Attaching the barrel to the receiver using a barrel nut and a barrel with a shoulder is an alternative to action threads, which has been used in firearms such as the Sten gun and AR-15.

The gauge (in American English or more commonly referred to as bore in British English) of a firearm is a unit of measurement used to express the inner diameter (bore diameter) and other necessary parameters to define in general a smoothbore barrel (compare to caliber, which defines a barrel with rifling and its cartridge).
The scope base is the attachment interface on the rifle's receiver, onto which the scope rings or scope mount are fixed. Early telescopic sights almost all have the rings that are fastened directly into tapped screw holes on the receiver, hence having no additional scope base other than the receiver top itself.
The first prototype was essentially an M16E1/M16A1 rifle with 5 inches of the barrel removed resulting is a barrel 15 inches (381 mm) in length, so that it ended just forward of the front sight base. Because of the shorter barrel and no space to attach a bayonet, the bayonet mounting lugs removed. Due to the shortened barrel with the gas port ...
All of these cases were based on the .404 Jeffery with the rim reduced from .543 inches to fit the .532 inch bolt face for existing magnum rifles. [8] [7] The only known shotgun shells using rebated rims is the Roper repeating shotgun [9] and the 12 Gauge RAS12, specially made for the RAS-12 semi-automatic shotgun. [10]
For instance a professional shooter may be able to repeatably hit a given size target, i.e. a 100 mm ring, at 1000 meters (0.1 mil target difficulty) in low and predictable wind, while the same 100 mm target may be near impossible to hit in heavy and varying wind at 200 meters (0.5 mil target difficulty).
The maximum barrel length is 273 mm (11 in), the maximum sight radius is 342 mm (13 in), and the maximum weight is 1,814 g (4.0 lb). The overall length of the firearm can be no more than 406 mm (16 in) for pistols and 457 mm (18 in) for revolvers. Only open iron sights are permitted, and diopter sights are thus not permitted.
