Overview
The Springfield Saint Victor PDW 5.56 NATO AR-15 pistol with Maxim SCW brace is a purpose-built personal defense weapon optimized for maneuverability. The Maxim SCW brace collapses to a total length of just under 23 inches, making it one of the most compact 5.56 platforms available while maintaining a full-length buffer system for reliable cycling. Built on a forged 7075 T6 aluminum receiver set with a hard-coat anodized finish, this pistol includes the Saint Victor’s enhanced trigger group, nickel boron coated bolt carrier group, and a 10.3-inch chrome-moly vanadium barrel with a 1:7 twist rate.
