Gun Descriptions

The Sako A7 has unique features that are not available in any other Sako or Tikka rifles: The special steel action is made in two sizes, S and M, and to comply with available calibers, the receiver is drilled and tapped for bases, the bolt has three locking lugs in front and a 70-degree angle for fast cycling. Furthermore, it has a polymer magazine with integral steel feeding lips to allow top loading without removing the magazine.

The Ruger Precision Rifle has a proprietary Pre-Fit barrel system. Pre-chambered "Drop-In Ready" barrels can be purchased, and the correct headspace is set using a proprietary barrel nut design. The barrel is threaded to fit the Ruger action threads. This way, a competent gunsmith can fit a new barrel exchange a worn barrel with a new one by only using an AR-15 barrel wrench and proper headspace gauges. This eliminates the need for machining by the gunsmith as with traditional barrel mounting solutions. The RPR is compatible with AR-style handgrips, buttstocks and some types of handguards. The trigger is proprietary, but aftermarket triggers are available.
