Interested and excited to start this hobby/pastime. But am fearful of the damage to ears, I already purchased some walker xcel 500 headphones for outdoor shooting and was going to double up. Wondering if there is anything else I can do or if I should just not worry

I've been told it might be a Lee Enfield, possibly a No. 4 MK I or a SMLE. But after looking at photos the magazine here isn't located close to the trigger guard or maybe I'm misunderstanding something. It's my dad in this photo, but he passed away several years ago, or I'd have asked him directly. Anyway, I'll appreciate any insight or clues, thanks!

Misc Why no one is making a new PCC in 22WMR in Canada?

34 Upvotes

Last I checked:

  • 22WMR is not limited by new semi auto design ban.
  • 22WMR is not limited by mag capacity.
  • 22WMR is a hell lot fun to shoot.
  • 22WMR is actually useful in small game hunting.
  • 22WMR PCC will be actually useful in competition.
  • 22WMR is incredible economical to shoot as well.
  • 22WMR can be made in really compact and light form factor for fun and for work (hunting).

So why is no one making new PCCs in that caliber and ammo in Canada?

Hello? MRA? Kodiak? anyone?

I’m wondering about getting some dummy’s for my Henry big boy in brass and I’m wondering if the dummy’s since they are steel would wear out parts if I practice running the action and loading? Might be stupid to ask or worry about so don’t roast me I’m just asking.

Misc Makasi & Carmel Hype Post

10 Upvotes

As we wait ever so (im)patiently, let's use this post to (hopefully) make the time go by faster.

.

Let's hear what you guys have in mind, feel free to post your setups in here too! Leave any negativity at the door, we have too much of it inside the (metaphorical) house already.

.

I'll start with some info regarding the OEM Makasi folding stock, and what I'll be replacing it with and why:

.

OEM Makasi Stock:

- Adapter: 1913 Picatinny

- Mount Function: Folding, Left

- Stock Length W/ Adapter: 8-3/4”

- Stock Length W/O Adapter: 8-1/4”

- Stock Height: 4.5"

- Weight: 1.4 lb

- Mount Height: 1.77"

- Mount Width: 1.75"

- Info provided by IRG

- All steel construction

.

Make: 5KU

Model: TS-8RP Triangle Rised Cheek Stock W/ M1913 Adapter

3pc Cheek Riser: 5KU TPR Rubber Cheek Riser Pads

.

- Total length = 9" with hinge

- Should still fit without interfering with the non-reciprocating charging handle (TBD, but I'm confident)

- Weighs 325g with everything assembled (folding hinge adapter, stock, cheek riser and screws)

- Without riser it weighs 300g

- Total weight = 0.72lbs

- Total Makasi stock weight = at least 1.4lbs (maybe more if folding adapter wasn't included, but I think it was)

- Twice as light as the OEM stock

- Hinge is steel, stock is aluminum

.

I went with this particular stock because the hinge is steel and the stock is aluminum. It's also one of the few that I saw that uses 2 thick screws to connect the stock to the hinge, most only use 1.

.

I've also seen a durability test on YouTube with similar 5KU stocks (they have a lot) where they beat the shit out of them and they're incredibly durable.

.

There is also a model just like mine except its completely straight, doesn't have the raised cheek weld. In hindsight, I probably should've went with that one instead. They also come in different colours if that's your thing.

.

My primary goal was to 1) reduce weight, 2) while still maintaining durability, 3) at a low cost. There are tons of options for pic rail stocks, this was the only one I could find that satisfies my 3 goals.

.

It was ordered from Hong Kong, took about a month to arrive. I'm sure you'll find people scalping these soon enough on various local sale websites. I won't link anything directly, but I only paid about $115 CAD all in for the stock + cheek risers.

.

NOT ALL STOCKS ARE COMPATIBLE WITH THE CHEEK RISERS. The stock must have two holes drilled through the top to use the exact ones I mentioned. I'd rather my face not touch cold/hot aluminum, yes I'm a huge pussy.

.

Finally, I also got some rail covers both for the MLOK and Picrail and a BCM short vert grip. I'll be pairing this with a Vortex Sport 30mm Cantilever mount with a Hawke Endurance 30 FD 1.7-10x44mm and Offset Magpul MBUS Pro (back up sights).

I recently picked up some score low recoil slugs and high velocity slugs but when I opened them I noticed that the brass neck or whatever ya call it are the same length compared to my challenger target slugs where the brass neck is super short, so I’m just wondering if they’re made like that or if they put high velocity slugs into a low recoil slug box.

Misc sks rant

0 Upvotes

I just need to rant for a second. I bought an SKS with an ATI stock from Bass Pro because it was on sale. I didn’t get a chance to shoot it for about a month. When I finally sat down to clean it, I realized it was missing both the gas piston extension and the spring.

Essentially, I bought a bolt-action SKS.

I emailed Bass Pro customer service, and their response was incredibly disappointing. They told me that next time, I should completely strip the gun down at the retail counter. They basically said, "Too bad, so sad." It really sucks because now I am out almost $1,000, but I guess that’s life. and cant find the parts online

I have randomly only received 2 issues over 2 years and keep getting charged for the subscription. has anyone else been having issues or is it just me? Does anyone have a phone number to get a hold of someone?

I`ve sent half a dozen emails to the provided addresses on their website and facebook page and have gotten 0 responses.

Can anyone help me with this?

Misc Easy cleanup method at my outdoor range

37 Upvotes

When I've invited people over to shoot at my range, we used to spend too much time picking up shotgun hulls and any brass larger than 22LR. The last couple of sessions, I've put a nice heavy 10'x10' tarp on the ground at our most used distance. We put my Caldwell portable table on it or stand on it while shooting. 99% of the brass stays on the tarp. At the end of the session we either lift the corners and then scoop it into a bucket from the centre, or we just fold the tarp and deal with it when back home.

I'd definitely use this method if I was shooting on public land too. Maybe we could start a trend and most people would do this so that there'd be less mess left behind. Just a thought.

The table all shooters use at my local range spot was flipped over and heavily damaged.Some other folks showed up shortly after me and were just as upset as I was.I know it doesn’t sound like a big deal but somebody built this table for everyone to use and it’s been there for years thankfully it’s currently being repaired but damn this made me mad.

I was looking at the SA80 from this link https://gunsweek.com/en/rifles/news/murdoch-co-em85-rifles-real-civilian-sa-80. it seems to me that this would be classified as non-restricted. I took a look on armalytics and it is only banned due to being automatic, but a semi auto clone should be fine.
