San Antonio, TX – July 8, 2025 – Sons of Liberty Gun Works (SOLGW), maker of the World’s Finest Fighting Rifles, is proud to announce several key developments from Q2 2025 that mark a period of unprecedented growth and expansion across military, law enforcement, and commercial markets.
To support the company’s continued upward trajectory, SOLGW has made two strategic hires: Sean Murphy has joined as Vice President of Sales and Marketing, bringing a decade and a half of industry experience in sales, marketing, training and business development roles. Scott Petersen also joins the team at Director of Special Projects, having recently retired from the prestigious U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit, and has been working on a range of initiatives from increasing production capacity to pushing the edge of performance on new product development projects.
The company has also seen ever growing presence with law enforcement agencies, with over 60 new agencies adopting SOLGW rifles in the first half of 2025 alone. Among the major successes is the delivery of more than 375 EXO3 rifles for patrol use with a major southeastern US agency, representing one of the largest single-agency deployments in the company’s history.
As demand for Sons of Liberty rifles grows, so too does the reach of our Platinum Dealer Network. In June, we proudly welcomed several elite retailers to the fold, including:
Real Street Tactical (FL)
Midwest Shooting Centers (7-locations across Midwest)
Ray’s Sporting Goods (TX)
Texas Gun Experience (TX)
XCal Shooting Sports (VA)
Shark Coast Tactical (FL)
…and more to be announced.
These partners represent the best in service, training, and community presence—and reflect the same standards of excellence SOLGW demands in our products.
Adding to this momentum is the launch of the MK1 Rifle, SOLGW’s next generation fighting rifle platform, engineered for unmatched reliability and shooting performance, with a multitude of refinements that make the MK1 a premiere option for both professional and civilian applications.
“We’re scaling without compromise,” said Nate Horvath, CEO of Sons of Liberty Gun Works. “Everything we do—from dealer partnerships to law enforcement support to military programs—is driven by a commitment to mission-first performance. Our growth is a direct result of that focus, and we’re proud to be earning the trust of professionals across the country.”
“This is a pivotal moment for Sons of Liberty,” said Mike Mihalski, founder and Chief Product Officer. “We’ve always said we build rifles for people who rely on them when it matters most. That mission is resonating across agencies, units, and responsible citizens alike. We’re grateful—and we’re just getting started.”
