I had been following crossmags for a long time as Cross kept teasing us with .308 coupler mags for competition shooting. They also teased 7.62x39 coupler magazines.

I went into the backrooms to find my old gear and was reminiscing about days before the great banning. And I saw them... my crossmags...

I went to google Cross Industries and it seems that all of their socials are dead. I can't find their website, and everyone is out of stock of their magazines. I'm not surprised. When all of the MSRs are banned, you lose a business built entirely on being a legal supply of more than 5-rounds.

Does anyone know if they got bought out? Who owns their IP? I would love to see the tech go to MDT. I imagine they can do something great with it.

I was so excited for 7.62x39 magazines...

Came across this old .22 ammo in a buddies collection, neither of us know anything about it.

Maybe this is a ploy to keep Poly off their back for offering anything Semi-auto haha

Anyone have any experience with the federation sa-2? I recently purchased one and can’t find anything online at all. I know it is made as a benelli m2 clone and that’s basically all i can find. I put 3 boxes of shells through it so far and it cycled and ejected flawlessly. I did find that the recoil is a bit more than i expected but i guess for a cheap, lightweight inertia gun i shouldnt expect anything different. Looking for others opinions on long term reliability? Thanks

Families and survivors of the Dawson College shooting are calling on Prime Minister Mark Carney’s government to strengthen firearms laws, saying key gun-control measures promised in the wake of mass shootings remain unfinished nearly 20 years after the deadly attack.

70c8fc80In an open letter released Wednesday, the advocacy group Dawson Families for Gun Control urged the federal government to take action on what it describes as three outstanding priorities: completing the ban on assault-style firearms, closing loopholes involving large-capacity magazines and strengthening oversight of exemptions to Canada’s handgun freeze.

The letter comes ahead of the 20th anniversary of the Sept. 13, 2006 shooting at Montreal’s Dawson College, when a gunman opened fire with legally acquired firearms, killing 18-year-old Anastasia De Sousa and wounding 19 others.

“Since that terrible day, survivors and families of Anastasia and those injured or traumatized have urged successive governments to fix the laws that enabled a troubled and angry young man to legally obtain firearms and accessories capable of causing mass casualties,” the letter states.

While acknowledging progress, including the prohibition of many assault-style firearms and the federal handgun freeze, the families argue significant gaps remain.

They say many prohibited firearms are still in civilian hands because of an ongoing amnesty period tied to the federal buyback program. The group is also calling for regulations to ban magazines that can be modified to hold more rounds than legally permitted and wants stricter national standards governing exemptions for Olympic and Paralympic sport shooters.

The families say Ottawa should move forward on those measures without further consultation.

The letter is signed by relatives of victims and survivors connected to the Dawson College shooting.

Louise Hevey De Sousa, whose daughter Anastasia was killed in the attack, said families have been waiting too long for governments to act.

“I think action really needs to be taken now. It’s enough,” she told Global News. “It’s been 20 years since Dawson and even longer since Polytechnique, so I don’t think it’s really acceptable.”

Hevey De Sousa also pointed to Montreal’s recent incident of gun violence this past June as evidence that stronger measures are needed.

In a statement to Global News, a spokesperson for Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree said the upcoming anniversary is “a solemn reminder of the devastating consequences of gun violence and of our shared responsibility to keep communities safe.”

The federal government said it remains committed to its firearm-control agenda, including the Assault-Style Firearms Compensation Program.

According to the minister’s office, more than 142,000 assault-style firearms have been declared, collected or destroyed through the program to date.

The government also highlighted broader efforts to combat gun violence, including investments in border security, additional Canada Border Services Agency and RCMP personnel, and funding aimed at disrupting organized crime networks involved in firearms trafficking.

“Altogether, these measures reflect our comprehensive approach: removing dangerous firearms from communities, strengthening our borders, supporting law enforcement, and disrupting the organized criminal networks that fuel gun violence,” the statement said.

Dawson College will hold a commemorative ceremony Friday to mark the 20th anniversary of the shooting.

On Sunday, the anniversary of the attack, members of Anastasia De Sousa’s family will gather at her gravesite, continuing a tradition they have observed each year since her death to honour the life she never had the chance to complete.

New model 92 trapper takedown from winchester in 44 mag I cant stop looking at it. Gonna be my new bush gun when I go hiking. Looking fir peep sights but cant seem to find any that fit with a tang saftey any leads?

Got some left over 451 barrel blank, shotgun adapter it is, super easy lathe project that only takes couple hours. Grouping is surprisingly decent for its 1inch of rifling lol.

I picked up a Henry Supreme not long ago and now I’m wondering if I can get 10 round magazines since it’s a lever action, not a semi auto. Are 10rd pmags legal and where would I look for them?

Edit:
Follow-up question: what’s the legality of just removing the pin of the 5/10 mag it came with?

Edit edit: got it. Don’t remove the pin

Looking to one day add a lever .22 to the collection.
In your thoughts and experiences, which is the best lever .22? Which is the nicest to shoot/your favourite? Any known issues with any of these? I’d like something that will hopefully last a long time as a plinker and target shooter, and accurate enough to be fun.

Thank you in advance!

Prototype with PLA, looking to print with PETG for durability

Makes the gun much lighter on the frontend

Would be great if I can also print a buttstock

Factory moonclips are 29.99 so I decided to print some

Cheap enough to be one-off instead of recycling, a quarter each I think?

Also looking to fit TR410

Premier Susan Holt appears to be kicking the tires on the idea as her government contemplates next moves in the trade war ---- STORY: https://tj.news/new-brunswick/could-n-b-exclude-americans-from-its-moose-and-fishing-draws

Anyone know if Sigmaco still ships orders? Some comments on instagram are a bit concerning.

I got my PAL ~20 years ago and only now decided to upgrade to get the Restricted license. I finished the Restricted course and had a question regarding section G of the application. My instructor told me I could likely just leave Section G 20. A and C blank. I’m not sure if that’s the correct advice.

A) have you passed the Canadian Forearms Safety Course? Yes, No, year, proof.

B) have you been certified by the Chief Forearms Officer…? Yes, No, proof

Forgive my ignorance, but can I leave these blank and submit my new R application? Or will it be declined?

I don’t have any documentation for either of these.

Thanks for any feedback that can help me sorry this out.

Needed to get a baseline zero on some things and snuck out before dinner for some shots.

The Enfield came with a modified mount that is slightly canted downward and needed a scope in 1” diameter with more elevation adjustment than the Leupold 3-9 American Marksman (60MOA). The Crossfire HD 2-7 fit the bill with 90MOA.

I was able to get a baseline at 25yards in the short time window I had for today on the Supreme and Enfield. I’ll walk out a target further next time but happy that things are in the ballpark. Yeah the Enfield is dumb but it shoots well.

Security guy said it looked like a replica bullet. It literally was a rifle slug with a hole drilled sideways through it and a key ring on it.

Woke crap. No wonder they're all scared. They don't know anything about bullets...

Good people,

I was hoping the internet could point me in the right direction.
I’m new to the hobby, I’d like something I can modify, maybe do some simple comps with.
Something that even if it’s flawed it’s something I can figure out myself to learn some more about the gun or just send it in for a claim and won’t be screwed.

I live in Vancouver so shops that might help me out in person would be amazing as well

Ngl Ik PCC are banned now but something 9mm would also be highly appreciated other then 22

Has anyone purchased a Hunter gun vault recently, looking at the GS-2420? Seem like a quality option and made in Canada but their Facebook hasn't been updated in 6 years and the last post I could find on here in from 9 years ago. The only website that isn't the manufacture looks out of date 2021 and has russian script in the contact form. Wondering if they're still making these safes at all before trying to get a quote out of them for shipping.

Hey there,

Anyone out there do all the mods to add the TNA magwell adapter to their SKS, only for your magazine to pop out without pressing the release button when cycling the bolt? I took the magwell off along with the magazine to try to see if itd fall out, and pressing down with my thumb on the most forward part of the top of the magazine makes it pop out too. Id be inclined to believe that the magwell is the issue itself, but figured id see what others are saying first before trying to return it or getting a new one?

Looking for something similar to the ar15 magwedge coupler but reversed so that it's straight instead of weird and crooked. Would be using with those 10rd XCR mags in 7.62x39

Anyone know a product like this? I 3d print too so if there's a file out there can work with that too.

I’ve had my ruger for a while but I’m a little disappointed with the current scope on it. I’m looking for recommendations for a replacement, I’m leaning more towards an lpvo, specifically the vortex venom 1-6x24. What other recommendations do you all have? My budget is around $600, I could probably go a bit more if there’s something good.

I keep saying im done but........

So I'm considering this build - I need ya'alls suggestions for furniture that can make this build better, more aesthetic. Budget is not really a problem. Parts list so far:

1. Cross Mags/STANAG (I like the straight mag look)
2. Magpul Bipod MLOK
3. Magpul Grip / BCM Grip - Black
4. BCM angled foregrip
5. Knight Armament Folding Micro Iron Sights
6. Arken EP8
7. Magpul Rail Covers
8. Considering a spearhead self-timing muzzle break as well

Thanks!
