By The Numbers - Springfield - Saint B5 - 5.56 NATO

Accuracy
A mediocre trigger is the limiting factor here
Reliability
Extremely reliable
Customization
AR-15 means near infinite customization, but the front sight block does make things a little more difficult
Ergonomics
The B5 systems furniture feels great in the hand
Overall
While reliable and well-equipped, a full-length handguard and a better trigger would serve this gun well
