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

Traditions 1860 Army

Recognized as the mainstay of the Union Army, the 1860 was ordered to fill the ranks. The .44 caliber revolver was as powerful as it was popular. After the Civil War, 1860 could long be found in Army posts and across the frontier. This revolver has an 8 inches round blued barrel, color-case hardened steel frame, brass guard, and a walnut grip. It is available in .44 caliber and has hammer/blade sights. This revolver is 13-3/4 inches length and weighs 2.75 lb.
