Brand new with foam picked it up for $150 - now I need to find a way to make it more modular or somehow stack guns..

Did someone Customize their Russian SKS with a Fab Defence Chassis + the Matador Arms SKS scope mount + SKS Magwell Adapter….. Waiting for my PAL to arrive and I been thinking about this lil project of mine. I been looking all over YouTube but couldn’t find one video or built on the internet. Is it like a Packer Punch weapon or Taboo build in the SKS FAMILY ? Waiting for yall opinion… don’t be scared. WE LISTEN AND WE DONT JUDGE !!!

Here’s a fun failure I’ve never seen before! Happened during clay match. To be fair though I love this gun and have shot thousands of rounds through it.

Thought I would share with the group. Has anyone else experienced something like this?

Any thoughts on this? I just saw Adriel’s, AKA hunting gear guy, review on this.

Looks… fine? Has anyone shot this thang yet? Please share some experience on accuracy and reliability.

Thanks in advance.

honestly surprisingly not bad for $200. I thought this thing was going to suck ass. it exceeded my very low expectations

Unknown at this time maybe I’ll still end up coughing up the money for the fox operator buffer tube but I said to my self last night why not just make your own. So I present to you this thing. Here’s a v1 prototype I’ve got a few changes to make and reprint it for test fitting but this is functional . I just tossed on a random stock for photos I plan on using a prs lite or a moe/ctr stock. Thanks for looking!

mine has to be the Hunt Group MH12. double barreled pump sounds fun on paper, but it's just so heavy. with the fixes stocked it weights 16.1 lbs. it's just so big.

Sorry in advance as im not a review guy but i wanted to give some input on this rifle and i haven’t seem much on it.... so here we go

​

​

Finally got the Kr22 tactical out to the range today with a buddy and got roughly 600ish rounds down the tube before I ran out of ammo and called it a day, S&B canadian match ammo, will test different brands next weekend.

​

First thoughts, its a full polymer/plastic upper and lower aswell as the handguard, feels nice, super light, and has little to no wiggle (feels solid), build quality is better than expected for a 300$ Turkish semi 22lr, comes with backup irons and a muzzle device.

​

OEM mags are garbage, i better luck with the small box 10 round ruger 10/22 mags, the bx25 pinned mags gave me more trouble for some reason but still better than the mags it comes with, ergonomics are nice but the saftey is super stiff and kinda sharp, trigger feels cheap and clunky, and the folding stock doesn't like to stay folded but again... 300$ i can't be too picky.

​

We ran around 600 rounds of S&B canadian match, 3 light strikes, 27 failure to feeds and sometimes seems like it was trying to load 2 rounds at once, it would eject slow and some empty casings got totally crushed by the bolt coming back forward before it made its way out of the chamber, I regret not taking photos of the malfunctions as maybe someone could have given some insight since im not super firearm savy, I will be trying different brands and velocities to see if it will run better, rifle feels great in the hands and does scratch the itch a little with the takedown pins and saftey location,

​

Hopefully I can figure out how to get it running better as it's definitely fun while it works!

Almost done with this project.

Two piece SKs handguard out of PA612-CF with aluminum inserts for heat dissipation.

.357 at 12 yards. I know I need more practice. I'm just glad I hit the paper.

Just want to give everyone here a word of caution

I recently purchased a set of Crossmags for my rifle. Worked great until both my mags started cracking. Tried sending them an email with no response. Called the number on their website and it has been disconnected

Upon further lookup, turns out they went bankrupt a year ago

Cross Industries Ltd | MNP LTD

Just in case anyone wants to purchase their mags, don't expect to get any kind of help if they break

In the meantime, anyone have suggestions on mags for my CZ600 Trail?

New pump action 9mm. Maybe we might get lucky and see in Canada? German made. Just no idea on the price point.

Over all decent gun for $300. Straight off the bat I threw in a sbi mag adapter for the rem 597 mags.

Gave me a few stovepipes, but not enough to complain about. Put 100 rounds of norma tac 22 through it, and 100 rounds of blazer.

Anyone removed the extractor from these? The pins seem super tough to remove, I’d just like to go over the extractor a bit.

So I bought a tikka ctr and put it into a fancy chassis that feeds AICS mags bc from my research tikkas are the absolute best at the price point, in terms of action smoothness and accuracy.

I was purchasing something at my local gun store (that for some reason doesnt carry tikkas) and I started asking one of the guys about replacing my tikka barrel eventually, because 6.5PRC has a short barrel life.

He asked me with great disappointment why I got a tikka if i knew I was going to replace the barrel. I told him bc the action is smooth and its very accurate, best gun for the price.

He said, 1. Tikka actions are loose and have loose tolerances compared to custom actions that he had on display, which gives the illusion of smoothness. 2. Any modern bolt gun is going to be accurate especially if you reload. (Which I do)

So now im wondering, is he onto something or on something? Doesnt a loose action tolerate dirt and snow better? Was there actually a (much) better option I could have chosen with 1500CAD?

I'm new to this, and I was looking for an entry-level shotgun for bird hunting. Any thoughts?

TLDR: You need to dremel out some material on the Fox Operator flared magwell before it will work with the Sythetic Alcor.

So just a quick update, for those looking to get the flared mag well from Fox Operator, be mindful that IT WILL NOT WORK with the with synthetic stock version of the Akdas Alcor. You will need to dremel out some material on the flared magwell itself, to adapt it to the curvature of this version of the Alcor's trigger guard.

Having said that, once the dremeling was finished it fit together well and there seems to be no other fitmit issues.

I will say It does make a big difference in mag reloads, getting a mag in is much easier now.

Hope this helps again!

I noticed 313 Operator had a Crusader Arms Backland Comp when he was showing his collection on Instagram. He had previously done a video on his Akdas Alcor Kodiak Edition which had been modified with a Made-in-Canada Kodiak parts selection, including an adapter that allowed use of an AR buffer tube, pistol grip, and trigger, and M-Loc fore-end. I asked him which he preferred, the Crusader Comp or his Kodiak-modified Alcor, and he stated he preferred the Alcor. So if you can't wait for the Makasi or Carmel and need something you can buy right now to scratch the .223 itch, in 313's opinion the Alcor is your best bet.

I want to say that I really like this rifle, but freaking hell extractors drive me crazy.

I drove 2.5 houses from Toronto and randomly chose this spot

Double checked with the municipality and atlas

But ngl it was annoying af to get here

I know we are supposed to gatekeep these places but tbh, nothing much to gate keep here

TM22's are taking over 3 gun competitions. Here's a review on 2 of them.

I've got a couple extra tips in the article here: https://www.huntinggearguy.com/rimfire/tm22-feather-review/

tip 1: if you're getting failures to eject, consider removing your left extractor (the gun has 2)

tip 2: check your barrel nut tightness, lots are barely finger tight

Finally took out my Kral KR 22 to the range today, and I could not be happier. For a gun that only cost $279, she shot absolutely amazing, surpassing my expectations. Here’s the full breakdown:

- the stock mags are shit, invest in a REM 597 adapter and REM 597 promags. The mags will need to be broken in with some use and maybe some oil

- I fired over 200 rounds and maybe had 10 misfires at most. I tried minimag CCIs, stingers and blazers, and I would definitely recommend the minimags. I shot 100 of them and maybe had 3 misfires

- for a 22lr, this thing is pretty accurate, I attached some photos of what I shot at 20yds

- overall is a very smooth lil plinker, would def recommend to anyone new or on a budget

Setup:
- kr22 OD colour
- Rem 597 adapter
- (2) promag 597 22rd mags
- kill house airsoft red/green dot
- cheap ahh laser at the bottom
