How's the A7 compared to T3X? Specifically, the action and accuracy.

u/1955FL Apr 17 '26

Action is much smoother. The trigger is like glass. 3 lug bolt. It’s just a step above in every way except for aftermarket support.

Thank you for the reply, I'm blown away that you said MUCH smoother, damn. I'm genuinely trying to imagine how that is even possible! From what I read online, it's "tighter", would you agree?

. So for example on the T3X the bolt will very easily and rapidly glide without any pressure, simply tilting the rifle and gravity will move the bolt. Does your A7 behave that way too?

To be fair, I’ve only handled the tikka’s in a store so don’t have a ton of experience with them. I just remember when manually actuating the tikka it didn’t feel as smooth as the A7. But yes, the bolt on my Sako slides back when the gun is tilted the slightest bit - to the point that it can be kind of annoying if you didn’t mean for it to happen.

Dang. You already got the 1301 with the U.S. forend. Nice! I am waiting for Bass Pro to carry them to use my gift cards 🙃

Bought the forend off GunPost. But I see some retailers have the new mod2 versions in stock.

Only change I would make is something with a little more stopping power than the 6.5 creedmoor. 300WM, 7mm etc.

u/1955FL Apr 17 '26

Had the exact same gun in 300WM and traded it for this 6.5CM. It’ll take down any hoofed animal with a well placed shot and is much easier and pleasant to shoot than the 300WM.

I mean, you can kill a moose with a 22 if you want. But 6.5CM is really only appropriate for deer.

u/1955FL Apr 17 '26

6.5swede has been considered a great moose cartridge for decades and they have basically the same ballistics

Nice AR. just out of curiosity why didnt you rattlecan the stock?

u/1955FL Apr 17 '26

The stock that was on there before was also painted, just swapped furniture around some guns

u/IntroductionAny3929 Apr 17 '26

u/Kilo_Oscar_ Apr 17 '26

You should look at a laser stipple for that Glock. Blackbox customs does a fantastic job

u/1955FL Apr 17 '26

Blackbox did the slide work on this one.

u/Steelringin Apr 18 '26

Upvoting because Black Box Customs. Their work is top notch. I've been to their storefront several times too and their customer service there is second-to-none.

From Perroz Designs. Canadian guy. Also have one of his plate carriers and it’s great.

u/Dill_Pickle_Tears Apr 17 '26

Just need a .308 or 7.62 and you got a decent SHTF collection

Government: "how about 0"?

u/Steelringin Apr 18 '26

That's as good a selection as any that I've seen. Kudos!

Don’t give them any ideas lol

u/SkSMaN7 Apr 17 '26

Great choices!

u/SleazyGreasyCola Apr 17 '26

Cream of the crop right there though I prefer the Beretta 92 over the glock

u/1955FL Apr 17 '26

Have a 92a1 but if I could only keep one pistol it would be the Glock

u/90sStevenseagal Apr 19 '26

Literally can not argue with those picks 10/10 personally would go with a full size g17 gen 3 or 4

u/Prestigious-Step1264 Apr 17 '26

Didn't you send in/give up your AR15 like all other "good" Canadian PAL owners ?
