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
Christensen Arms CA-15 G2 SS CA10291-113522
Christensen Arms' CA-15 G2 series of modern sporting rifles is feature-rich, utilizing CA's trademark carbon fiber in critical components to reduce weight and increase structural integrity. This is particularly relevant to AR15-type rifles such as these, which tend to be front-heavy due to the use of long, heavy, metal handguards. Barrel mass is also a consideration; in a traditional AR15-type rifle, the shooter must balance their desired muzzle velocity with the weight that will be imparted by a longer, heavy-contour steel barrel. The CA-15 series, in general, alleviates this issue by offering models with a composite barrel (button-rifled, 416R stainless steel, wrapped in Aerograde carbon fiber). The result is a target-contour barrel that weighs considerably less than shorter, all-steel barrels of the same (or even thinner) contour. These features yield a light-weight, high-precision semi-automatic rifle which is, in the case of the G2 series, available from the factory chambered in .223 Wylde, enabling the safe use of 5.56x45mm NATO and .223 Remington ammunition. All G2 rifles have a sub-MOA guarantee.
