The Smith & Wesson M&P15 Sport ll is one of the most popular sporting rifles available, and this Molon Labe Spartanclad Bronze Cerakoted model is truly extraordinary. 

While MOLON LABE is familiar to many, for those who are not familiar here is a brief history. 

The phrase has its origins back to the days of the Greek city states in 480 BC. Persia was in the process of invading Greece, and Sparta took up the challenge to confront them.

At the beginning of the Battle of Thermopylae that King Leonidas of Sparta and his men,  greatly outnumbered by the Persian army, with no chance of winning, chose to stay and fight.

With the Spartans facing certain death, Xerxes of Persia demanded that Leonidas and his men lay down their arms and surrender.

King Leonidas responded to Xerxes defiantly: Molon Labe ("come and take them").

The Spartans fought valiantly for 3 days and held the Persians at bay allowing the rest of Greece to evacuate and allowing them the opportunity to marshal a counter attack later. Because those few stood against the many, protecting their families and their fellow country men, the Persian army was ultimately defeated. 

This rifle and it's special Spartan Bronze coating is a tribute to those vailiant warriors and a reminder that our right to bear arms is a cause that will always be worth fighting for. Molon Labe.
