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

Remington 783 Walnut

The 783 is a push feed action with a 90 degree bolt throw and it is extremely smooth. The user adjustable, sheet steel, Cross-Fire trigger, with its Savage-like safety blade, breaks at a very crisp four pounds out of the box. A two-position safety is located at the right rear of the receiver. The steel detachable magazine holds four rounds and is held in place by a steel (not plastic) latch. Two-piece, Weaver style scope bases are factory installed atop the receiver, a nice extra. The rifle is entirely made in the USA and comes with a lifetime written warranty, like all current Remington firearms. The Remington 783 walnut in .270 Winchester caliber is extremely soft shooting. There is no magical reason why, it is just the rifle's weight. The test rifle weighs 7 pounds 10 ounces, empty, with the magazine installed. A sensible riflescope and rings should add about a pound. Add a leather cobra sling and a full magazine and the field ready weight will be around 9-1/4 pounds.
