Sons Of Liberty Gun Works recently announced a limited production run of its SOLGW MK1 carbines and rifles in the historic USMC Frog Skin camouflage pattern to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the US Marine Corps. The Frog Skin pattern is reminiscent of the Pacific Theater during the Second World War, where the US Marine Corps fought across island campaigns against the armies and navies of Imperial Japan. Two shades will be available, a “beach” and a “jungle” variant.
The Sons of Libery Gun Works MK1 series are direct-gas-impingement firearms based on the AR-15. Both its upper receiver and the railed M-Lok handguard are designed to mesh together at the rifle’s breech area to mimic the continuity of a monolithic rail in order to offer the end user a “seamless” rail space. This makes it easier to mount optics or gear that work directly with each other, such as magnifiers and red-dot sights or thermal sights and/or IR laser modules. The top portion of this continuous stretch of rail space also includes a deep-cut channel through the middle of the Picatinny rail surface to aid the user with cable management and routing for any tactical accessories mounted around this SBR.
The edges of the Picatinny rail surfaces are also scalloped and rounded in order to reduce sharp edges that could potentially be harmful to the various cables from the end user’s gear. Sons Of Liberty offers three different kinds of barrels, from stainless steel to standard CMV barrel steel to a polygonal-rifled barrel. The gas ports in these respective barrels are conservatively sized to provide smoother function with suppressors.
All Sons of Liberty Gun Works Mk1 SBR lowers are built with longer-A5 length receiver extensions. These elongated buffer tubes use a rifle-length recoil spring and a longer, heavier buffer to provide smoother and less violent and abrupt cycling for a more consistent and predictable recoil impulse.
