(Melbourne, FL) January 3, 2018 – FightLite® Industries, the country’s leading manufacturer of innovative, mission-configurable firearms, parts and accessories announces that it will be introducing some groundbreaking new products at SHOT Show this year in Booth #12971, located in the upstairs Main Hall, Level 2 Section of the show. The annual SHOT Show is being hosted at the Sands Convention Center in Las Vegas January 23-26, 2018.
FightLite® Industries is also hosting live-fire, full-auto range activities at the official SHOT Show Industry Day being held on Monday, January 22, 2018 at the Boulder Rifle and Pistol Club range facility and invites all attendees to shoot exclusive FightLite® products by visiting FightLite® Industries’ Full-Auto Bay #SR39 during the event.
“We’re always excited to exhibit at the SHOT Show each year and spend time visiting with both new and established US and International customers, while introducing new products that we’ve come up with since the last show. One of the hot new products we’ll introduce to dealers at SHOT this year is our brand new FightLite® SCR® “Raider” Pistol in both 5.56 NATO and 300 BLK. We first introduced the SCR® Pistol to sporting goods wholesale Distributors this past fall at NASGW in San Antonio and it was an instant smash hit generating record sales along with some very excited wholesale buyers!” said Geoffrey Herring, President-CEO. “The FightLite® Raider™ is a direct-gas operated pistol and is based on our very successful and patented SCR® receiver set, featuring a free floating 7.5” barrel with a choice of KeyMod or M-Lok® accessory interface and is finished off with a Shockwave Technologies® grip for a very compact, rifle caliber handgun that can accurately engage targets far beyond the reach or range of traditional pistols!”
In addition to exhibiting its exciting new FightLite® Raider™ Pistol, the company will also showcase its flagship 8.5 lb. select-fire Squad Automatic MCR® that shares the excellent ergonomics of the M4A1 and which feeds reliably from both M27-linked ammunition belts and standard M16 magazines at operator discretion. Featuring reliable gas-piston operation and a tool-less quick-change barrel system; the patented MCR® is the lightest and most portable belt fed machine gun in the world. Optionally available as an upper receiver upgrade “kit” that retrofits to all MIL-Spec AR15/M16 and M4 lower receivers, the MCR® can also be purchased in a semi-auto configuration for civilian users.
There’s a product for everyone at the FightLite® booth this year including the innovative and patented SCR® (Sport Configurable Rifle) which is not only legal almost anywhere in America including New York City and California, but is the only rifle to have ever successfully combined the traditional lines of a hunting pattern rifle with the modularity and caliber options of an AR-15 type rifle.
The SCR® blends the strength, reliability, accuracy and rugged all-weather characteristics of America’s longest serving infantry rifle with the classic lines of an American sporter. Lightweight, accurate and featuring a MIL-STD 1913 flat top upper receiver that accepts most modern optics, the SCR® is designed to perform under the most demanding field, competitive shooting or tactical conditions and its multi-caliber, modular design permits sportsmen to instantly change calibers in the field by simply pressing two pins and exchanging one upper receiver assembly for another.
To learn more about innovative products from FightLite® Industries including its new and highly efficient RipBrake™ muzzle compemsator, please visit Booth #12971 at this year’s SHOT Show.

Phoenix, AZ. (January 2018) – Patriot Ordnance Factory is proud to announce the American Rifleman magazine has chosen the POF USA Revolution for the 2018 Golden Bullseye Award for Rifle of the Year. American Rifleman is the National Rifle Association’s primary magazine with a focus on reviews of different firearms, historical articles about firearms, technical information about reloading and notes from the President of the NRA. The Revolution will be featured in an editorial overview which will appear in the May 2018 issue of American Rifleman, American Hunter, and Shooting Illustrated magazines.
The annual Golden Bullseye Award will be presented to Patriot Ordnance Factory at the invitation-only breakfast Friday May 4th, 2018 during the 2018 NRA Annual Meetings & Exhibits in Dallas, Texas. To be considered for the Golden Bullseye Award, the Revolution was tested and reviewed by the publication’s staff and found to represent the finest quality in a shooting sports product that exceeds not only the reviewers’ expectations, but also its customers.
“The entire Patriot Ordnance Factory Team is extremely pleased to accept this coveted award,” said John Piscione Director of Sales.
The Revolution continues the POF tradition of Relentless Reliability and American innovation. The Revolution is POF-USA’s .308 battle rifle that handles like a 5.56 – because it’s the same size and weight as one. The Revolution features many 5.56 parts; such as charging handle, bolt carrier, roller cam pin, buffer, heat-sink barrel nut, handguard, and 5-position gas piston operating system. The barrel extension, bolt assembly, upper, and lower receiver are the exact same size as those on an AR15. This is truly an AR15 that shoots in .308!
Weighing in at 7.3 lbs. the Revolution features POF-USA’s new slim Edge handguard with four built-in QD mounts. It’s loaded with features such as a fully ambidextrous billet receiver set, Nickel-Phosphate coated bolt carrier group, 5-position adjustable gas piston, single stage match grade trigger, and more. You may have just found your “one gun.”
