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
Robinson Armament M96 Recon Carbine
The Robinson M96 is a 5.56 x 45mm NATO, semi-automatic rifle based on the Stoner 63 Modular Weapon System. Made by the Robinson Armament Co., the M96 can be arranged in a variety configurations from a standard rifle with a 20' barrel, to a carbine with a 16" barrel or even a top-fed carbine with a 17.5" barrel. M96 is a gas operated semiautomatic sporting rifle. Introduced in 1999, the Robinson M96 uses a modular design allowing for alterations in caliber, barrel length and other aspects of configuration. Adjustable post front and flip-up peep rear sights with an 11 inch Picatinny rail on the upper receiver, 3-vent muzzle brake, hand adjustable gas system, STANAG magazine well, ribbed forearm and smooth pistol grip stock. With a black nylon sling, manual and one 30 round polymer magazine. This rifle and gas system was actually developed by Alex Robinson in 2003/04 in response to a Government solicitation for the SCAR rifle. It is a combination of the M16 bolt that combines the reliability of the AK47 rifle style gas-piston with a fully adjustable gas regulator similar to the FN-FAL rifle. The original Robinson Armament Company was only in business for a very short time, so the original rifles are extremely rare with a very limited production. The M96 has been offered in a 20" barrel rifle version (the "Expeditionary Rifle"), a 17.5" barreled carbine (no special name), a 16" barreled carbine (the "Recon Carbine"), and a 17.5" barreled top-feed carbine ("Bren" configuration).
