#Revolution

Patriot Ordnance Factory (POF-USA) has added 6mm Creedmoor as an option for their Prescott and Revolution semi-automatic models. They both use 22” barrels with 1:8 rifling, POF’s 3-port break, a 14.5” MMR handguard, a single-stage match trigger made by POF, and MFT pistol grip. The new 6mm Creedmoor Revolution (MSRP from $2,903) and Prescott (MSRP from $2,365) are available in bronze or black anodized finish.

The POF-USA Revolution .308 AR10 patterned rifle has won the 2019 Rifle of the Year award from the Firearms Industry Choice Awards. Details on the announcement and the award can be found below.

In this episode of TFBTV’s #NRAAM2019 coverage, James Speaks with the gang from POF about their new POF Revolution, a .308 AR-15 (NOT an AR-10) that WEIGHS LESS THAN A 9MM MP5! How do they achieve this? Check the video and find out.

The lockplate on this ca. 1745 musket is, to me, the ultimate symbol of the American Revolution. Edward Jordan was a British gunsmith, active between 1733 and 1760. This example of his work found its way to the colonies and was originally in the hands of a Redcoat. At some point, the gun became a battlefield pickup and was given a US stamping over his name once before being pressed into service with one of the American soldiers.

New from POF-USA are pistol versions of their small-frame .308 Revolution and their DI renegade.  The new Revolution pistols in .308 feature a 12.5″ fluted barrel, buffer tube with brace and an 11.5″ handguard with M-lok.  They are available in a black or NP3 finish.  Weighing 6.9lbs, these new pistols also have sling attachment points fore, mid and aft and have a 3-prong flash hider to mitigate excessive flash from non-SBR optimized loads.  MSRP is $2659.00.   While expensive, I can personally attest to the build quality of current generation POF-USA products.  They are accurate, reliable, easy to clean, and have excellent, durable finishes.

The POF USA Revolution compact .308 rifle continues to rack up awards, as it has been awarded the NRA American Rifleman Magazine’s 2018 Golden Bullseye award for Rifle of the Year.  Just this past August , industry peers and professionals awarded the Revolution the 2017 Firearms Industry Choice Award for Rifle of the Year.   Previously reviewed here at TFB, the Revolution is a relatively lightweight .308 AR-platform rifle that this author found to be accurate, pleasant to shoot, easy to clean, and 100% reliable throughout the review.  

In recent years, “compact” .308 AR-style rifles have come onto the scene.  I say “AR-style” rather than AR10/SR25 being that the rifles I’m referring to are a blend of both, or in the case of the Colt 901, a system unto itself.  The most widely known may be the DPMS GII series, but there are also offerings from higher quality manufacturers, one of the newer ones being from POF-USA: The Revolution.  I must admit, I was pretty excited to see what POF-USA would bring to the table with their version of a compact .308 AR.  Here are the quick facts on the Revolution from POF-USA

Knight Rifles have recalled the Revolution or Revolution II because of concerns that it could discharge when closing the action. Only the trigger assembly needs to be returned.
