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 SCW

The SCW also allows for quick and easy transition from vehicles and aircraft, thus providing much more firepower and range to aircrews and vehicle operators than handguns. Incorporating a new bolt carrier/buffer system, the SCW has been engineered to provide the same dependable reliability as the Colt M4 in a much more compact design. Additional benefits incorporated into the SCW include a reduction in recoil and an increase in controllability. Equipped with its unique holster/sling system*, the Colt SCW allows the user to easily transition from any other weapon. Designed specifically for vehicle & aircraft crews, joint forces, special operations forces, and reconnaissance units, the Colt SCW provides for increased mobility and firepower on the modern battlefield, but with longer range capabilities than handgun caliber systems. Commonality of ammunition with other weapons in the support formation not only simplifies logistical relief, but also provides for ease of resupply by any supporting unit while conducting operations. With all of these design enhancements and augmentations, this weapon has earned its place among Colt weapons and the right to its name “Colt SCW”.
