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

Marlin 1891

Marlin Model: 1891 Serial No. 65240 Caliber: .22 rimfire Barrel Length: 24” FFL Status: Antique These rifles were manufactured 1891 to 1897. This is considered a first variation and was made with the side loading port and short magazine. Approximately 5,000 of these manufactured in 1891 only. Features full round barrel, half magazine, sporting sights, blued finish, takedown, and walnut stocks. In addition, the barrel and frame on this rifle exhibit numerous British proof marks. Barrel and tube are a pleasing mix of blue and plum with some light age freckling and razor sharp legends. The frame retains 20-30% of the brilliant high polish factory blue, balance patina with age freckling. Traces of case colors on hammer. Very good to excellent original walnut stock with rifle buttplate, never refinished. Very good bore. Fine action. You can travel dozens of gun shows before you’ll see one of these scarce side-loader models. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this firearm will be given to Ducks Unlimited Canada.
