We still out here shootin boys!

Good evening,

I was on the IPSC website and noticed a “future” program. I sent an email to the coordinator as mentioned on the website, but I am just curious as to what it might entail?

Im a relatively low-income college student and i’ve wanted to get involved with IPSC for sometime, but I can’t afford a $300/month membership nor travel as frequently.

Cheers!

Curious to know how the TR-410 has performed for those of you that own it? I've heard some say that too much gas gets blown into their face after each shot, others say its not too bad. I might cop one but not too sure.

Back in June, my friends and I went to a Winnipeg range to shoot skeet. Foolishly we left ammo and range bags on the table outside the club house. When we returned 3 boxes of ammo were gone. We spoke to the range people and was given a box of ammo of different brand.

Also the range allowed people to work down range of an empty stall while we were shooting in the next stall.

Don't think I will return to that range.

I did have to refinish the SKS stock because I accidentally damaged the factory phenolic resin varnish while trying to steam out a dent...😭

Will be reloading 7.5x55 in the future cuz it's basically a 308 Win dressed in Sennechutteli with a little bit of more powder.

Hey guys:

Over the last few weeks, we've seen a large amount of people banned by Reddit Admins, always citing this same sitewide rule; Rule 7... One of our well known vendors, u/SpectreBallistics, was recently banned, but thankfully their appeal was granted. Unfortunately, one of our mods, u/Cre_AK47 was permanently banned, with their appeal also being denied, so we need to have a Subreddit discussion on how we can mitigate Admin actions because countless people are having their accounts wiped clean because of their comments and posts that are not rule breaking content as per their Reddit's own TOS, are somehow finding themselves being flagged for being in violation of Rule 7...

These are not set in stone, we are open to feedback, but these are the most realistic options the mod team sees as a way to attempt to curve this ban wave. We are also open to any alternative suggestions.

Proposed solutions:

1. We ramp up Automod aggressively to either warn, or actively remove content that may be picked up by AI Reddit Admins.
2. We try adding a mandatory experimental disclaimer to comments to posts and comments when people make mention of prices, posting links to gun stores, mentioning vendors. We have no idea if this would work, and frankly, it would be a PITA to code into Automod, but it might be worth trying stating explicitly that "This comment/post is NOT A TRANSACTION, SALE OR AN OFFER" in case it is in fact an AI that looks at these "reports".
3. All links are banned, except media (YouTube, Reddit, News sites, etc.). Since Reddit admins will literally ban you for linking to a gun safe on a furniture catalogue website, any links are basically not safe if the word "gun" and "link" mix...
4. We do nothing and people continue to get banned left, right and centre since Reddit admins love operating on ambiguity and outright lies on external links.

We really don't want to have to do any of this, but admins inaction are forcing us to do something because of their inaction and lack of clarity, never mind saying posting links to legal vendors is good to go, while at the same time, people are getting banned, permanently for doing just that... Also, please stay on topic. We know this is very upsetting, but something needs to change, and it seems it isn't going to be Admin enforcement actions that's going to be changing anytime soon.

I might have missed the train on that one, but I just learned that Dlask Arms Corp. Closed around 6 months ago.

I red that it was because the owner was retiring, but I can't help it, it feels to me that the political climate might have helped it a bit...

They were my Go to business for high end Ruger custom 10/22 rifles. I built 3 so far using their components.

I saw there was only a few receivers left in stock where they now sell all their remaining inventory. Couldn't help myself and I grabbed one.

I wish the owner a nice retirement, even though I am sad of seeing another firearm store closing amidst this weird era.

Note: picture of two of my previous 10/22 builds. All lasers.

In a follow up of my other post I got a sweet deal on a Bergara premier canyon in .308. I got a vortex Razor LHT 3x15x42. I’m just a bit confused what scope rings to get. Any suggestions ?

Sooo since we've all seen some mixed reviews and some concerning QC issues with the R Makasi's that have rolled in to Canada, I decided to reach out to Brigade MFG to see if they were aware of the issues and if the NR rifles would have any of these issues corrected.

Here's their response

Let me start by saying I'm very new to the world of "modular" rifles. I didn't have my PAL before the bans and all I've got are some WW2 wooden rifles. However, I'm very excited by the possibility of a more modern 556.

That said, I think the buttstock on the makasi looks really ugly, and I'm not the biggest fan of a lot of the options I've seen in my admittedly limited research. I'd love to put a more FAL type wooden stock on the gun, but I'm not seeing anything like that online.

Does anyone know how one might go about getting that kind of furniture on the rifle? Or any kind of stuff which might let the rifle lean more asthetically in the direction of the FAL? Like I said, I'm not at all versed in the world of modifying my guns. Cheers!

THIS IS A BLADE AND THEREFORE NOT A GUN PART. Please remove if I no longer have the freedom to buy a blade on reddit

It's like that picture of a golden trash bag considering all this is on the ATI stock.

I'm looking for Black Powder and accessories and was told this outfit stocks all sorts. When I tried googling them, it says permanently closed. The guy who recommended them says he was just there.

Are they out of business, or...where do I get BP supplies in southern Ontario?

I’m looking for my first longish range hunting rifle. I want something of good quality to last a long time, maybe around the 2k range.

I won’t be doing crazy intense mountain hunts but I don’t want to limit myself, I really want to start learning long range shooting and spend some good time plinking. Probably looking at .308 caliber.

I was looking at some Sako, like the s90 but my friend is convinced I should get a Bergara but I read some reviews of how it’s hard to get moa and find the right ammo that is accurate.

Howdy Folks!

The Texan is back with yet another gun appreciation post, this time with something of a distant memory, aka Pre-2020 times, back when you used to be able to get an AR-15 platform or lower before they were prohibited.

Now this one isn’t really a gun per se, it’s more of an upper receiver as it was mostly sold this way as a DIY kit. Yes you could get this as a complete firearm, but nowadays thats obviously impossible for you guys since they are now Prohibited Category Firearms.

But still, it is definitely worth a mention because the AR-57, while it wasn’t a perfect platform, it was actually a stepping stone for making 5.7x28mm get out of niche caliber territory, and is now gaining more widespread adoption and popularity, especially because of…. Recent events at an In N’ Out location that gave the round more attention.

Anyways enough of me yapping! Enjoy!

I’ve been looking at getting a match saver for a shotgun of mine and have been wondering what to get

Any recommendations for a first gun
I love the look of tikka ace game .223 look but the 24 inch barrel seems way too much for range shooting max out at 200 yard. And I just can’t find anyone sells the 20inch version. Any other good option without spending more than $2k that’s within the tacticool feeling

Thanks.

I am mostly looking for a good goose gun, but if it's also an all rounder, great!

My FiL has a 20ga mossberg 500, I've heard that it's not really enough for geese.

I've been going down separate rabbit holes, comparing pros and cons, different price points, etc...

So as much as I love the 'vibe' and simplicity of an O/U, I don't know if it would be quick enough for snow geese. I am relatively flexible with my budget, but I would like to stick around $1000.

I thought about semi-autos, beretta a300 or winchester sx4. Then my main question, the pro and cons of a semi auto vs a pump, is it better to get a good pump shotgun or a semi-automatic?

The main use for this shotgun would be for shooting geese in the farmers field where I live. Mostly Canadian goose, but also the odd straggle group of ross/snow geese.

I'd also be using it for practicing skeet/trap shooting. And maybe using lighter loads for rabbit and hare (which is why I know I'd need to spend more on the semi-auto).

TL;DR: What action, brand, price point- shotgun is the best bang for the buck?
