Rifles Descriptions

Benelli R1 11772

BENELLI R-1 RIFLE .300 WIN MAG 24" BARREL Black Synthetic COMFORTECH Stock Benellis R1 big game rifle recently got bigger. The R1 is now available in .338 Winchester Magnum, considered one of the most respected North American big game cartridges thats suitable for hunting large game like brown bear, moose and elk and Africas largest plains game. The Benelli R1 with ComforTech is currently available in .30-06, .300 Win. Mag., and the latest additionthe .338 Winchester Magnum. No rifle in the world that allows you to get back on target faster than the R1 with ComforTech just the ticket for hunting game anywhere in the world. Pairing R1s ComforTech recoil dampening stock with Benellis ultra-reliable A.R.G.O. piston-driven system really takes the sting out of recoil. Imagine a .300 Winchester Magnum that feels like youre shooting a light .270 and youll understand what this hunting rifle from Benelli is all about. To put it more graphically, other high-powered hunting rifles kick about twice as hard. Auto-Regulating Gas-Operated (A.R.G.O.) On August 4, 1998 Benelli delivered five shotgun samples featuring the A.R.G.O. system to Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland. The guns were put through an intensive, grueling test for safety, function and performance. Subjecting them to mud, sand, baking heat and extreme cold, the guns beat out the competition to be chosen as the new U.S. Joint Service Combat Shotgun. Benellis patented Auto-Regulating Gas-Operated (A.R.G.O.) system has more than met the needs of the U.S. Marines M1014 semiautomatic an ultra-reliable, battle-proven shotgun. The A.R.G.O. Piston-Driven System is also the heart of the Benellis R1 and MR1 rifles, featuring simplicity, sturdiness and accuracy, all packaged in an ingenious design. Upon firing a Piston-Driven gun, single port, located just forward of the chamber, bleeds gases where they are hotter and cleaner. The results are less fouling and more reliable cycling. A short-stroke, self-cleaning piston and two tappet pistons push directly against the R1s bolt body, eliminating the need for connecting linkages or heavy action bars. Because the pistons push directly against the bolt, they move only -inch for complete and rapid cycling with minimum vibration. 3+1 capacity Overall Length: 46" Weight: 7.3 lbs

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
