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

McMillan Tactical ALIAS CS5-T

he McMillan ALIAS CS5 is designed for stealth and concealment in urban settings. The bolt action CS5 is specifically designed as a compact and concealable precision tactical rifle. It is sold in suppressed configuration for military and law enforcement applications, but can be purchased by civilians in accordance with NFA rules. With the buttstock and suppressor detached, the CS5 is only 23.5" in overall length. It stuffs neatly into backpacks and other inconspicuous carriers, yet it delivers the stopping authority of a .308 projectile. Using McMillan’s match-grade 200 grain subsonic .308 Winchester ammunition, the CS5 will deliver 0.5 MOA performance or better in urban settings. With full power match grade ammunition, the CS5 will also deliver 0.5 MOA performance or better at typical 7.62 NATO distances. Hence, it is a dual purpose firearm serving subsonic as well as traditional sniper rifle roles. The infinitely adjustable buttstock will fit any operator, regardless of height, build, bulk of clothing, or shooting position. A tactile safety button can be operated without moving your trigger finger. Index marks allow repeatable stock adjustments and an Anschütz match trigger adjusts for weight and length of pull.
