Current role: Vice President of Sales & Marketing, Sons of Liberty Gun Works
Primary focus: firearms-industry leadership, rifle systems, optics, suppressors, product education, and competitive shooting.
Professional Biography
Sean Murphy is Vice President of Sales & Marketing for Sons of Liberty Gun Works (SOLGW). His professional background spans firearms-industry sales, marketing, product management, training, optics, suppressors, and competitive shooting.
At SOLGW, Murphy helps connect the company’s rifles, components, technical standards, and support philosophy with professional and civilian end users. The role requires more than conventional product promotion: it sits between manufacturing, dealers, instructors, working shooters, and customers trying to configure reliable rifles for specific applications.
Firearms-Industry Experience
Before joining SOLGW, Murphy held roles with KGM Suppressors and Nightforce Optics. Those positions added experience with suppressor systems, precision and duty optics, product development, technical education, and the requirements of shooters working across close-range, general-purpose, and long-range applications.
That breadth is particularly relevant to rifle-system refinement. A rifle, optic, mount, ammunition selection, suppressor, and shooter do not function as independent products. Each choice affects weight, balance, reliability, handling, observation capability, recoil behavior, maintenance, and the system’s suitability for its intended role.
Competitive Shooting
Murphy’s competitive shooting background includes action-shooting and long-range disciplines. Competition provides an environment in which equipment choices and shooter processes can be tested against measurable performance, time pressure, positional demands, and repeated use.
This experience informs his practical perspective on rifle setup and product design. The useful question is not simply whether a component performs well by itself, but whether it improves the complete rifle-and-shooter system without creating unacceptable compromises elsewhere.
