Spikes crusader vs Springfield Saint

[Stuohn]

What would I be giving up quality wise if I chose the Saint free float?

6/1 of one and 12/2 of the other.
How much "quality" do you feel you need?

The SA doesn't appear to have Bible verses on it. I would guess that those add to the overall cost of the Crusader without adding quailty to it. Some just like the way it looks because of those additions.

For most of our normal applications, I'm sure that they are both very competitive and of similar quailty and durability.

I was just trying to understand where the extra $600 would be going.

Thank you all for replies.

The saint is a basic ar with a freefloat handguard. The crusader has a good bit of add on parts. The crusader has a 14.5" barrel with pinned dynacom, so no changing parts with a major hassle. For the price of the spikes I'd buy a bcm.

For Spikes Crusader money, I'd get a Colt CCU. Mid length gas, MLOK handguard, and a tastefully prancing pony in place of some bible verses.

WAY better deal for that kind of money.

Thank everyone for responses, I decided to build.
