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

Uberti 1873 Sporting Rifle Special 342760

Description The bronze frame and the low power of the original .44 Henry rimfire cartridge limited the 1866 rifle\'s versatility. In 1873, continuing the process of improving the lever action design, Winchester introduced a new steel-framed rifle firing the more potent .44/40 center fire cartridge. The Model 1873 firmly established the lever action as an American standard-the weapon that truly "Won the West." Uberti offers several variances: the Carbine with 19" barrel; the 20" barrel Short Rifle; the Sporting Rifle with 24-1/4" barrel (specify round or half-octagon); and the Special Sporting Rifle, with select walnut pistol-grip stock. Available in .357, .44/40 and .45 Colt. Caliber: .357 Magnum., .44/40, .45 Colt  Barrel Length: 24-1/4" (Half- or Full-Octagon)  Total Length: 43.3"  Weight: 8.2 lbs.  Capacity: 13+1 (bbl 24-1/4" FOB)  Stock/Forend: Walnut (straight stock)  Finish: Frame - Case-hardened Barrel - Blued Buttplate - Blued Lever - Case-hardened
