions of several different kinds. When it became apparent that he didn't WANT his problem "solved," that he could get more mileage out of whining about the problem and claiming to be a victim and so forth, some of us decided not to play his game any more.

Now that you know the facts, you can decide whether or not you want to play this game. Some of us will be watching from the sidelines because, darn it, it IS entertaining.

Muzzle Brakes Recoil control on the muzzle is important to me when I compete

There isn't that much recoil from a 5.56 round.

Are we in a period film from 19th century England. Priggish? You sir, are a fop and
a scoundrel and it behooves me to demand you meet me this Sunday in Victoria Park under the Great Oak where I will most certainly deliver you a thrashing. Priggish. Indeed.
