Type-A Rifle Company Introduces New M110 Clone: A Modern Nod To A Legendary System
Type-A Rifle Company has unveiled their latest rifle offering, an M110 Clone built on their newly designed Ambidextrous Billet AR10 platform. Paying homage to the legendary M110 Semi-Automatic Sniper System (SASS), this new rifle is a modern take on a design that has served military units since 2008.
The Legacy of the M110 SASS
The original M110 SASS was developed as a replacement for the M24 bolt-action sniper rifle, offering a faster rate of fire and enhanced modularity. This system was especially designed for urban warfare, featuring a quad rail and other attachments that made it far more adaptable than the M24. Its introduction was a major upgrade for units such as the 10th Mountain Division, who were among the first to receive the weapon during their deployment in Afghanistan in 2008. The higher rate of fire, build quality, and versatility of the M110 made it a standout system during the Global War on Terror (GWOT).
Bringing the Icon Back
With Type-A’s new M110 Clone, shooters can experience a rifle closely based on the original GWOT-era M110 but without the prohibitive price tag of the original deployment kits. This modern clone stays true to the iconic M110 while integrating advancements from Type-A’s AR10 expertise.
The Build: Precision and Durability
This M110 Clone is built on Type-A’s Ambidextrous Billet AR10 Armalite platform, combining elements from both the Armalite cut and the DPMS SR-25 to create a system that prioritizes reliability and accuracy. Here’s what makes it stand out:
• Barrel: The rifle comes in two variants, an 18” and a 20” model, both featuring 416R Stainless Steel Lightweight Contour barrels for enhanced precision.
• Handguard: Type-A equips the M110 Clone with their new Mk14C handguard, providing flexibility for mounting accessories.
• Muzzle Device: Each rifle features a Griffin’s Dual-Lock PSR (OTB) Muzzle, designed to minimize recoil and flash signature.
• Trigger System: The heart of the rifle’s performance is its TYPE-A PMC Straight 2-stage trigger, delivering consistent and reliable performance for every shot.
• Bolt Carrier Group: The Titanium Nitride coated bolt carrier group, polished to perfection, ensures smooth operation and extended durability.
• Stock and Grip: The rifle is outfitted with a Milspec A2 Fixed Stock and A2 Pistol Grip, reinforcing its authentic design while providing superior handling.
Durability and Finish
Type-A Rifle Company ensures their rifles are built to last. The M110 Clone is Hardcoat Anodized and Cerakoted to enhance durability. The added benefit of wearing down to the anodized finish, rather than raw aluminum, makes the rifle more resilient under harsh conditions, ensuring it looks as good as it performs over time.
Custom Color Options
The M110 Clone comes in a variety of custom finishes, including:
• Magpul™ Flat Dark Earth (H-267Q)
• Sig™ Dark Grey (H-210Q)
• Noveske™ Bazooka Green (H-189Q)
