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

Springfield Armory Saint

The next generation of personal-defense rifles, Springfield Armory's Saint Semiautomatic Tactical Rifle achieves a higher level of uncompromising reliability, accuracy and overall performance. The 16" chromoly-vanadium Melonite-finished barrel, chambered in .223 Rem./5.56 NATO with 1:8 rate-of-twist rifling, increases your mark-hitting accuracy. Built with a direct-impingement midlength gas system for smooth shooting, less recoil and shot-after-shot reliability. Proprietary, enhanced micropolished, nickel-boron-coated, GI-style trigger group provides a smoother and more consistent trigger pull. The type-III, hard-anodized, corrosion-resistant, 7075-T6 aluminum upper and lower receiver maximize strength while remaining lightweight. The M4 feed ramps on the upper and barrel extension ensure even more reliability, especially with M855 ammunition. Bravo Company black polymer pistol grip, buttstock and handguard add optimal control and support, and the BCM handguard has a heat metal shield to protect against barrel heat. Equipped with Springfield Armory's low-profile, flip-up, dual-aperture rear sight for electronic-free target acquisition. Available with a 30-round or 10-round Magpul PMAG® magazine.
