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

Weatherby Mark V Accumark AMM333WR8B

The Accumark features a specially designed hand-laminated, raised comb, monte carlo composite stock with matte gel coat finish and spiderweb accents. Mark V action is free floated. Three rings of steel surrounding the case-head. Fluted bolt with three gas ports. Nine locking lugs and a short 54 degree bolt lift. Bolt sleeve completely enshrouds rear of action. Forged and machined steel receiver. Integral recoil lug provides superior strength and structural integrity. Cocking indicator visually indicates whether the rifle is cocked or un-cocked. 26", cold hammer-forged, heavy contoured #3, 410 stainless steel free floated barrel featuring a special longitudinal fluting system. The flutes increase barrel surface to help dissipate heat, while a .705" diameter muzzle with recessed field crown is concentrically perfect to assure pinpoint accuracy. All rifles are drilled and tapped for scope. All Weatherby rifles are available with the special Accubrake option (standard on .30-378, .338-378, .378, .416 and .460 models). By adding an Accubrake to your rifle you can significantly reduce felt recoil up to 53 percent. That's nearly 10 percent more effective than their nearest competitor. Available for four different barrel diameters, with checkered thread protector, for a near perfect brake-to-barrel contour match. Because the crown is located at the end of the barrel, not the brake, the lands are protected, preserving accuracy. As the bullet exits the barrel it passes through the br
