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
Colt LE6940AE-3G
With a projected production period of late 2014, the Colt LE6940AE-3G included design enhancements to the lower and upper receiver specifically geared to 3-Gun shooting. Its single stage match trigger is crisper than the standard mil-spec trigger, allowing for greater speed and accuracy in a competition setting. The modifications to the rails and handguard make the enhanced 6940 more comfortable for 3-Gun competitors. Where the LE6940 is designed with traditional fixed rails on the monolithic upper, the enhanced 6940AE-3G’s monolithic upper is fully modular with a smooth handguard, giving users the freedom to locate rails in their desired location. There were also rail sections forward of the Colt folding-adjustable front sight for additional customization options, such as extended reach to help control the gun during competition.
