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 Arms 6 Improved
The Remington Improved Model 6 is the second improvement of the famous Remington Model 6. The Model 6 was made from 1901 to 1903, then from 1903-1929 the new Model Improved was made and finally from 1929-1933 the Improved Model 6 was made. Approximately 498,000 of the Model 6 rifles were made (all three variations combined). The Remington Improved Model 6 was designed by Remington's C.C. Loomis. It was a single shot take down rolling block rifle with a straight walnut stock. The No. 6 was the economy version of the rolling block action. The rolling block action was patented in 1863 by a Remington employee named Leonard Geiger. Remington was making rolling block rifles in the 19th and in first third of the 20th century. The Improved Model 6 has a 24" barrel and a receiver milled from a solid piece of steel, longer fore-end and coil springs instead of leaf springs. The new safety feature was that the rifle can be loaded only at the half-cock position.
