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

The 17 Series of bolt action rifles helps heighten the fun of rimfire shooting while maintaining Savage standards of meticulous crafting with the balance of modern, high-tech methods and old-world hand craftsmanship. The Classic T has the built-in adjustability and safety of AccuTrigger, so there's no need for a gunsmith to modify it. AccuTrigger also provides a crisp, clean trigger pull, which enhances accuracy. Chambered in 17HMR, the Classic T features a matching high-luster blued steel bolt action, detachable box magazine and 24" carbon steel button-rifled barrel dual pillar-bedded into a wooden thumbhole stock with a satin walnut lacquer finish, wraparound checkering, swivel studs, and a contrasting black forend tip.
