Rifles Descriptions
Burnside Carbine 5th Model FLA-3550
This is very nice example of one of the percussion breechloading carbines that helped the Federal Cavalry to eventually achieve superiority over their Confederate counterparts during the American Civil War. The Burnside Carbine was the brainchild of future Union General and Rhode Island Governor Ambrose Burnside. An avid shooter and promoter of shooting sports, after the Civil War Burnside would go on to be a founding member of the National Rifle Association, as well as the organization’s first president.
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
