The Springfield Armory Saint Victor 9mm 5.5" Low-Capacity Pistol packs uncompromised, large-format firepower into an ultra-compact personal defense layout custom-tailored for capacity-restricted jurisdictions. Running on a rugged direct blowback system, this specialized 9mm firearm bypasses traditional gas blocks to ensure flawless feeding cycles and absolute reliability under hard use. Both the upper and lower receivers are precision-forged from 7075-T6 aluminum and matched tightly via the integrated Accu-Tite™ tension system to eliminate any receiver slop. Hidden beneath its free-floating aluminum M-LOK® handguard sits a 5-inch chrome moly vanadium barrel treated with a premium Melonite® finish. The muzzle comes factory-capped with a recessed SA Muzzle Drum forward-blast diverter designed to punch sound and concussive waves away from the operator. Built out-of-the-box for seamless customization, the STV95509BLC configuration comes outfitted with an adjustable SB Tactical SBA3 pistol brace on a 3-position receiver extension, an enhanced nickel-boron coated flat face match trigger, and an ergonomic B5 Systems grip. It feeds reliably from state-compliant steel 10-round Colt®-pattern magazines.
