Nice choice, love mine. Check out chisel and Midwest industries as well for aftermarket stuff, I like the cheek riser setup on either of those more than RPP.

Yeah I already ordered the RPP stock/riser and quiver

u/jmz-jmz May 06 '26

They make nice stuff too, I’m sure you’ll love it. Timney trigger is a nice upgrade too if the trigger flop bothers you

Do you know which store has RPP gear in stock? I wanted to get one last week but they were all sold out.

u/MannerCurrent7912 May 07 '26

I looked everywhere also. Baron Gun Works had 1 in stock. RDSC said they had stocks on order coming in a up to a month or two.

Midwest industries 

Just a small warning, MI does not handle warranty to Canada - my kit was missing one screw, they could only ship to the USA.

I ordered a full MI handguard set and stock to space cowboy my silver one 😃

Love my 357 S&W. Worth the “buy once cry once” over the cheaper options

Dude I threw a timney trigger in mine from CSC and it's such a good upgrade. It gets rid of the trigger flop!

So it’s not just my trigger that flops…?? Why is that? Did you install it yourself? I wouldn’t even know where to start?

If you own guns in Canada you're also part paralegal, watchmaker, metallurgist, engineer, refinisher and machinist.

You're in the right place for help. Amazon torque driver set and mallet and pin-punch set. Blue Loc-Tite. Learn by doing.

Honestly this is so legit lol, I've learned so much from it. I can hear the dremel calling for bubba

Guns are the one product whose manufacturers encourage disassembly and FAFO during the warranty period. Most firearms instruction booklets are 80% "Don't shoot anybody or yourself", 19% parts list and 1% detailed maintenance instructions.

The flop threw me off too! I think it's because the factory trigger sear doesn't have springs where the timney one does! It was a little scary at first to take it apart but the youtube walk throughs and instructions got me there lol

great choice. changing the loading gate on mine made it significantly more enjoyable

I’ve heard nothing but good things about smith and wesson guns from both canadians and americans. Apparently they are basically the toyota of the gun world, one that you can always rely on for their decently priced (at least in the US lmao) but durable firearms with consistent qc

Beauty taste my friend!

u/Even-Somewhere-9554 May 07 '26

Thinking about getting a same one but I put a deposit of Makasi

u/Bambam4040 May 07 '26

Nice gun. But I got to ask why only one flip flop on?

2

u/Berns35703 May 07 '26

Beauty. I’ve got the walnut 1854 and put almost 1k rounds through that beauty since February. Have fun!

u/bermpan May 07 '26

I've been going back and forth between crying over buying this, or the Marlin 336 Dark Series. Tough decision to be made. Congrats on the beauty rifle
