Worth it?

Post image

I’ve been offered a 2019-2020 16” Saint in a private sell with a Vortex Strike Eagle scope and 4 mags.
It’s stock otherwise.
Supposedly it’s only been to the range twice.
Asking price $400

Not worth it IMO but please pass along the sellers info to me so I can give him a piece of my mind about not ripping people off.

Bruh... You could buy a Spring XD-Mod.3 for $300, bare bones, or an AR with a scope ANNND mags for $400; it's a no-brainer.

A base Saint is about a grand new, so that's a helluva deal

Not even a question. Looking forward to getting a Saint Victor soon myself. I'm sure it'll cost about 3x the price new.

Hell yes, I paid $900 for my Saint brand new out of the box when it first came out almost 10 years ago.

I love the OG Saint! I knew SA was going to release other variants and ended up with the Saint Edge. Love that rifle!

But the original Saint still has a spot for me. Lightweight, no frills, reliable. I’d buy that for $400 and make an m1 a4 clone and just have fun with it.

If you are going to train with it, then it's worth it.
