Description
Most .308 ARs feel like you strapped a boat anchor to a rifle. The Revolution DI is POF's answer to that problem, and it's a clever one. By using an AR-15 sized bolt carrier, barrel extension, charging handle, and receiver set, they built a 7.62 NATO rifle that weighs in around 6.8 pounds empty and measures just 34 inches with the stock collapsed. Pick it up next to a traditional AR-10 and the difference is immediately obvious. This is a big-bore rifle you can carry all day without regretting your life choices.
What Makes the Revolution DI Different
The direct impingement system keeps things simple, and the 9-position Dictator adjustable gas block is where this rifle really earns its keep. Running a suppressor? Shooting light factory loads one day and heavier stuff the next? A few clicks and the gun is tuned to run right. The 16.5 inch barrel is 4150 chrome-moly steel with 5R rifling, a 1:10 twist, and a nitride heat treatment for hardness and corrosion resistance, with 5/8×24 muzzle threads wearing POF's triple-port brake to tame recoil and muzzle rise. POF's patented E2 dual extraction chamber and roller cam pin round out the details that keep the action running smooth and cut down on wear over time.
Controls, Trigger, and Furniture on the POF Revolution
The billet-machined receivers are fully ambidextrous, including the mag release and bolt catch, so lefties get a proper setup out of the box. The trigger is a 4.5 pound single-stage drop-in unit that breaks clean and makes it easy to get the most out of that match-grade barrel. Up front, the 14.5 inch M-LOK Renegade rail gives you plenty of room for lights, bipods, and hand position, while the Mission First Tactical Minimalist stock keeps weight down and adjusts across six positions. The flat-top upper comes optic ready, and it ships with one 20-round Magpul PMAG. For a do-it-all .308, whether that's hunting, precision work at the range, or a serious general-purpose rifle, this one is tough to argue with.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the POF Revolution DI really the same size as an AR-15?
Very close to it. The bolt carrier length, barrel extension, charging handle, handguard, and receiver group are AR-15 sized, which is how POF got the weight down to roughly 6.8 pounds and the collapsed length to about 34 inches. It handles more like a 5.56 carbine than a typical AR-10, which is the whole point of the design.
Can I run a suppressor on the Revolution DI?
Yes, and it's set up well for it. The barrel has standard 5/8×24 muzzle threads, and the 9-position Dictator adjustable gas block lets you turn the gas down to compensate for the added back pressure a can creates. That tunability keeps the rifle from getting overgassed and beating itself up when suppressed.
What magazines does the Revolution DI use?
It runs standard SR-25 pattern magazines like the Magpul PMAG in .308, and one 20-round PMAG comes in the box. Ten and 25-round PMAGs work as well if you want different capacities for hunting or range days.
Does the POF Revolution DI come with sights or an optic?
No, it ships optic ready with a bare flat-top rail. The upper receiver and 14.5 inch M-LOK Renegade rail give you plenty of real estate to mount a scope, red dot, or backup iron sights however you like. Given the accuracy potential of the match-grade barrel, a quality magnified optic is a popular pairing.
