Interview of Blair Hagen, President of NFA by Travis Bader of Silvercore

I've seen some posts from a firearms retailer in Alberta social media and website and a couple private sellers online selling UTAS 556/308 AR10/AR15 straight pulls.

The rifle from what I'm reading is essentially an AR10/AR15 without a gas port in the upper and proprietary sized pivot/takedown pins to make it incompatible with normal AR10/AR15 but is otherwise it's an AR10/AR15.

Does anyone have any more information on this rifle? I can't find much online and there's no public FRT, I would imagine there's a private one that has not been released yet as it would be needed for importing the rifle from Turkey. Seems odd RCMP would've allowed this to pass as NR.

Gonna be hard to not buy something every paycheck with how cheap surplus guns are

As the title says, what are your opinions on buying one vs just a regular one as the prices for the SKS-D's are crazy.

Just picked up today after a multi-month wait and super excited to try her out! Review to come after load testing this weekend.

Cadex Seven Stars Pro, Stormtrooper White, MX1 muzzle brake, Kahles 8-64x56 scope with SPUHR QDP-6016 and Falcon Lite AES bipod.

I just put a down payment on a Henry supreme 5.56 at my local gun store. I was under the impression that these magazines have to be pinned to 5 but my gun store employee said it's a 10 round limit which makes no sense to me. Is there some sort of loophole that he knows about and I don't? Or was he bullshitting / mistaken? Pic for attention.

​

Regardless, what is the best magazine option for these things in Canada? All I'm going to be using it for is target shooting for now.

​

Thanks In advance!

Oh boy where do I start? It slam fired 1 round after 3 consecutive jams,2 out of battery detonations,my thumb got cut somewhere on the gun,near nonstop jams, countless failures to feed/extract,many of the failed fed rounds got smashed and were unusable, and my feelings are hurt because this gun looks really cool but isn’t reliable at all.

2/10

So I'm shopping for a leaver action in looking at a Smith and Weston 1854. But while I lean towards 357. Fomo is making me ask should I consider 44 mag more? I'm just curious what are you thoughts? 44 or 357 for leaver?

Edit/Update:

I ended up going for the S&W 1854 Sheath hunter in 357 thanks every one

Just curious if anyone has had any experience with this single shot 20 gauge. Just looking for a grouse gun.

Got my pal two weeks ago and after doing a lot of research for a semi auto 12g I landed between this or the SX4. But due to the sale going on and overall fit of the gun I decided on the beretta A300!

One of my buddies gave me a lot of shit for buying this since he feels it’s the “Ferrari of guns” but I thought for the price point it was worth the purchase.

Question is where the heck can I actually go and shoot this now? I live just north of Toronto and want to get some target practice in.

Hey guys, I see the target pistol people are doing, and I wanna move from Manitoba to B.C, not just for that, but also because I wanna go work in the northern mines there.

I currently have my PAL, and a CRFSC booked for this weekend, here in MB.

But I saw some comment from a guy in this sub who moved from MB to BC, and he said that either the BC target shooting association (the guys who give the exemption letter) or either the CFO, did not recognize his Manitoba CFSC + CRFSC results.

Is this true? Will I have to retake it there? The place I will be moving to in September is a small plane ride away from any city so I won't have many places to take it.

Any stores other than FOC (don’t have what I’m looking for/ got what I could already) having any Father’s Day sales this week? Wanna try to load up on some gear if there are any!

I am seeing mixed messaging on here and wanted to get some clarification. Would the handgun freeze be lifted if CCFR wins at the Supreme Court of Canada? I thought the handgun freeze was a law now, and so that would be unaffected if the OICs were overturned?

Therefore the only way to actually acquire handguns in the future would be if a new government came in and removed the law.

Please correct me wherever necessary here

Since we're getting some more goodies into the Canadian market, how likely do y'all think it would be to get something like this here?

​

For years I've been talking with my buddies how we need a 17 HMR semi auto rifle like this. First time I've really found one that fit my dreams 😅

Ended up buying the safe and taking it home today. First impressions are good. Seems solid and well enough put together. Weighs in at 335lbs. Light enough I was able to move it with a regular dolly fairly easy. There is a fair amount of modularity inside and it comes with 2 large lag bolts and anchors. There is also a backup key hole behind the keypad. Now all that's left to do is fill it up!

Does the BC CFO generally have a better reputation for service times than the Ontario CFO?

Does anyone know any gun stores where I can find a Father’s Day edition Henry .22 in BC or Western Alberta, any help is appreciated

Just needs a black buttstock now. Going for the 2 tone. I'm really torn between pistol grip or not though

I know that we got the regular 990 aftershock with the strap, but I haven’t seen the new SPX here.
