Misc Moving to USA - Options on Handguns

27 Upvotes

We are moving to the USA and I have filed a atf form 6 to bring most of my firearms. They accepted most but two hand guns and the AR and one Winchester SXP of all things! What are my options I obviously don’t want to turn them in. Is there a way to sell those handguns in Canada before we go?

Announcement Pilot Project: Video Comments for Approved Users

17 Upvotes

Hello everyone!

This is just a quick post to let you know that we've recently enabled Approved Users to comment videos within posts. If you are an approved user, you would have received a mod mail from us, so if you didn't receive a mod mail saying you're an approved user at any point in time, well, then you're not an approved user and you won't be able to partake in this pilot.

If you like to be an approved user/take part in this pilot, please send us a mod mail and we will do our checks to make sure you'd be a good fit to have a little more freedom.

We're doing 2 phases. 1st phase we're going to trial it for 2 weeks, until July 17th. If successful and it doesn't cause problems, then we'll move on to phase 2.

Phase 2, we'll roll out the feature to everyone, then closely monitor it for another 2 weeks until July 31st. If the full 4 weeks produce very little to no problems, then we will make this feature permanent for everyone.

Our point of enabling video comments is to just standardize media options with Reddit as a whole, as many subs have it enabled and I think video comments would be helpful for the "fix my gun" type posts.

Thanks everyone!

Before people start calling it a piece of shit, yeah i know but i bought it back in the days for 900$ and it served me well before losing it in a boating accident...

I bought spare piston rods just in case considering they aren't expensive and honestly, appart the gas blowing in my hand, i never had issues with it except the bulky square rear end that isn't the prettiest

It shot everything i fed it no issues, maybe i was one of the lucky ones

I wanted to share my build if someone had one and disliked the original design as much as i did, just a little wind of inspiration for other WK180-C owners

So after getting my PAL not too long ago, I was lucky enough to score a decent storage setup at a reasonable price for my babies. And the safe is finally full and im feeling very proud of what is the beginning of my collection.

All im missing now is to get a pump action 12 GA (Mossberg 500 or Remington 870) and a bolt action .308 (Savage 110, Howa 1500 or Remington 700) ill be golden.

Although its not perfect and after seeing some of your collections, mine feels very budget tier. A true gun cabinet for the poors. I still really wanted to share with those who might appreciate the start of a beginners collection.

1st pic is the whole setup

2nd pic is the rifle bay

3rd pic is the ammo storage

4th pic in the comments is the outside of the locker

Misc Just wondering if hypothetically

1 Upvotes

So hypothetically someone were to have a lower or full wx-mcr with a ruined upper if they'd be looking to get rid of it by chance. I got a MS- mcr because I heard the metals were better in the receiver. Now I'm sad I didn't realize what I missed out on. So hypothetically of course if someone had a ruined or deactivated mxmcr I don't know where much else to look

Hey, I'm looking for scope recommendations. I want something that'll be good for a beginner long range shooter but that's also good for hunting. All my scopes previously have just had the normal crosshairs.

Shooting Long Range in Québec?

15 Upvotes

Is there a website/club/forum that keeps a list of where I can shoot and practice long range in Quebec, Montreal region? Anything than I can shoot prone or from a bench.

I am near Montreal and I always prefer going north. My actual shooting range is about 200 meters long, maximum, and you shoot from a bench/table. I’d like to know if there’s somewhere 300m and maybe over until I found myself a personal spot.

I’m beginning this year and want to experience my first time in a range since I don’t know any nearby crownland or someone that could be my mentor.

Bonus question: I’ve setup my rifle pretty much like it should be, but my friend who got me into LR is away for a couple of months. Should I see a gunsmith to check with my ergonomics with the rifle? Or should I find a “scope guy” and go to a range/field with him?

Feel free to ask me any questions you have about. I’ll update and edit the post if necessary. Thanks for reading!

I need to move to Toronto next month but I really don't want to spend 1 week to drive. Planning to sell my car and take the airplane there. I can ship my long guns to my friends there but how can I ship my pistols to Toronto? Is it possible or I have to drive there myself?

Misc I over-designed an optic mount for the SKS and now I feel dumb

Thumbnail
gallery
85 Upvotes

I really love the SKS rifle, but I also really wish it had a better optic mount solution. I feel the ones on the market currently all have some sort of major drawback, like height being too high from bore, too far forward, or require destruction of the receiver cover latch pin (the latter system also just kinda looking like a solution slapped on top of the core problem, instead of solving it).

So I started sketching / designing a system that I thought was ideal, with the following criteria
-low height over bore
-witness with rear sight at 100m (without optic)
-non-destructive
-allow close optic (eg. full scope)
-easy access to chamber
-hold zero

Turns out this was actually pretty involved. The original receiver cover acts as rear rails for the bolt carrier; it's not just a dust cover. So I designed a mimic of those rails (same latch attachment as the original, so non-destructive), which would interface with a recoil spring latch (attaching to the existing recoil spring). The new cover would attach to the rear sight assembly (requiring the removal of the rear sight leaf, but still non-destructive), and fasten down using pressure from the button (via recoil spring tension). All good - ready to prototype! I've just received quotes from a couple of machine houses and... I think my ideal solution is just wildly out of reasonable cost. The quotes for prototyping made my eyes water. Ain't no one in the country gonna be willing to pay what it'll cost to manufacture. Lesson learned.

Misc Crusader Arms Backland Hunter Comp - Crusader getting better?

14 Upvotes

I saw someone posted the other day that they bought the new Comp model. I frankly love the look of it, minus the M4 style buffer tube. Not much info on the rifle as it just hit the shelves this week.

Decided to order one from Bullseye to play around with while waiting for the Mk15 to show up.

I have heard all the horror stories on Crusader, and ghosting guys and bad support, issues with the rifles.

I am hoping maybe they have gotten their act together and am willing to be a guinea pig on it.

I was pleasantly surprised to get an extremely fast email response from them. I emailed them yesterday evening asking about parts compatibility, and received a reply first thing this morning, on a holiday too. I was impressed by the speed. I had inquired about parts compatibility with the "shall not be named" other platform. They said the barrels, gas block, handguard, grip, bolt (not BCG), trigger, and i believe dust cover are all compatible. I was pleasantly surprised as there should be lots of possible upgrades available then.

Honestly, I really hope this is a sign they've turned the page on the new model. While they've clearly screwed customers in the past, I gave to credit them for trying to get us modern sporting and hunting rifles to Canadians. My first impression of their customer support was great, far better than the horror stories of the past.

Wish me luck with it. I took the chance and will be the next guinea pig for anyone looking at one. I still plan on getting a Mk15 as well, but this will be fun to play with in the time being.

Happy Canada Day!

Chassis is coming along. Something something tortoise and the hare... Waiting on my hardwood parts to get CNC'd (buttstock, pistol grip, lower and upper handguard) so I can hand finish them. Shown here is my main steel body for my chassis, a 3D printed prototype of my folding 6-position skeletonized "buffer tube" (attaches to picatinny rears like on the upcoming Makasi) and a 3D printed prototype of an upcoming tacticool handguard design. Hoping to pre-install AK side rails to the chassis so users can use QD AK side rails.

All in all been a busy as hell summer, even though I've been kinda quiet... I'm taking a much needed vacation for a few weeks then coming back swinging this summer. Not shown is an upcoming SKS muzzle brake, AK-style side rail mount and all of my Homesteader stuff. Also gonna start making classic "cheese grater" handguards 'cause apparently nobody else in Canada does anymore lol.

I've been hoarding cardboard boxes.
