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
Lithgow Arms EF88
The EF88 is an evolution of the F88 assault rifle that was licensed copy of the Austrian Steyr AUG rifle but improved by Australians into EF88 (Enhanced F88 Austeyr) to suit needs of their army. EF88 is manufactured in Lithgow arms factory, today operated by Thales Australia. The EF88 is a bullpup-configuration selective fire weapon, chambered for the 5.56x45mm NATO cartridge, short-stroke piston operated and firing from a closed bolt. New upgrades are: f gravity rearward, closer to the pistol grip. Improved buttstock design and cheek weld. Reshaped trigger guard to incorporate GLA integration. Enhanced and expanded STANAG 4694 (NATO) rails. Modified receiver to reduce mass, and shift centre of gravity rearward. Reduced barrel mass with fluting. Addition of a bolt catch release. Modified gas plug so that adjustments can be made with a spent 5.56 case. Cocking handle now folds into recess as desired. Extended ejection port by 4mm, and improved port covers. Modified hammer to prevent rifle stoppages on GLA firing. Refined buttplate. Ensured interoperability with a range of 5.56×45 ammunition.
