Have not seen or shot either, have been interested in the concept though?
Heard the HK will probably never be available to the public. Heard that both systems are very nose heavy. All just internet BS so probably not worth the time it took to type. For me due to price, I will be sticking with my regular AR style gas system for my personal gun. I have just never had a problem with it.

Also that POF used to be called Pakistani Ordnance Factory, now a name change and it says made in USA, don’t know much other than that.

Shotgun News did an article about it and it received very high remarks. I intend to pick one up once they come out with the 6.5mm variant.

I was wondering about that. If you look at the Patriot Ordnance Factory web site thay state that they are a distributor HK parts made by Pakistani Ordnance Factory. Also, Patriot Ordnance Factory's manufacturing plant is located in Glenndale, Arizonia.

According to the guy who runs cetmerifles.com, POF-USA is not Pakistani Ordnance Factory, but an American company who does sell Pakistani Ordnance Factory HK parts. Sooooo.... POF-USA is not nor never was POF.

Last weekend I was at a pistol class and one of the students was some sort of Vendor/rep for the POF rifles. I played a little with them during the breaks but did not get a chance to shoot one.

I was not able to attend the rifle course which followed, but a friend who did said the POF rifles had several malfunctions throught the 2 days of shooting.

I will email him and try to more specifics.

The guy is featured on the POF website demoing one of their rifles in the video Gallery portion. He is affiliated with the range complex that held the class, I'm not sure his exact relationship with POF.

Here's a link to Dave shooting the rifle. Great guy, real nice to work with.

The event was a 2 day pistol (Fightiong Pistol) and 2 day rifle (Fighting Rifle) class taught by Tactical Response http://www.tacticalresponse.com/
Great class, shot about 1500 rns of 9mm. Unable to attend the rifle portion due to work commitments.

I am going to call foul on this one, the first time I saw thier piston driven upper the web site was pakistani ordnance, and they did specialize in HK parts at that time not to long later came the name change

my first thought was " no fucking way am I buying shit from theese guys with a name like that"
