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

Mossberg 801 Plinkster 37005

Here's a bolt action single shot .22LR rifle designed specifically for young shooters as an ideal starter gun. The Half Pint's 12 1/4" length of pull, 16" barrel, and 4 pound weight make for a rifle that mounts easily, even for the smallest of shooters. And all the necessary features are there - a grooved receiver for the easy mounting of a scope when the time comes; a free floating barrel and fully adjustable iron sights. As your young shooter becomes more familiar with the gun and more experienced, the removable magazine plug can be replaced with an optional 10-shot magazine, easily converting the Half Pint into a repeater.
