I cant say enough good things about this company. I bought a 24inch 6.5 barrel them...called them to double check the journal for the gas port so I could get the correct gas block. Mike called me back from his personal cell and said if I ever had any problems to hit him up. So much respect goin out to them for all they do🤘🙏
I don’t normally comment on videos or forums…but I wanted to thank everyone at Brownell’s for supporting the troops and all of those in TH-cam land who service this great nation in the armed forces!!! Happy Veteran’s Day!!!
I've spoken with Mike on the phone at length and interacted with him online. He's the real f***ng deal. He's far too humble about the body of knowledge he has built around the AR platform. Great guy running a great operation.
Cot damnit, Mike is such cool ass dude. Call me a fanboy all you want. SOLGW is my first go to company when it comes to anything AR. Keep killing it brother!
I bought some firing pin retaining pins from PSA that kept bending out of shape and eventually breaking early on within a couple hundred rounds. I ordered some then from SOLGW and have been using the same one for the past couple years now. I’m a fan and can’t wait to get a full SOLGW ar
@@RememberPele PSA has a lot of potential I just feel like they let quality control slip by the waist side sometimes. I have a 16” PSA that’s been damn good to me. It’s one of my cheaper rifles but one of my favorites to shoot. I’ve also had to send some stuff back to them because it was clearly out of spec. It’s kind of hit or miss with them it seems but I guess the good thing is they have always swapped out what I return or reimbursed me.
I had a firing pin on one of their AK's mushroom with less then 250 rounds. Instead of sending me a $10 replacement pin, they wanted me to send the complete rifle in. Hard pass, bought another somewhere else and have had no issues. Their QC sucks.
@@iTheEncounter they are still selling complete firearms. They were out of stock for so long because of the pandemic and the were focused on supplying their dealers. Their complete guns are in stock at Brownells and multiple other places. Look for yourself.

I just purchased a SOLGW combat grade barrel 16" mid length gas. Having nothing but gas issues. Using it on a normal 223/556 platform using a Adams Arms short stroke gas piston system. The barrel came with a .078" gas port and needs to be larger (.081") to work with the gas piston system. I have reached out to SOLGW several times to get assistance, no one has reached back yet or picked up the phone.
Their barrels arent meant to be used with a gas piston system. Use it with a carbine h2 buffer and sprinco blue or Sprinco green a5h2 buffer with a regular midlength gas tube
@@5jjt Year late but other peoples stuff. They just assemble and charge DD/LWRCI prices. Minus the CHF barrels. If they had CHF barrels I’d probably get one. But hard pass for the price.
This ^ 👆🏼Been waiting over a year for 2 different M76 rails. I know SOLGW is probably as impatient to take our money and get the stuff out the door, but man, it sucks waiting and not knowing why.
@@JEJAK5396 they didn’t go into that much detail just said it’s hard to get what they need and they can’t keep up. I do know they’re working on a revised rail which Mike even posted about that on IG last week or the week before.
My brother told me about your brand/company and I was wondering are you also doing any custom color schemes desert storm sand color OD green etc ... ? TIA
If you are looking for the custom feel with the same kinda SOLGW passion out of San Antonio, give Bexar Arms a look. Customer service is amazing and very helpful. He has a 13.7 pin and weld upper that is dynamite.
I have had psa uppers that were great and a Daniel Def upper I liked..the SOL upper was the best gun I had ever owned hands down..miss that baby ..maybe when I get some cash some day ilk get another upper
Would be nice if they would actually have stock supposedly have all these amazing rifles and products but can only get a 14.5 that garandpinky designed
As much as I like SOLGW, their bolt was causing my gun to keyholing 20 foot at 100 yards, upon swapping to a BCM it was shooting half inch at 100. Probably a fluke, but it left a bad taste in my mouth.
@Emmanuel Goldsteinif you consider Mega-Arms and Criterion barrels budget, I'm curious what you consider isn't budget. The SOLGW bolt was the problem, and the problem was fixed with a BCM bolt, it was like flipping a light switch in terms of difference, for shits and giggles I ordered a second BCM bolt face and swapped it into the SOLGW carrier and it worked fine just like the BCM bolt and carrier did, I'd say the something SOLGW did with the bolt face had some problems, I never did follow up with em to get it warrantied, I figured let it go.
@@johndunbar2393 this is exactly my point 😂 there's a fuckton that do exactly that, literally too many to list but the SOLGW hype has you thinking they're the only one lmao.

Mihalski Makes Threats Against Officers There was harassing behavior against police dispatchers in 2009. Then, in 2010, Mihalski was arrested for public intoxication. During the arrest Mihalski claimed he killed Sgt. Bocko, Bocko was one of the officers who survived the Denny’s attack on police officers by Jamie Lichtenwalter. Sgt. Bocko died in a motorcycle accident several years after the attack. Mihalski claims to have been friends with Lichtenwalter and according to the KSAT article, Lichtenwalter did work for Mihalski’s mother for about eight months. During the intoxication arrest, Mihalski attempted to attack the officers and claimed he would kill them.
