Hello chat! I had my license revoked two years ago because they thought maybe I wouldn’t be too smart with it based on association I guess. Any idea when would be a good time for me to reapply?

If you need the gun list, I'll provide it in 6-8 weeks.

Picked up this oriental beauty from a nice dude on gunpost. Met in the Cabela's lot and wow it was even more beautiful in person. Worked my ass off this summer to actually treat myself and am finally satisfied. After debt and bills and just surviving I finally got a nice possession. Guess I joined the SKS club finally.

It's a 71 Type 56 with a nice stock, heat guard, pic rail and a limbsaver pad. Can't wait to take it to the range tomorrow.

Looking to see if you know of any good gunsmiths around the GTA to get a Mossberg CBC 715T deactivated, I’d much rather hang it up than give it in for destruction.

Hey shooters, Am here looking for some recommendations for buying a SXS double barrel 28”. Would prefer something available with minimal engravings also not super expensive like some Browning. Appreciate any pictures with names to look for.

I was cleaning out some storage and found my trusty bayonet for my Glock. Thought it was hilarious back in the day and still think it’s funny. What ridiculous things does everyone else own?

Prior to moving here I never thought I’d like shotguns, but I tried it out for the first time and must say I’m impressed by the power the boomstick holds. The recoil wasnt too bad the first time, I held it wrong first shot, but once I readjusted I really enjoyed each shot. Obviously nothing beats the SKS for me, but I just wanted to appreciate the experience by keeping this (I’ve had this for 3 months now it’s starting to change colour)

Hey guys,

Sorry if this isn’t allowed, I hardly ever use Reddit so I’m not super familiar with the posting norms or whatever.

I was just curious if anyone knows anything about the possibility of any stores restocking any variant of the SKS, even the ATI stock one.

I know cabelas website had them up until maybe a month ago? I’m curious if they’ll ever restock.

I don’t own an SKS but I own a handful of rifles and shotguns. I’d like an SKS, but I genuinely don’t care that much about the condition or the numbers matching aspect of it, hence why I considered the Cabelas ati stock one.

Thanks a bunch and sorry again if this post isn’t formatted perfectly, been lurking this sub for months but never posted.

I was trying a new box ammo and put it under the spotter and the twist is fairly significant. That video is the worst of it and after filming other boxes the twist was not as bad. I was wondering if this is something I should be concerned about? The gun is accurate and I was hitting the mark at 600 yards after a few tries.

thanks!

EDIT: the barrel is a 1 in 10” twist rate, bullet is .30 06 Hornady ELD X 178 g

Temu ACOG adds 4x accuracy

Hypothetical for now, but I'm currently working with a local company and trying to gauge people's interest in a 3d printed stock for the chiappa M6 22/12g survival rifles to replace the factory molded polypropylene foam insert.

The new insert would have additional .22 storage similar to pictured and a bit more shallow so the end of the round can actually be grabbed instead of trying to pry it out with a finger nail. It would retain the same 12g and cleaning kit storage holes and likely be printed from some kind of TPU filament to give it a more tacky/grippy feel. Whether it still floats can't be determined without a prototype in hand but the weight difference would probably be negligible. The entire insert would be mostly hollow with a honeycomb pattern inside for rigidity under recoil.

Not sure how many people actually own these things and would be interested since they definitely don't have the same following as the little badger.

Hey, I bought an Adler rf 224 the other day (I am aware it has some mixed reviews, I just wanted a cheap 22 to shoot) I put maybe 20 rounds threw it, and it proceeded to have a bunch of issues, from not extracting the casing properly and then it started just refusing to feed a new round in. It seemed to me like the bolt wasn't coming back far enough to pickup the next round. I took it apart and found the bolt spring wasn't in its seat. I'm just curious what you guys think, to me it looks like the corner of the seat is knocked off , so there's nothing keeping the spring from going to the side. But I didn't find any debris or that chunk that I think is missing. Am I correct in guessing that the seat is broken? Or am I over thinking it? First picture is how I believe it should sit, second one was how I found it, 3rd is with the spring removed. Sorry if this sounds dumb lol, never taken a firearm apart/worked on one before.

Really excited about getting my first gun and been looking at different builds here. I had a question regarding the stowaway.

I’ve been seeing posts here and YouTube with the stowaway swapped with the 5 inch barrel. Someone here said his over all length was under 26 inches.

There was a comment that said because it’s manual action and fixed stock it would still be considered non restricted even though it’s under 26 inches.

By that logic could you take a renegade and install short stock and barrel? Being under 26 inches would it be considered non restricted as well?

I apologize for my confusion. The firearm rules are confusing.

As title. My new restricted rifle arrived in Canada two weeks ago and since then myself and a couple buddies all have not received approval for the transfer by the CFO. We all called and were told this can take several more weeks...

Is there anything that can be done about this? It seems this is only happening in BC as my friends from Alberta and Ontario all got their approval within 2-3 days.

Fyi: we are in BC...

Hey everyone! A couple friends and i are considering getting into reloading so we can shoot more, i’m designing some reloading trays and i’m curious to your opinions on this tray on if there’s anything you’d personally want different that would make staying organized easier in your opinion.

Tray size is 10-1/8” x 8-3/8”

Obligatory feets for scale

The Attorney General of Canada just informed the SCC it won't oppose the groups asking to join CCFR v. Canada as interveners, thereby allowing them to participate in the case.

This isn't a ruling on the merits, just the AGC declining to block their entry. Intervener status itself doesn't declare a side, but based on what these orgs publicly stand for, it's not hard to guess. To keep it simple, 11 of the 12 interveners are likely to side with the CCFR, against 1 which is explicitly on the government's side.

Hello everyone. I’ve been struggling to find an appropriate optic for my Ruger Scout .308. I do not like the traditional scout scope setup, it’s a bit awkward. I’ve tried an LPVO and it was just okay. Looking for opinions and advice from individuals who have used the Spectre or a Spectre clone. I’m open to other optic recommendations as well. Thanks.

K98k made by JP Sauer in 1943 and refurbished after the war by who knows what country (not the Russians though).

1954 Tula SKS.

1966 TIPO 2 M1 Garand with a 1944 dated springfield reciever, has mix of italian, springfield, and winchester parts.

Running out of storage space lol.

Right: Walther GSP 500, Pardini SP (both 22lr)

The Walther is for me, the others I picked up from a retiring shooter who moved to the UK and already have buyers for (they're right handed - I'm not).

Heads up, guys check your Hush Holsters SKS stock. Mine cracked from the buttstock to the grip after just a few uses and I’m still waiting on my wood replacement.

Unfortunately no markings on Tins

They are 7.62x39

Anyone able, even estimate, the round count in these?
