Rifles Descriptions

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

Calico M100

The M100 is a carbine that operates using the blowback principle. It has a unique high-capacity helical magazine mounted on top of the weapon, which it feeds from. The weapon ejects from the bottom, making it suitable for ambidextrous use. However, the sale of the weapons to civilians was made illegal following the introduction of the Federal Weapons ban; the ban has since been lifted and Calico can now produce the weapon in its original configuration.
