Many reliable brands took the path of establishing their reputation through years of hard work and dedication. Younger brands, however, need to think of a different route if they want to remain competitive with the old guard. For them, ingenuity is a necessity rather than a luxury. Patriot Ordnance Factory, frequently called POF USA, is one example of the new generation of firearm brands. Soon to come of age, this brand was founded in 2002 by aerospace engineer Frank DeSomma. It’s not for effect’s sake that we mention the founder’s background. Original gun configuration is what sets this brand apart from other market players. Ordnance Factory is known as the first manufacturer and seller of gas-piston-operated weapon systems on AR-style rifles. POF guns lack two major issues that frequently occur in traditional AR-15: carbon fouling and a short-barreled timing issue. To address these problems, the brand developed the Regulated Short-Stroke Gas System, which eliminates carbon fouling, and precise op-rod/piston geometry and regulated gas pressure. They allow for more precise timing, controlled bolt speeds, enhanced extraction and corrosion resistance.
POF Revolution
This is not some call to action and not even an enumeration of the brand's achievements. That’s the name of one of the POF weapons. The revolution series feature rifles with adjustable gas blocks, free float rail systems, and heat treated barrels. Even though such rifles are typically chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor, there are plenty of other calibers to choose from like 5.56x45mm NATO, .308 Win, and several others
POF Rogue
Even though POF Rogue stems from the POF Revolution rifle, it deserves a separate mention. This POF AR-style rifle is the lightest .308 semi-automatic rifle on the market. The manufacturer managed to achieve this without resorting to the unnecessary lightening cuts.
In addition to POF weapons, we also have a variety of gun components like triggers and charging handles. Build your own fighting machine or get one pre-assembled when you choose POF USA at Gritr Sports, your gun store powered by freedom.
