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 Vanguard Synthetic Youth
The Weatherby Vanguard Synthetic Youth model is a bolt-action hunting rifle chambered in .223 Rem., .22-250 Rem., .243 Win., 7mm-08 Rem. and .308 Win. The Vanguard Synthetic Youth is a scaled-down version of the Vanguard Synthetic model. It features a barrel length of 20″ for an overall length of 38″ and total weight of 6.5 pounds. Like the standard Vanguard Synthetic, the Vanguard Synthetic Youth offers a composite stock and steel metalwork with a matte black finish. However, the buttstock includes an elongated spacer that allows the length of pull to be adjusted from 12.5″ to 13.625″. The Vanguard Synthetic Youth also includes a low density recoil pad. The Weatherby Vanguard Synthetic has a Monte Carlo composite stock and matte black metalwork. Otherwise the Vanguard models share a number of common characteristics including a fully adjustable trigger that is initially factory-tuned to 3.5 pounds. It has a fluted bolt body that reduces surface area and weight. The rifle has a cocking indicator that visually indicates whether the it’s uncocked or cocked. Along with a hinged floorplate, all Vanguard models have a cold hammer forged barrel, meaning a machine carefully pushed a mandrel through it to rifle the bore.
