They got a location right next to princess auto s.e, Is this just a pick up location or can I walk in and browse around. Anyone know?

As per title.

Just picked up a replacement Henry Lever Supreme for $1547 all in. Normally $1700 plus shipping/tax or so everywhere. It's a replacement for the one I had to give up on a while back due to an emergency.

Just thought I'd share.

Bought a new GSG Mauser 1911 22LR with the CCI Clean HV ammo (the polymer coated kind) and I think one magazine the very first worked well while the rest jammed every other shot either failure to extract or feed or both. By the end had to cycle the slide manually after every other shot to get another shot and then click nothing jam again. The casing would be stuck on the slide as it closed on it without ejecting fully or the next round would not feed properly and be stuck in some weird position. The extra magazines were bought separately but are compatible the Sig Sauer kind. Everything is metal. That was the very first time firing any gun and went through 100 rounds.

Any idea what's going wrong?

I'm thinking to try cleaning/oiling the new gun. It could be due to there being too much friction or the heavy slide not pushing back easily enough.

Maybe trying different ammunition copper plated and/or even higher velocity (current was 1200, maybe 1400 or 1600).

Reload magazines slower and load with the slide locked back and then manually let the slide close slowly not using the side switch to snap it back. I think the instructions say to reload with the slide locked back and to manually release it forward slowly. I'm not sure if that matters. Some magazines were loaded with the slide forward and wouldn't quite click in easily. I guess it's not like in the movies.

Anyway I wasn't sure if it was something wrong with the 1911 or something wrong that I did.

Luckily I was able to get more than one 22LR handgun so this is another reason why it's good to get two or three different ones in case of issues like this.

Saturday morning before I left to the range, I discovered that some junkie had liberated my 1301 from my truck. Weirdly enough they didnt take any of the ammo/gear I had on top of the case. Kept my cool during the whole process, made a report & gave em the serial number (obviously im never seeing it again). the cop that came by seemed to be a gun guy & was super chill, but at this point I was feeling absolutely gutted. After mourning my loss for a few hours, the wife gave me the green light to go out & replace it. Safe to say I am happy with the upgrade & im just glad to have a replacement. I got the black Gen 2 Mod 2, which was cheaper then my gen 1?? idk how that works but fuck it we ball.

A trip to the local princess Auto has been fruitful. Found this sassy double gun soft case for my 2 favorite guns. Was only $80!

I just added a Russian SKS to my collection.

Curious to see what you guys think my next addition should be.

Hey guys I've never been to Taccom, is it worth going?

Are there usually good deals there? Or special stuff that is hard to get anywhere else?

I have a chiappa model 101/ charles daly model 101 12 gauge shotgun wich i had unfortunately broken the stock on.

Was looking for some insight whether or not this could be repairable or where I can find the closest model for a replacement stock? I dont mind filing down something that is not an exact model but I am far from a wood worker

I have attached 5 photos of the butt stock for reference I was thinking of drilling it out to install some dowels and finding some commercial grade wood glue if I can not find a replacement butt stock?

Are all dies made in the US?
I’m in the market for several die sets and would rather get something made elsewhere but I don’t know of any dies made outside of the US?

I'd really like to get into putting checkering on handles. It appears that Canadian sources of checkering tools are hard to come by. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Don't link to a tool in the comments here. The subreddit bot tells me that isn't allowed....

Thanks in advance for any leads!

So I heard about this new website through r/canadaguns and I'm wondering if it is safe to use?

Hey folks, anyone able to help me with determining whether or not this is copper fouling or rust? The first time I shot this gun it rained on me, and it’s possible I didn’t get all the moisture off of it. I just cleaned the bore and ran an oiled patch through.

This Savage A22 At One followed me home a few days ago. I wanted a 22LR semi with adjustable stock for the family range days that I host. I think that this one has enough wood that most will be interested in using it. Some find more tactical looking guns less inviting.

Got it privately in new and unfired condition. Did a bit of paper punching (30 rounds) with it yesterday. Flawless cycling with Federal blue box bulk ammo.

Anybody know of a recommended break in procedure for Savage semi-autos?

Posting with approval from the Mod team
Post flaired as Misc, couldn't find something else suitable.

I am creating this post so you can make an informed decision before signing up to this website.

Since it was shared on Monday I have been looking in to the canadianfirearmsexchange website and its creator. Original post

I have found in probing the website that not only is it scattershot with poorly implemented or unfinished features, more concerningly I don't believe he has been upfront about how the site has been created or how he's handling and storing user data.

1) His admin routes are discoverable

The client bundle lists routes including:

• /admin/users
• /admin/listings
• /admin/etransfers <----- THIS**
• /admin/contact
• /admin/reports
• /admin/broadcast
• /admin/members/$userId

**He IS collecting users etransfer information, despite saying around the website that "We never collect or store credit card or banking details."

His Supabase project ID is exposed

• Supabase project ID: [removed] - Shown to CanadaGuns mods privately
• Numerous administrative route names and server-function identifiers are exposed too

2) Analytics runs before consent checks. Opt-out doesn't opt-out

The privacy policy says analytics cookies are used “with your consent,” and the banner offers “Essential only.” However, /~flock.js is inserted unconditionally into every page.

It records:

• Full page URL and path
• Referring page
• Browser user-agent
• Preferred language/locale
• A country estimate derived from your timezone
• Timestamp and session ID
• Tracks navigation
• Exposes window.Tinybird.trackEvent(...), allowing the site’s other code to submit custom analytics events.

The site has a second, consent-aware analytics implementation that checks cfe_cookie_consent_v1, but the separate Flock script does not perform that check. Choosing “Essential only” therefore does not to stop all analytics.

Knowingly, or unknowingly he is tracking his users and they can’t opt out of it,.
I wont attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity, but in this case, both are really bad for a guy claiming to have 30 years of IT experience and raises questions about how experienced the site’s creator actually is.

3) The site lacks any anti-clickjacking protections

The sampled responses did not include either:

• Content-Security-Policy: frame-ancestors none'
• X-Frame-Options

Meaning an attacker could potentially place the site inside an invisible or deceptive iframe and trick a signed-in member into clicking message, listing, or account controls.

4) Finally, and in some ways the most damning of all. The site has been made using Lovable, an AI service.

• The homepage’s Open Graph image contains a Lovable project identifier ending in .lovable.app.
• Image paths use Lovable’s /__l5e/assets-v1/… infrastructure.
• The JavaScript explicitly references:
• window.__lovableEvents
• .lovableproject.com
• .lovable.app
• .lovable.dev

Using Lovable does not itself make the site unsafe. The concern is whether someone competent has reviewed the generated application, backend authorization, privacy model, and operational controls.

I would argue it hasn't been human-reviewed, because of everything I outline above.

People are being asked to submit their real names, providing their location data and addresses (or having it scraped) and a wealth of metadata when they use this.

Not only that, submit an etransfer payment as part of the identification verification process.

And his "geo-protections" are amateurishly done by looking up your IP using IPAPI(dotcom).

For all intents and purposes, barring the actual firearm serial numbers - he is creating alarmingly invasive and private registry of all his users. He is handling their data badly, all while saying he isn't.

TLDR;
This website tracks you even when you opt out.
The site admin is collecting a wealth of information on you, but is saying he isn't (I just cant confirm the extent of the information being collected.)
The site is made with Lovable an AI service, and uses Tinybird(Flock.js), Supabase and a limited application of Cloudflare to handle your data.

This site is a bad actors dream, I would not recommend anyone submit their personal information to it.

Joking~

Just wanted to share some info to hopefully protect others.

Last week I was contacted by a number (902-751-40XX) with an offer to trade a lever rifle for an antique pistol I had on TownPost. After some discussion the deal morfed into two lever rifles for two antique status pistols. I requested proof of age (for the antiques) and he sent a pic of a health card. I sent my info for a PAL verification to which the fellow said he wouldn't bother. I figured I did my part, if he wants to risk prison that's on him.

The fellow seemed very enthusiastic that I ship right away. He was using a PO Box in Springhill NS and he wanted me to ship at the same time as him or before him which is something I don't typically do as a seller. Being a trade though, I told him to give me a pic of the box with my name/address and tracking and I would ship immediately. I was even outside the post office waiting for him to ship on his end. The whole tone of the deal at this point seemed OK but I was starting to get a voice in the back of my head telling me to look close at things.

He had excuses why it was taking time to ship and said his wife was doing it. After an hour I messaged him and said I was leaving to do errands and that I would ship after he sent tracking on his end. A picture of the tracking number finally came later in the afternoon with no picture of the box or label and when I checked it the number was months old. That sent my spidey senses off.

When confronted, he said his wife must have sent the wrong picture. He was adamant that he'd just spent $140 for shipping, which sounded about right, and was really wanted me to ship as he had already done so.

At this point I figured something was wrong but still wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt and said if he could provide the three things I asked for, I'd ship.

He assured me he would sort things out and get the correct information. I quickly realized that he was playing me. Providing me a picture of the shipping label hours after I asked. Saying he never actually shipped but wants to just not until I do. Even going so far as to eventually make a box of approximately the right size with a shipping label (that didn't match the first one he sent me) and saying again that he had shipped giving me a picture of tracking numbers that were obviously from a flat rate box (rifles don't fit in those).

By the time most of this was happening I'd already figured out te was trying to scam my pistols from me and I was just toying with him because he'd annoyed me. I wanted to share all this including his partially redacted information ((902-751-40XX) PO Box in Springhill NS B0M 1X0) in the hopes it saves someone else the annoyance of dealing with this idiot.

I think the thing that annoys me the most is that he got a lot of personal info from me for the PAL check and shipping.

/s (sarcasm on title)

Went to the range with my buddy to try out my fully cleaned SKS and was having a blast with it 10/10.

He wanted to get his rifle ready to get a bear starting sept 1st. So he invites me to take the first shot from his savage 110 in 300wsm. Tells me its a bit strong like the 308win Tikka i have. So i be prepared to shoot it.

HOLY FUCK B'Y !!

Like what on God's green earth is this tf!? Buddy died laughing and i was astonished by the power this cartridge has.

Guys who shoot this, dont knock on my door please. 😭

Brought it with me as a keepsake and as a goal to master it one day.

Bit of a long shot here, looking to see if anyone wants to drop into Chas today, I applied for my membership but havnt received it yet and would like to dial in my 338 today

Passed on buying one, ending up getting one as a birthday present. It's not perfect, but it honestly works quite well. I genuinely enjoyed using it.

Almost every gun I’ve ever painted I usually regretted it cause it looked like shit. But that being said I rushed it and didn’t do everything right. Im tossing up the idea of painting this nomad chassis for the 10/22 had Gemini help me out and honestly I love it but unsure if I can pull it off will use rustoleum ultra flat and vinyl stencils I can make with my cricut
