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

RPA International Hunter Thumbhole 22-250REM24"

The heart of the rifle is the RPA 4-lug Quadlite action. The GP hunter is available in a left or right handed configuration. One piece bolt incorporating a cocked 'tell tale'. Passive ejector for reliable operation. Drilled to accept scope rails. Short firing pin travel provides for very fast lock time (less than 1.5 milliseconds). Firing pin is a single piece of high tensile steel hardened and tempered. Heavy duty recoil plate has locator spigot to allow barrel removal and re-fitting without compromising the position of the plate to the bedding. Modern shape and materials, finished in satin black, high wear and corrosion resistant finish. High tensile steels and solid construction make it the safest rifle available. RPA triggers used in the Hunter series have: Adjustable finger pull. A nominal pull weight of 0.5 Kg. Hardened and burnished pivots to reduce friction. Positive first stage. Smooth operation. All models have a two position safety catch. The barrel muzzle is threaded 17mm x 1mm to allow for the easy fitting of a muzzle brake or suppressor.
