Thumbnail

12 Upvotes

I bought a wood stock sks with a TNA max adapter installed. Guy added an ATI stock which he said he sanded so the gun and adapter would fit. But lo and behold it doesn’t fit at all. Any advice or tutorials on how much to sand and or dremel out to make it fit? Love the wood stock but the length of pull is too short for me.

Misc P90/22

6 Upvotes

Ok so found something kinda wild. They now have chassis kits for the 10/22 that turns it into a P90.

Now, we know bullpup conversions are illegal, but is the P90 a bullpup? It’s a genuine question I have as it’s really kinda a unique design on its own. Also, I thought maybe we got some kind of exception given we are talking rimfire and it already has other exemptions for it.

What do we think?

Press the button while pulling empty magazine locks action open like the previous iteration, however now after inserting a new magazine you can push the button backward to release the bolt, and actually chamber a fresh round. Need some more tweaking on the ergonomics though

Canada import from US from third party

6 Upvotes

Anybody went through the US -> Canada import process? Curious who you went with and how it went, if anyone can share any firsthand experience. How did you arrange payment? From my understanding you can't pay the seller directly but have to go through an exporter and have them pay the seller instead?

Misc Any retailers taking pre-orders of OIC prohibited models, in anticipation of a positive court case in November?

0 Upvotes

I'm hoping the court case goes our way later this year, and if it does... There's going to be a sudden rush & huge backlog of orders getting placed.

I'd literally give my left testicle for a Ruger 9mm carbine, and would be happy to prepay or pay a deposit, to be able to pick it up immediately if (when... hopefully) the OIC's are struck down.

I haven't seen anything like this online - any of you fine people heard of any retailers doing this?

Buy recommendations .308

8 Upvotes

Looking for advice/input on what to get or build.

I want a hybrid rifle chambered in .308. One that is good for backpacking/hunting/target shooting. I don’t want it to be only a bench rifle, for that I will get a Tikka T3X Ace Target or TAC A1 most likely in 6.5 Creedmor.

So far I’m trying to choose between

Sig Cross 16”
MRA Maverick 12.5” or 16”
Tikka CTR w/ MDT HNT26 Chassis
Tikka CTR w/ MDT The Tactical-LSS Gen3 Kit
Tikka CTR w/ MDT The Worker-LSS Gen3 Kit
Tikka components

They all have their pros/cons and tradeoffs.

Preferably I would like a shorter barrel.

I’d really appreciate your input/advice and thank you in advance for your responses!

Misc ORA- match recognition?

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone,
I’m looking into getting into ORA Service Rifle and I’m curious about what the competitive side looks like.
For those who have competed in ORA Service Rifle matches, what do winners actually receive for placing (especially provincial-level events)?
Do they give out:
medals?
certificates?
anything else?
I’m not expecting cash prizes or anything, I’m just curious what the recognition/reward system is like compared to other shooting competitions.
Also, if anyone has competed in Service Rifle before, I’d appreciate any advice

also if there’s any other clubs or something i should look into to get into competitive shooting let me know

Buy recommendations Ruger American Gen II vs. Tikka t3x

10 Upvotes

I'm looking for my first bolt action, and I know this sounds like a no brainer; the Tikka is objectively better on action and accuracy.

However, I'm going to be doing mostly range and I'm drawn to the Ruger; it's tastefully bubba'd from the factory and has all the aeathstics I love, plus functional stock risers, plus a pic-rail to boot.

Action feel is so important to me but the cost savings on the Ruger are very noticeable and at its price, the Tikka is already much higher I'll be spending hundreds more on a scope and basic mods.

I guess what I'm asking is; will the Ruger fall short the more experienced I get and cause me to just get a Tikka anyway; or is the Ruger respectable enough to keep for years to come and put down good groupings at distance on range?

I'm looking at 6.5CM btw. Thanks!

Feets / Collection / My build Valtro PM-5 Shotgun

Hi fellas!

This is my original Italian Valtro PM-5 box magazine fed 12 gauge pump shotgun.

It was initially produced by Valtro in the 80s, and Brixia continued production after Valtro went down.

The magazine takes 7 shells, and are quite expensive to source.

It was used by various police and military units, and French Navy is still keeping them in service.

Overall, I love the pistol grip and fixed stock, and the fact that it is a reliable mag-fed shotgun. The 14” barrel makes it quite maneuverable and gives it a cool look. Some people do not like the length of pull though, which I don’t mind.

Note: Trigger lock was temporarily removed for pictures; it is on it at all times.

Now with more feeties!

Bought my first gun, a Tikka t3x in 308. Many people I've talked to said your recommendations were on point. Now to look into scopes!

Only problem is there is some dents on the barrel. I know things get banged up and the first scratch it always the hardest to accept, but it sucks getting it pre banged up. What would you do in this situation? It took long enough to get mailed here (form Firearms outlet) and I really like the grain on the stock and I'd hate it if I had to return, wait forever, and get back a new good barrel with lesser stock

Fix my gun SKS barrel pitting question

Is this safe to shoot long term? I dont want the pitting to lead to a larger failure down the line. I’d like to use this rifle long term as it is my go to semi right now.

Also, would normal cleaning and oiling prevent it from worsening?

Thanks!

Fix my gun Need help finding SKS parts

7 Upvotes

Hello all, I should probably start with a little while ago I put a NCstar gas tube setup on there and it’s been a nightmare ever since (probably what I deserve for trying to bubba the thing) any time I fire it either doesn’t have enough strength to push the bolt back enough to full eject the round or the bolt stays and it needs a little tap to open and eject the casing. I’ve swapped gas tube with a buddies rifle and it cycles as it should, so I’m pretty confident from the small test and the couple reviews I’ve read lately that the ncstar tube is junk and I’m curious if anyone here knows a good solid place to find a new replacement gas tube or if anyone here is in Alberta and has one they can part with, thanks!

Shooting Southwestern Ontario target shooting spots

9 Upvotes

Hi all,

Got the bad news from the OPP and relevant authorities that target shooting at Fingal Wildlife Management Area is not permitted, even though hunting is. Makes sense, right?

Anywho, I’m appealing to the kindness of target-shooting friends here (we’re not strangers really, we’re all comrades-in-arms just trying to enjoy our hobby despite the government unjustly suspecting us of nefarious motives) who happen to reside within an hour’s drive of the London area. Do you happen to own/know somebody who owns private property where it’s permissible to target shoot? I’d really rather not drop over 400 clams at my local range next month for a membership, I just wanna shoot my flintlock and my .22, with or without supervision. I have my own targets and am willing to travel up to an hour from city limits.

A man should be able to enjoy his hobbies but unfortunately the powers that be just don’t like fun. Thanks for reading and happy shooting!

Competitions/matches IPSC - Rifle Discipline

6 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

I am looking to get into practical/competitive shooting but as you know recent bans made it impossible to get a handgun. Is the rifle discipline of IPSC active in Ontario?

Can I join the black badge program with a semi-auto? If not, is it possible to rent a handgun solely for IPSC shooting? Are there ranges/clubs that allow practical shooting with a rifle?

I am located in GTA and unfortunately couldn’t find a lot of information online. I can travel so doesn’t have to be in the GTA.
