Rifles Descriptions

Bushmaster Max 1 Predator

Built as a result of numerous requests by the hunters who wanted a slightly shorter barrel and lighter swing weight in a carry rifle for predator hunting/calling, this 20� barreled version of the Varminter will deliver all the accuracy you�ve come to expect from a Bushmaster.

Springfield Armory M2 .22 Target Rifle

The bolt body was made in two main pieces, the rear one having a big lug on top that was the locking lug. The two pieces were hand-etched or scratched on the bottom with the serial number of the action, and done in such a manner that the number was split in the middle. The cocking piece had a wing safety that, over to the right, locked the bolt completely. In the central position, we thought it would permit easy removal of the firing pin and cocking piece from the bolt. Those parts did not come out easily, so we left them alone. All the way to the left, the safety wing showed the word “Ready.” The tail of the striker was a huge serrated disk that is supposed to be for hand cocking. Why anyone would need this we could not figure. It was possible to hand-cock the rifle, but this required great force on that disk. The top of the bolt had “M2” stamped just in front of the locking lug, and the top of the bolt lever had “NS,” “M2,” and “B2” in three rows. NS stands for Nickel Steel, M2 for the model, and B2 apparently for the series.
