They have the best pre-packaged LPK on the market as far as I am concerned. Parts from L.W. Schneider or Schmid and KNS. Not sure who makes the springs.

The business perspective as an end user typically works well. Mike and them are all shooters and support your rights to the end. Pair that with a quality product and open sight to the sources and you have a winner.

They do make a pretty cool muzzle device (The Nox) and their mlok rails are pretty nice as well.

SOLGW should not even be spoken in the same sentence as Knights Armament. Period.
One is the very top of the food chain, the other a dumb boutique parts assembler. |

They sure went from unknown to marketing success rapidly, take note.
But their stuff is way overpriced. It's just standard dime a dozen AR stuff. They may assemble some nice parts but who couldn't for 2700 bucks. |

I didn't know anything about them really until I saw the owner on a Brownell's video talking about A5 gas systems. He seems to have a passion for it.

Have a barrel and LPK for a 11.5" pistol. Had no idea who they were as it was the only 11.5" I could find at the time and happened to need an LPK for the build as well.
It shoots. All that matters I guess? |

Usually when I am buying something like this, I buy the company, the product is a reflection of the company involved.

You're paying for quality control, and not shitty parts sourced from you don't know where. Transparency and upfront specs are what you get. I have a few bcg's but I'm happy with my sionic rifles.
