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 Vortek StrikerFire R67-5644621

Traditionsâ„¢ has again revolutionized the Vortek StrikerFire®! With a re-designed recoil-reducing buttstock and buttpad shooters will enjoy increased accuracy and all skill levels will feel comfortable shooting this rifle. Traditionsâ„¢ is a game changer for you and your muzzleloader season! The Vortek StrikerFire® comes with the StrikerFire System . To cock the gun, simply slide the striker button forward until it locks and the rifle is cocked. The recessed de-cocking buttons allows for quick and quiet de-cocking of the firearm and the gun is also equipped with an automatic de-cocking mechanism - when the gun is opened, it is automatically de-cocked. By eliminating the external hammer, this allows for faster locktime, the ability to mount your scope closer to the bore and allows the gun to operate with less weight. This rifle comes equipped with the TAC2â„¢ Trigger System - a two stage competition-style trigger set at 2 pounds. This trigger is an upgrade from triggers on other muzzleloaders currently on the market.  The StrikerFire also has some of the same features you have come to depend on like the 1-piece Accelerator Breech Plugâ„¢, Dual Safety System, and Speed Load System. With features meant to get you out to 200+ yards, you'll never worry about accuracy with this rifle! This gun also comes with the Quick-Tâ„¢ Ramrod Handle. It functions like a palm saver and t-handle all in one, making it easier and more comfortable to load your rifle. The Quick-Tâ„¢ Ramrod Handle has a t-shaped piece with brass jag that can screw in, allowing your ramrod to function like a work or cleaning rod. The Quick-Tâ„¢ Ramrod Handle sits on your ramrod when it is in the storage position on your rifle. Weighing in at only 6.25 pounds (non-scoped), the Vortek StrikerFire® is lighter than some 26" guns currently on the market! This gun comes with a 3-9x40 Rangefinding Realtree Edge Scope mounted and boresighted. It does not come with sights. We invite you to join the hammerless revolution and pick up the Vortek StrikerFire® to feel the difference!
