SOLGW MK1 STA billet fighting rifle in Navy camo finish, Swiss Edition

The SOLGW MK1 marks Para Bellum's exclusive Swiss distribution of Sons of Liberty Gun Works' most advanced fighting-rifle platform. Built from a full billet upper, lower and rail receiver set, it pairs a pinned-and-welded barrel with P3 polygonal rifling and the proprietary MK1 DriveLock rail. From the titanium barrel nut to the NP3-coated bolt carrier group, every part is built for reliability, round after round. That is why the SOLGW MK1 is used by serious shooters, law-enforcement units and armed professionals across Switzerland, France, Austria and Germany.

The engineering

Billet-built, from receiver to bolt

Four design choices define the MK1's reputation for holding zero and running clean under hard, sustained use.

Billet receiver set & pinned barrel

A full billet upper, lower and rail set with a pinned-and-welded barrel keeps the muzzle device permanently secured for consistent performance.

MK1 DriveLock rail

The DriveLock system locks solidly to the upper receiver with 7-sided M-LOK slots, so optics and accessories hold a repeatable zero, even after hard mounting.

Titanium barrel nut & NP3 BCG

A titanium barrel nut manages heat under sustained fire, while the NP3-coated SOLGW bolt carrier group runs slick and cleans up fast.

Match trigger & controls

A Liberty 2-stage trigger at 4.5 lb, an ambidextrous Badger safety selector and an enhanced A5 buffer system deliver smooth, controllable recoil.
