FUNCTIONS AND FEATURES
The REC7 is a self-loading, gas piston-operated, magazine-fed, shoulder fired
rifle that includes a flash hider. User selected accessories may be mounted on
Mil-Std 1913 rail segments on all four quadrants of the handguard. The chamber
and bore are chrome plated. The gas block serves as a housing for the gas plug
and offers additional mounting space for accessories on the Mil-Std 1913 rail.
BREAK–IN PROCEDURE
Because individual barrels, powder, primer and bullet combinations vary widely
and because shooters have strongly held personal opinions on the subject,
Barrett does not offer a specific procedure for barrel break-in. Barrett does
recognize that a clean barrel shoots better. Barrett also recommends that you do
not overheat your barrel, especially your new barrel. Experience has shown that
the bore becomes less prone to fouling over time and that accuracy may
increase as this occurs.
