Rifles Descriptions

303 British - 174 Grain FMJ Mk VIIz - Canadian Military Surplus - 384 Rounds *CORROSIVE*

This 303 British ammunition was made for the Canadian military during the 1940s. There can be little wonder which occasion it was manufactured for. If your Lee–Enfield has been gathering dust for the past year, this is a great way to finally open it back up again! While we wouldn’t go out of our way to offer you unusable ammo, we cannot reasonably promise that such old ammo will fire with 100% reliability. We regret there’s no other condition under which you can fire WWII surplus ammo these days – there’s never going to be another WWII. This ammunition is corrosive. You’re likely already aware what that means: Failure to follow extra steps while cleaning will destroy your rifle with rust! These cartridges feature new brass cases and Berdan primers. We have not yet discerned this ammo’s muzzle velocity or whether its FMJ projectile is magnetic. (Please pay no attention to where our site says this case contains 380 rounds. We hadn’t set our site up ahead of time to offer so unusual a quantity of ammo.)

Bushmaster Gas Piston 90294

The Bushmaster Gas Piston System Rifles bring new levels of reliability to the “AR” type rifle platform by eliminating carbon build up, gas leaks and heat within the Upper Receiver. The Gas Piston System operates by tapping gas pressure off the barrel much like the systems found on AK-47s and FALs * Functions with a wider range of ammunition - less gas pressure - lower cyclic rate * Offers improved reliability and control - with cleaner operation and reduced recoil * Keeps carbon build up and powder residue from reaching - and fouling the Upper Receiver and Bolt Carrier * A Detented Plug in the Gas Block allows easy cleaning of the Systems’ Hard Chrome Plated Piston
