Our Assessment: The POF-USA ReVolt Light 5.56 NATO is a unique firearm that combines the features of an AR-style rifle with a straight pull bolt action mechanism. This innovative design by Patriot Ordnance Factory (POF-USA) caters to shooters in jurisdictions with restrictive laws on semi-automatic rifles, offering an alternative that maintains much of the functionality and ergonomics of the AR platform while complying with those regulations.
Chambered in 5.56 NATO, the ReVolt Light is capable of firing both 5.56 NATO and .223 Remington cartridges, providing versatility in ammunition selection. This rifle is distinctive for its straight pull bolt action, which allows for rapid cycling of rounds without the traditional semi-automatic function. This mechanism is particularly advantageous for precision shooting and hunting, where the legality and precision of bolt-action rifles are preferred.
The ReVolt Light is built with several high-quality features typical of POF-USA rifles. It includes a 18-inch nitride heat-treated barrel, renowned for its durability and resistance to wear and corrosion. The barrel also incorporates POF-USA’s triple-port muzzle brake, which significantly reduces recoil and muzzle rise, enhancing shooter comfort and follow-up shot accuracy.
In terms of ergonomics and functionality, the ReVolt Light mimics the AR-15 platform, with a familiar layout and controls, including a free-floating handguard with M-LOK attachment points for accessories, and a fully ambidextrous billet lower receiver. This design ensures that it handles similarly to more traditional AR-15 rifles, making it easy for shooters to transition to the ReVolt without retraining their muscle memory.
Additionally, the rifle features POF-USA’s E2 dual-extraction technology, which involves four small channels cut into the walls of the chamber allowing a small amount of gas pressure to push against the neck of the spent case. This innovative feature significantly improves reliability in extraction and ejection processes.
Overall, the POF-USA ReVolt Light 5.56 NATO Straight Pull Bolt Action Rifle is an exceptional choice for those seeking a high-performance rifle with the ergonomic benefits of the AR platform but in a bolt-action configuration. It is especially suited for shooters in restrictive states or those who prefer the bolt-action mechanism for its precision and simplicity. Please see our photos and good luck on your bid! – L.S.
