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

DPMS GII Hunter Compact

The 16" GII Compact Hunter lives up to its name, combining big-game punch in a lightweight MSR platform. It's loaded with features but light enough to carry all day. The 16" lightweight stainless steel barrel is Teflon-coated and has a target crown, enhanced carbon fiber free float tube, Hogue grip and B5 Sopmod stock. The GII features forged upper/lower receivers, reduced mass/monolithic bolt carrier, reduced weight, lighter recoil, improved bolt, barrel extension, and beveled mag well. The biggest improvement to the GII may just be one of the smallest parts. The bolt carrier group houses an improved round extractor with dual ejectors. The duel ejector system reduces the ejector spring fatigue. Through duplicity, the likely hood of a failed ejection is significantly reduced.
