NEW FOR 2017 - Multipurpose 308 Winchester semi-automatic rifle. Gas-piston design. 18" hammer-forged barrel. Detachable box magazine fed. Picatinny rail scope bases. Lightweight alloy receiver and composite stock with 6 pound 10 oz overall weight. The BAR MK 3 DBM customize the BAR design to offer shooters a detachable box magazine with a magazine well instead of the standard hinged floor plate design. The DBM model also comes with QD swivel cups (QD sling swivels included), 1913 Picatinny rail scope bases, and an 18" hammer-forged barrel (an optimal length for a multipurpose rifle chambered in the venerable 308 Winchester cartridge). The best part is that you get all of this in a package that weighs in just a hair over 61 pounds. Browning rifles consistently produce the most accurate shot groups in their class. This is due in large part to the quality of their barrels. The BAR is built around a hammer-forged barrel made in a thoroughly controlled and tested process. The BAR relies on a gas piston design to operate its lightweight action. The gas piston design mitigates shooter-perceived recoil and reduces excessive carbon residue that other modern gas-impingement designs vent into the moving parts of the action. Like most modern sporting rifles, the BAR utilizes a multi-lug rotary bolt - a component that allows for a lightweight alloy receiver. The BAR MK 3 feels and handles like the purpose-built hunting rifle it is - lightweight, quick to shoulder and point. Add in the benefits of a well-designed semi-automatic, and you get quick follow-up shots and less perceived recoil than with your standard bolt-action hunting rifles. RECEIVER: Aircraft-grade alloy. Matte black finish. BARREL: Matted blued finish. Hammer-forged. Fluted ACTION: Gas-operated autoloader. Multi-lug rotary bolt. 10-round detachable box magazine. Composite trigger guard and floorplate. Crossbolt safety. STOCK: Black composite. Black overmolded gripping panels. Shim adjustable for cast on/off and drop at comb. FEATURES: Front sling swivel stud and two QD sling swivel cups installed (QD sling swivels included).
