The Reeves Ranger Model 1875 is a relatively modern and extremely rugged battle rifle and/or DMR, depending on configuration and chambering.
This particular rifle is equipped with a sturdy adjustable precision rifle style stock and chambered in .277 Fury. The round was designed to achieve the muzzle velocity of older full powered "battle rifle" cartridges out of significantly shorter barrels than usual for the time it was originally developed.
The Legion Model 2300 Cruiser is an extremely rugged semi-automatic, gas-operated heavy shotgun based loosely on the KS-23 "special purpose carbine" and a shortened variant of the standard Legion M2300. It is chambered in the rare and powerful 23x75mmR cartridge and almost all Legion M2300 are smooth-bore weapons, unlike the KS-23. Thanks to its auto-regulating gas-operated action it can reliably chamber lower pressure rounds, making the pump-action operation of the guns like the KS-23 for all intents and purposes obsolete.
This particular shotgun features a shortened grip to make it sligthly less awkward when attached to a rifle using a variant of the quick-detach system from a Model GL 250FDM 30mm grenade launcher.
Made by Alpha Arms, a moderately sized independent firearms company who focuses on making affordable, reliable and most of all robust guns for what their marketing material fondly describes as "the new frontiers"... also known as the ever expanding edges of human colonized space.
