    7.5”, but the hand guard is 9” to hug up to the flash can. So it looks a bit longer than it should.

    Gotcha. That’s a little shorter than I thought. Doesn’t having a barrel that short compromise range & accuracy?

    Yes, but I built this for fun lol. Very little recoil and again super light, my 5’ 120lb wife has no issues running it. If I wanted a long shooter, I’d build a 6.5 creed. Which I probably will soon.

    That’s actually a SBA PDW brace. One of the better ones out there!

    Corrected my original post.**

    The BAD lever takes some getting used to, but it is convenient.

    Question for you folks.

    I want a nice 556/223 build but don’t feel like building one at the moment. I’m trying to keep my budget below 1.5k.

    Thoughts?

    TIA.

    Understood. No judgment...it’s a nice looking build. I’m new to building and trying to figure stuff out. I’ve seen all kinds of builds on here... I keep finding myself leaning in the direction of BCM parts/builds but, dang those parts come with a price tag & seem hard to find in stock.

    The Springfield “Saint” line is very nice. I was trying to buy the Saint Victor but couldn’t find it in stock so I went the build route.

    That is definitely the situation right now with guns in general. BCM makes quality stuff. Piece it together when you find stuff in stock, you don’t have to buy everything at once.

    You know, I’ve seen some mixed reviews on that line but I highly value everyone’s opinion in here so thanks for that input.

    @SouthernYoder I bought my Saint Victor about 1.5-2 years ago. Very happy with it. Pretty quality rifle out of the box. I'm sure prices have changed but got it for $995 shipped to my ffl.

    Yeah prices have went up a little. I really paid the piper when I finished my 6.5 grendel.

    that’s good to hear because I know of a place that has one ready to rock for 1.2k
