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

Savage Arms MSR 15 Recon LRP 22931

 The Savage SR15 Recon LRP is a AR15-style, direct-impingement "modern sporting rifle" with a bit of a twist. It has, unlike a standard AR, an 18-inch barrel in order to optimize velocities and accuracy. It also features a "softer-shooting" mid-length adjustable gas system, a two-stage trigger, and a free-float handguard. This rifle is chambered in 224 Valkyrie, a .22 caliber rimless bottlenecked rifle cartridge developed by Federal Premium in 2017 in order to rival the performance of the .22 Nosler. The 224 Valkyrie is capable of achieving velocities approaching 3,500 FPS and generating muzzle energy in excess of 1,500 ft/lb. Proponents claim significant ballistic advantages over the standard 5.56 NATO. Specifications: Hand:Right Hand Type of Barrel:Heavy Barrel Description:Direct Impingement
