Buy recommendations OverUnder question

8 Upvotes

Hey fellow gun owners,

I’m looking for my first shotgun and I’m leaning towards an over-under. I’ll be using it for clay bashing.

Since I’m left-handed, I’ve found that over-unders are a great start for me, rather than semi-autos.

I don’t hunt, so this will be purely for clay shooting, target practice at the range, and other activities.

I’d love to know your recommendations for my first over-under. Ideally, I’m looking to spend between $1,000 and $1,500, either used or new.

I went to my closest Ramakko’s and saw a used Browning Citori with a 30-inch barrel. It’s in pretty good condition and they’re selling it for around $1,500 CAD plus taxes.

What do you think? Is that a good price? Also, when can I find private ads so I can compare different options?

Since this is my first gun, I don’t want to go over budget. Maybe I’ll stick with semi-autos or a different gauge in the future, but I’d love to hear your thoughts.

Thanks!

Application / Regulation advice Long Range Shooting Options Ontario

6 Upvotes

I've been really wanting to get into long range precision shooting recently but have only been able to find a few ways to shoot over 600 meters. Either at CFB Borden up to 1k yards or MilCun up to 600m both through the Ontario Rifle Association.

I'm wondering if it might be possible to drive down to Michigan or New York or other nearby states and utilize their ranges, does anyone have experience doing this? I'm quite new to shooting and not sure what the laws are like in terms of taking firearms to and from the states.

Also, I've seen some people saying to use crown land but I don't think I'd feel comfortable shooting off range.

Would love to hear any ideas anyone has for long range shooting options in or near Ontario, I'm completely fine with driving 3+ hours.

Misc Is this a good crown land spot?

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I've never shot on crownland and I have been looking at scouting some spots. I found this one and I wanted to see if it would be a spot to start practicing long range shooting. I'd be firing parallel to the roads and in the direction of the arrow. There are no dwellings within at least 20km of this spot. What are your thoughts?

fyi this is around north bay ontario

Misc Has anyone dealt with purchasing firearms online or in person from Sporteque?

2 Upvotes

So I found a really good deal on a gun that Sporteque has listed up on their site. I would have to do shipping since I'm in Ontario and their store is in Quebec.

I'm just concerned cuz I looked at their Google reviews online and they're averaging at just 4/5 stars currently. There's quite a few negative reviews.

I'm wondering if anyone has dealt with this retailer recently. Thanks.

I'm applying for my PAL. Just got proper photos taken. Now I am reading that I need to affix a sticker to the back of the photo with my name, my guarantor's name, and their signature. Do I seriously need to get a sticker made and then stick in on the back? Or can I just glue/tape it?

Label Instructions

  1. Cut the photo to fit the size requirements.
  2. Print your name and your guarantor's name on the sticker.
  3. Have your guarantor sign it and complete the Photo Guarantor section of your application.

Fix my gun Marlin 89C

Hey people, I have a marlin 89C .22 inherited from a passed away relative that I really would like to keep.

I’m just wondering since I know nothing about gunsmithing and repair, it doesn’t eject spend casings. Would it even be worth taking to a gunsmith?

Just refinished my dad’s old cooey trainer rifle. Its a sweet little rig for sure. One thing me and my dad have been wanting to do is mount a scope on it. Only problem is, it has no current way to do so.

If any of you know some different ways of mounting a scope on the model 82 please let me know.

Any questions you have about refinishing feel free to ask!

Derya 9mm just arrived. For the money, I'm not expecting miracles. Just hoping to have a fun plinker in a calibre that's not .22. I have a TM22 and the stock on this one seems to be exactly the same. I really like that adjustability. I'm becoming a fan of peep sights and i'm looking forward to experimenting with these. I really like the look of the sharp pin front sight. If the weather holds I'll be able to put some rounds through it on the weekend.

My shadow system MR920 trigger won’t reset and it is not about the spring position. I pretty sure is the trigger bar off spec. The answer is do a trigger bar swap to OEM glock Gen4 bar.

Edit:

I want to carry on my appendix, as for reason for a holster? Besides being a member at a range with holster certification, its important to excersice our civil liberties.

Buy recommendations KRYK Mosin Chassis

7 Upvotes

Recently won a 91/30 barreled action on auction and thinking of doing a few sacrilegious things to it. (Already have my Hun 91/30 as my heirloom rifle). New bolt, timney trigger, bad aces scope mount. Looking at options for the stock I came across the KYRK, has any one seen one this side of the border and/or ordered one from the US directly? If so I'd like to know the ins and outs. Alternatively, at the for what they're going for, would it be more cost effective to get a gunsmith and/or carpenter to build me a custom stock that'd allow it to use Archangel mags? I'd like to use Archangel mags but think the stock looks like fried sh*t
