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
Royal Small Arms Factory Martini-Henry Mark I
The Martini Henry Mk1 Service rifle can be described as having three phases, as it was not offically adopted into service for a full three years after its initial sealing as it went through a continual development process, and was not officially designated a Mk1 until 20 October 1871. In tests from Jan 1871-October1872 the Martini Henry rifle was used purely for trials, with a .450” “long” boxer cartridge the features found on the MHR Mk1 (first) pattern are now very rare indeed. These include, safety catch and no knocks form to the barrel. As a result of experiments made by Eley with a bottle shaped round the service rifle was to have the bottle shaped 577/450” round which gave greater velocity.
