Sons of Liberty Gun Works GARAND THUMB TF69 Semi-Automatic Rifle .223 Remington 14.5" Barrel (1)-30Rd Magazine Flip Sights Black Cerakote Finish
Ladies, gentlemen, and the often forgotten, but never by Garand Thumb, Sons of Liberty Gun Works, and Garand Thumb die-hards - Sons of Liberty Gun Works is happy to have the opportunity to offer a rifle that many have dared to dream of, the Garand Thumb 14.5" Mid-Length Rifle. Designed with direct input and oversight by the legend myself, Sons of Liberty Gun Works has built this rifle tip-to-butt to his specs. Chambered in 5.56, this rifle has a 14.5" barrel with a smooth shooting Mid-Length gas system, a 1:7 twist rate, and on the muzzle, a Surefire SF3P flash hider that is pinned and welded in place to give you a non-NFA overall barrel length. Outside the barrel is a 13.75" M89 Drive Lock Rail, known for its mounting system. Moving back, you'll find the SOLGW upper and lower receivers, which are known for their tight tolerances and high-quality finish. The lower receiver features the SOLGW Scalper logo, and unique to this gun only, the Task Force 69 logo on the magwell, which alone is almost enough to justify your purchase. The lower receiver also includes a Geissele SSA-E trigger which is a 2-stage, with a 3.5lb pull weight and is well known and loved by serious shooters everywhere. Additionally, the Garand Thumb Rifle has the SOLGW ambidextrous Quick safety selector installed. For a grip, a BCM MOD 0 was selected, and at the rear, a BCM MOD 0 buttstock was chosen to go on the SOLGW A5 buffer system. Finally, the whole rifle receives a very durable Armor Black Cerakote finish. Each Garand Thumb 14.5" Mid-Length Rifle includes 3 standard capacity 30 round magazines and a soft case. So if you've ever dreamed of ghosting a trigger pull with Garand Thumb, go ahead and hit that add to cart button.

The information below comes from our Gun Caliber Dictionary and is for
general reference only. It does not describe the specifications of this
particular item.
Introduced in 1964, the 223 Remington is the civilian version of the 5.56x45mm NATO cartridge. Although very similar to the 222 Remington it has a slightly longer case and a shorter neck, giving it greater powder capacity and thus higher velocity--which was necessary to meet military penetration requirements at longer range. NOTE: 223 Remington ammunition may be safely fired in any 5.56x45mm chamber, but 5.56x45mm ammunition SHOULD NOT BE USED in a 223 chamber! Standard is a 55-grain bullet at 3240 feet per second, with lighter bullets somewhat faster and heavier bullets a bit slower. The 223 is the most popular 22 centerfire today, and possiby the most popular centerfire cartridge. Ammunition choices are legion, as are choices in firearms. The 223 is an accurate cartridge ideally suited for varmint hunting out to beyond 300 yards, and with heavy-bullet loads designed for the purpose is used effectively by many deer hunters.
