I am interested in participating in a mappleseed event but I am having trouble finding how to register. I sent an email around 1 week ago but have yet to receive a response. Anyone know how to register or get it contact?

Newest addition to the family .

It’s an antique, but an extremely well maintained one. The Webley WG Army & Navy model.

Estimated date of production: 1892

6” barrel

Squared grip

Church steeple cylinder

Appears to be completely matching parts

Going to get it looked over by a gunsmith before I take it out, but I’m looking forward to taking it out for the first time.

I won a Martini Henry Mark IV at auction not long ago so I’m able to say I have the matching rifle and pistol for that time period together.

Next goal is a Swiss revolver (the M1882) to match my K31 rifle.

If anyone is looking for some excellent training courses happening this year, I highly recommend Phase Line Green Tactical. I have taken their tactical shotgun operators course, and it was incredible.

Tikka T3X CTR, 6.5 Creedmoor, 20” barrel

KRG X-ray chassis

Atlas cal bipod

MDT elite muzzle brake

Vortex Venom 5-25x

I bought a tikka ctr in 6.5PRC and a cadex short action AICS pattern chassis. Will the 300WSM / 6.5 PRC MDT Metal AICS Magazine - 7 RND work? MDT lists them as long action magazines but I called two gun stores and they said it should work fine. I was also told that if i get the standard 6.5creedmoor magazines without the binder plate I might have feeding issues.

I am having a hell of a time finding leggings with belt loops in Canada for my IPSC belt...

I have only found sites that are from the US, so I am looking for any recommendations for sites or stores in Canada that sell legging/yoga pant style pants with belt loops in them!

Thank you in advance!

TM22 and a Russian SKS purchased and a Tikka T3X Ace Target ordered and on the way. Will hold off a while before adding anything else. Thinking a 12 gauge and 357 lever action. Would love a 9mm, one can dream.

Hey guys! I just moved to kamloops and im looking for a decent range to join. I have access to a good spot on crown land during the off seasons, but that would become too busy during the summer.

Any indoor/outdoor ranges i should check out? Would also like to make some new friends since im new here.

I'm a bullpup fanboy. I want an X-95, an MDR, RFB, anything.

I got my licence just after the 2nd OiC in Dec 2024.

I've got the Canadian 3 gun of a 12ga pump, semi auto .22, and an SKS.

With the Makasi vs Carmel in the works, am I better off a) getting either of these 2 b) waiting for a new bullpup to come to the market, or c) hoping shit changes in the future?

Stumbled across this and was like, are they serious? Regardless of the spelling of defence or whatever, this could still be bought by a child? With no training or license.

Jay's Blades and Bullets gave a more recent initial review of The Brigade Makasi. When he first got it, it would not cycle, but he sent it away for Brigade Arms to fix, and they seemed to have provided him great customer service. He says it is a little less accurate than the Carmel with a little harsher recoil impulse but is lighter than an MCX with similar recoil. He did swap in a different single-stage trigger, so it is nice to have confirmation that works. He says the Strike Industries pistol grip that came with it is nice, and also like the slim, light handguard. He did not the FAL-style stock was heavy, so those wanting a lighter build may want to swap it for a less-hefty stock. Anyways, FYI. Thanks!

Just picked this up. Beretta 1301 mod 2. Now to start looking for what I should add to it.

​

I submitted my PAL and RPAL application in January 2025 and I'm still waiting for a decision.

For full transparency, I disclosed on my application that I received a conditional discharge for assault and robbery charges 16 years ago. The conditional discharge was completed over 15 years ago.

It's been 13 months with no update, so I contacted my MP for assistance, but they weren't able to help. I then emailed the Premier's Office, and shortly after, I received a call from the OPP. They advised that someone would reach out within a month.

That was 3 months ago, and I still haven't heard back. Every time I call for an update, I'm told the file is "on the area officer's desk" and that they'll email the officer.

Has anyone dealt with a similar delay involving older charges and a conditional discharge? What would you recommend as the next step to get a response or move the file forward?

Edit: im in ontario

What do you guys think of carrying a SS211 in my pack as a backup for backpacking camping to keep in the site.
In bear country would have bear spray of course, but an extra layer of protection at camp for predators or weirdos showing up in the night. Exploring my options

Dealing with Tenda (and generally buying a firearm online) for the first time and got this. Is it normal?

Picked up a burris fullfield 2-8x. Scope was clear and fine, holding a zero on my old gun. No issues.

I buy a new gun and give the gunsmith the scope with the rings on already to install it before they close. I take the gun to shoot and I see that it's clear on ONLY 4x. Adjusting the focus only makes either the image or reticle blurry.

It also does not hold a zero after 3-5 shots.

Did the gunsmith crush the tube?

I know this is paywalled, but the headline says enough. The article is thin on details. It states that the Ontario government filed an “intervention notice” with the Supreme Court on May 19 in the CCFR’s challenge of the ASF bans. Can anyone explain what this means and if it actually means that Ford is backing the CCFR like it sounds? I’m not a fan of the Star but couldn’t find anything else about this.

From the article:
“The office of Ontario Attorney General Doug Downey confirmed the Ontario government filed an intervention notice on May 19 but said "we have no further comment."”

Since the design is older than bill C-21 they should be able to make them AR mag compatible for the .223 and .308 versions (Pistol Mags). I do appreciate the effort, although execution can be lacking with them from time to time.

Both non-restricted 5.56 short-stroke gas piston semiauto accepting Stanag mags. Both taking orders with similar delivery dates. What is your choice and your reasons?

Edit: So to summarize what y'all are saying: - Makasi for AR aesthetics and compatibility, - Carmel for reliability, - Both if you hate money, - Neither because of potential bans.

I know, guys. The KSG and Adler suck big time haha.

Anyway, they’re fun to shoot. The Adler gave me a couple of ejection issues with cheap low-velocity ammo. High-velocity ammo works much better.

The KSG is just cool. The recoil is insane. I definitely need to learn how to control it better.

And I know: “buy once, cry once.”

Next up: Renegade MKII.

Only buying from now on, never selling.

So when I bought my Adler Arms 22, I didn't think it would be a lemon.
What 22 cal rifle would you say is the most fun to shoot?

This is the second time this happens (after 500 rounds and +115 rounds after that).

Because I re-screwed the picatinny rail screws and added blue loctite myself (which wasn't done from the factory), I've voided the warrant for this component according to Stoeger Canada. So basically I can't screw in my own loose screws without voiding warranty on the screws and threads.

I was gonna recommend all Beretta 1301 owners to loctite their thread when they buy their brand new shotgun, but I can't even properly recommend that.
