1 Bushmaster (Gwinn Firearms) Pistol 5.56MM. These pistols were made in the early to mid seventies, these models were made for the Air Force. This semi-auto pistol sports a 16 ¼” barrel with a screw-on flash suppressor. It features a post type front sight (swivels with pistol grip); rear V-notch (3-position 40 degrees either side of the center of axis), charging handle ,top-eject, steel-aluminum and synthetic construction, and a 30-round magazine. This pistol is in excellent condition with an excellent bore. Weight: 5 lbs. 14 oz.
There are three known variants to the Bushmaster Armpistol. The pistol shown here is one of the early Gwinn Firearms units that featured a somewhat conventional safety above the trigger assembly - this variant was produced in the early 70's and much more rare than the later ones which have the safety in the trigger guard
A rare and true historical piece! 1970s era 5.56mm caliber true bullpup pistol.
From the Bushmaster Armpistol Manual -
The major difference between the Bushmaster and other pistols is that the pistol grip is forward of the magazine. A unique design feature, the patented swivel grip, allows the Bushmaster to be fired by both left and right-handed shooters.
The Bushmaster is fired by firmly gripping the pistol grip, grasping the receiver, and twisting the pistol so that while the pistol grip is vertical, the receiver twists 40 degrees right or left. For right handed shooters the receiver rests on the right forearm, with the ejection port to the right. For the left-handed shooter, the opposite applies.
In order to swivel the Bushmaster, firmly grasp the pistol grip in one hand and the receiver in the other and "twist" the receiver in the desired direction.
In this position, the Bushmaster is now ready to fire.
The Bushmaster weapons system was based on the function and operating principles of the patented IMP aircrew survival weapon designed at the United States Air Force Armament Laboratory at Eglin Air Force Base. Subsequent design changes integrated the battle proven characteristics of the U. S. military M16 and the unexcelled gas system of the Russian military AK-47; thus attaining the simplicity and functionability of the current Bushmaster production.
By consistently and methodically applying these principles, it has been possible to make a high percentage of all individual parts in the various weapons comprising the Bushmaster system identical and thus interchangeable both among our various models and with the Colt M16.
The overall concept of the U. S. M16 and Soviet AK-47 have been in military use for many years and both countries continue to produce these proven designs in large quantities. Along with these concepts, the utilization of all practicable new developments in the field of weapons technology, improved materials and the empl.bymenVs of the most advanced machine tools and special equipment insures that the shooter has at his disposal a weapon of .. sophisticated design and technology.
