Springfield Armory Announces Launch of the SAINT Victor 8.5” 9mm Pistol

GENESEO, ILL. (07/08/25) – Springfield Armory® is proud to announce the release of the SAINT® Victor 8.5” 9mm Pistol, the newest addition to the Victor line of AR-pattern firearms. This 9mm-chambered AR-pattern pistol with an 8.5” barrel adds a new level of capability to the popular SAINT Victor series.

The SAINT Victor 8.5” 9mm Pistol is designed to deliver a highly capable 9mm with all the performance and capability you have come to expect from the SAINT Victor line. Featuring forged 7075 T6 aluminum dedicated 9mm upper and lower receivers, this new pistol is built to deliver.

Employing a rugged direct blowback system of operation that ensures rock-solid reliability, the SAINT Victor 8.5” 9mm Pistol features a Melonite®-treated 8.5” barrel that combines compact dimensions with maximized ballistic performance with the 9mm chambering.

The pistol feeds from the included Colt®-pattern, 32-round magazine that interfaces with the pistol’s dedicated 9mm lower. Rounding out the package is an adjustable SB Tactical SBA3 pistol brace on the receiver extension; a B5 Systems polymer trigger guard and B5 Systems Type 23 P-Grip; and a 45-degree, short-throw ambidextrous safety.
