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
F&D Defense XAR Folding Rifle
The F&D Defense XAR Invicta can be deployed in less than 5 seconds without the use of any tools and unfolded just as quickly by using a spent case to unlatch the hook and handle and fold the rifle where the barrel meets the upper. While the rifle is folded it is secured by a detent that prevents the rifle from unfolding while stored. The XAR is compact auto loading rifle, it does not require a tax-stamp, and has superior ballistics to AR pistols and SBRs while still being as or in some cases more compact. On top of the compact benefits of the XAR, it is also inherently easier to clean. Since the invention of the AR platform the “star chamber” has always presented a problem in the maintenance of the firearm. Because the rifle folds where the barrel and the upper meet this makes it possible to access this part of the rifle for easy maintenance. The XAR would not be possible without extremely innovative engineering, the rifle utilizes a tapered barrel extension and tapered receiver seat, these results in a rock solid lockup, accuracy and reliability, while the rugged construction of the XAR ensures it will last for generations. The folding mechanism is guaranteed for the life of the rifle, both the hook and handle are made from hardened, drop forged alloy steel, delivering not only the most innovative AR platform rifle on the planet but a military grade one at that. Finally what good is functionality at the expense of performance? The XAR maintains zero and delivers reliability and accuracy no matter how many times it is deployed and stowed. The XAR Invicta is chambered in 5.56 Nato/.223 Remington and comes with a Pelican Air 1525 hard case with high-density custom cut foam and 20 round magazine. STOCK: Magpul, Adjustable Folding Stock. SAFETY SELECTOR: AR15 type. OPTIC MOUNTING RAIL: MIL-STD 1913. OPERATION: Proprietary Direct Gas operated Semi-Automatic.
