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

Volquartsen IF-5 VCF‑HMR‑H

The IF-5 is the total package. It is what every shooter is looking for - lightweight, great balance and most of all incredible accuracy. The I-Fluting increases surface area, reduces weight and adds rigidity to the barrel more than any other fluting design we offer. This means maximum heat dissipation and unbelievable accuracy all from a barrel that is 12 oz lighter than a bull barrel .
