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

Daniel Defense M4A1 02-088-10043-047

The Daniel Defense M4A1 features the M4A1 Rail Interface System (RIS) II, used by US Special Operations Command (SOCOM) for the SOPMOD II Weapons System since 2005. This highly maneuverable rifle is built around a 14.5 Cold Hammer Forged M4 Profile barrel with a permanently attached pinned-and-welded Daniel Defense Flash Suppressor to reduce flash signature. The carbine-length gas system provides smooth and reliable cycling under any conditions. The M4A1 RIS II handguard has room for multiple accessories, including optics and lights, and soft Santoprene rail panels protect your hands from heat up to 300 F. The rifle is finished off with the rugged and comfortable Daniel Defense Buttstock and Pistol grip and is coated with a protective Cerakote finish in  DANIEL DEFENSE DEEP WOODS.
