PATRIOT ORDNANCE FACTORY (POF) CMR REVOLUTION

Posted Jun 12, 2023

When it comes to quality manufacturing, there is no company more respected than Patriot Ordnance Factory (POF). With over 20 years of experience, POF prides itself on producing firearms and firearm parts with uncompromising quality control. This dedication to excellence is seen in their CMR Revolution, an AR-15 rifle that is lightweight, feature-rich and loaded with the latest technology.

When it comes to looks, the CMR Revolution does not disappoint. The rifle looks fantastic. Its modern, heat-treated aerospace aluminum upper and lower receivers, as well as its hard-coat anodized finish, make it both aesthetically pleasing and corrosion-resistant. The receivers are machined to mil-spec dimensions, as well as to a lesser-known standard called the POF Manufacturing Standard. This standard ensures that each POF receiver is manufactured with the highest quality materials and with superior specs, leading to greater accuracy and better performance.

The CMR Revolution also boasts several other features that make it a top-of-the-line firearm. The rifle is equipped with the POF “E2 Dual Extraction Technology,” which is a unique extraction system that utilizes dual gas-rings with two sets of extractors. This system allows for more reliable and consistent extraction of spent rounds, making it easier and more reliable to pull out a spent casing. The rifle is also equipped with a Magpul MOE pistol grip, an Ambidextrous Safety Selector, an Enhanced Mag Release, and a Single-Stage 4.5 lbs Trigger- pull. All of these features add to the performance and overall functionality of the CMR Revolution.

The performance of the CMR Revolution is second-to-none. It is a very accurate and reliable rifle capable of handling powerful rounds, and is light enough to be used for either close-quarters engagements or long-range encounters. The rifle is built to last, and can easily stand up to the rigors of hard-use and frequent shooting. The POF-designed gas system does an excellent job of regulating the rifle's gas cycle and providing smooth and consistent operation, making the CMR Revolution a great choice for both competition shooters and home defense enthusiasts alike.

In terms of features, the CMR Revolution has it all. The rifle includes Picatinny rails along the top, sides, and bottom for mounting optics, lasers, lights and other accessories. It is also equipped with a single-point slings attachment, and both a brass-catcher and a forward-assist. All of these features come standard on the CMR Revolution, and all combine to provide an extremely user-friendly experience.

The CMR Revolution is, quite simply, one of the finest rifles on the market today. The combination of its lightweight and corrosion-resistant exterior along with its advanced features and attention to detail make it a worthy investment for those looking for a quality AR-15 that they can depend on for years to come. The POF Manufacturing Standard ensures that its receivers are made to the highest specs, and its reliable and accurate gas system make it a great choice for competitions, self-defense, and hunting. All in all, fans of quality firearms can do no wrong with the CMR Revolution from Patriot Ordnance Factory.

The 8.5" handguard is made of POF's patent-pending nitrided heat-sink barrel, promoting better heat dispersion and accuracy as a result.

POF also incorporated their Enhanced Aluminum Bolt Carrier (EBC) into this rifle, which is designed to reduce wear and tear, and improve bolt locking. With these design features, POF has created a platform that provides improved accuracy and usability for the user.
