Some rifles have been made so that they can quickly and easily be separated into 2 parts for easier transportation or storage. They are made so that you need only turn one big bolt head to separate the 2 pieces of the gun, usually separating the barrel from the rest of the gun. This bolt head is usually big and knurled so it is easy to loosen and tighten. This process is called takedown, and the rifle that has this built into it is called a takedown model.
