Plastic trigger guards work well enough... but the upgraded trigger group on an 870 Police Magnum, 870 Wingmaster, or 590A1 are what will survive real abuse.

Hi all,

Wanted to hear the community's thoughts on this scope. I was planning to get a red dot for the makasi but thought this might be a better option.

My usage will mainly be target shooting at an indoor range.

Hi there. I've been curios about the backland hunter due to it's specific style. I've been in the market for a new firearm for a bit. I've been deciding on the backland hunter, mk15, and the carmel. I know that the backland hunter has had some issues with customers and other review posts. But like i mentioned. It's current style of how it looks really intrigues me. Please let me know if it's worth dumping over 2,000 on the mk15 or better to get the backland hunter.

What's the thoughts for lever gun handle wrap preferences? Leather or paracord wrap? For running without gloves. I noticed Amazon has the Wayne's Dog leathers which look nice.

Cheers.

I have the TM22 Derya, Sks Chinese with an archangel pistol conversion and a 30rnd mag (limited to 5rnds), a TacOP Canuk, and a lever action.

I want to grow my collection, I like tactical, military style guns. Please suggest what guns would be good for me and any modifications that would make my guns look cool.

I want to add a 5.56 gun to my collection
Any cool Over and under shotguns for clay disk shooting.

I am a newbie please help!

Looking to get into PRS and trying to figure out what tripod to go with. I’m seeing options from Leofoto, RRS, FatBoy and Vortex.
What are you guys running/recommending, and where are you buying them in Canada?
I’ll mainly be using ARCA, but it would be nice to have the option to use rifles without an ARCA rail as well.
Not looking to cheap out, but also don’t want to spend RRS money if something else gets me most of the way there. What would you go with?

Just got an update on pal application and it’s approved and getting mailed out. Just doing some early searching so I’m ready to pull the trigger on something once the license is in hand. Any suggestions on website? As of right now I’ve been scouting out firearms outlet.

With the handgun freeze, does anyone here run antique single action revolvers in cowboy action shooting competitions?

I’d like to get into competition shooting, and cowboy action caught my eye. How common is it to buy antiques for that purpose? Assuming that they comply with the rules of the competition and actually shoot/function safely.

Hey all. I haven't bought a rifle in years, and I've recently been bit by the Lever action bug. I have never owned one before, nor have I ever fired one, but given the current available rifles, this one appeals to me. I like that it's mag fed, and is available in both 223/5.56 and 300blk as well as that it takes stanag mags.

I'm a left handed shooter, so I'll have to move the rifle away from my face when I cycle the action. I learned that the hard way with a T97 years ago which threw hot brass a long distance and into my face at high velocity). I don't see that as an issue here, but let me know if I'm missing something. If it is an issue would something like a Rossi R92 be better?

I would probably add black furniture and a top rail to the rifle. Who's making aftermarket stuff for these?

Thanks!

Hi all, finally became an owner of a chinese type 56 sks. Looking for stock upgrade options.

I dont wish to put 69 different mods on my sks,

I also dont mind losing access to my bayonet.

Looking for a stock upgrade thatll be compatible with bipods/ mags and maybe just maybe ill put a short scope on her but not right now.

I was considering a choate dragunov stock as it looks filthy sick. But really dont want the fab defense ones. What other stocks or chassis systems would you guys recommend and from where. Please advise

I am located in Calgary, Alberta and want to join a handgun competition however I am uncertain about the requirements around it. My range is located in Rocky Mountain House and has pistol ranges I use often.

Am I required to be IPSC certified for all of the competitions? If so what if my range doesn’t offer this course. Where can I do it.

Ultimately I’d love some advice or even pay for some information as to how one goes about joining a league and shooting competitively.

Thanks ahead of time!

Does anyone what happened to Derya TM22s in the style like the ones in picture 1? I haven't been on here or looked around at gun stores in about a year. Last year I remember looking at them, was thinking of getting one but never did. Now the only ones I can find are the ones in the 2nd-4th pictures. I personally don't like the one that doesn't have the guard (rail? not actually sure what the proper name is) all the way down the barrel, or the feather. The last picture says it is a Derya TM22 Flash? Does anyone know what is different with that one than the originals in the first photo? Are the ones in the first photo still on the market and I just can't find them?
If any has some info on this, it would be appreciated.

Hi everyone,

I’m new to firearms. I recently got my license and went to a range to try out a few different guns. I’d like my first firearm to be a Mossberg 590A1 (the basic model; as a white belt in firearms I probably am not ready for upgrades like Magpul furniture, etc.).

I’m going to buy online because the closest local shops are 5–6 hours away, and none of them have the 590A1. There is a reddit post that lists all major gun shops in Canada. I've narrowed my options down to these: RDSC, GoTenda, Firearms Outlet Canada, G4C, and Reliable Guns. My requirements are as follows: Excellent customer service and communication (esp after sale, how they handle problems and warranty issues), integrity (won't send me a returned/used gun), good packaging and safe shipping.

Most of them offer free shipping since the price is over $500. RDSC charges around $20 for shipping, but I don’t mind paying a little extra if they have a better reputation for customer service and overall reliability. The 590A1's price also varies by roughly $10–$30 between these retailers, but that is okay.

Please share your thoughts as to where I should buy from. Thank you!

I am in the market for a target pistol, especially a Ruger Mark IV.
Anyone got any leads on retailers that still have those?
Or does anyone know how's the import process with IRG?

I am deciding between the match pro ED 5-30 and then arken 5-25 gen2 with the TOR reticle. Im strongly leaning towards the arken as it has clearer glass, but i read somewhere that the warrenty is annoying in Canada. Which one has the better or vortex-like warranty?

Old and decrepit here, so it's getting tougher to hold a rifle steady and doesn't take long for the joints to pack it in. It's got me thinking about a tripod of some sort, to be used with 22's and a Henry Homesteader.

I see a couple different styles available; a simple yoke that requires you to provide additional support, and a locking clamp on a ballhead.

Care to offer your pros and cons on either system? The ballhead and clamp setup seems the clear choice for me but is significantly more expensive so I'd love to hear from someone who has tried them. Any adverse effects to the firearms after longterm use of the vice setup?

BOG DeadShot and DeathGrip are readily available in my area, any insight on that brand and those products?

it's for close-range hunting using 30-06

My goal is thé get it as close as I can to the h scar I plan on using a chunky red dot and magnifier plus a vertical handgrip paired with lar15 pistol mags this is because it’s always been my sons dream to use a h scar so I though this is as close as I can get plus it just looks to good to pass up

but how is the gun I was comparing it to Adler ad500a but it does not look no where near as good

Hey folks as I wait for my PAL to arrive in the mail. I’ve been constantly browsing online and doing lots of research into different firearms. I mostly would be using them to bring along when I go hiking out to a back lake for trout incase I come across any small game or birds. I also plan on doing a bit of turkey hunting.

I have access to a .22LR that I can borrow as well. I’ve been looking into something like a 20 gauge mossberg 500 figured it’s fairly versatile and would be a good starter until I inevitably buy more. If you guys have an suggestions on models, gauge etc I’d love to hear em and let me know what you think.

With all the Makasi discourse going on I wanted to ask if anyone knows anything about how the Carmel’s are coming along

Has anyone had experience with RITON scopes? Looking at getting a 1 Primal 4-16 (unsure if I want to spend the extra on a 3primal) for the gen2 ruger American 5.56 I’ve been waiting on (sent to warranty upon arrival) since February.
My other scopes are sig sauer tango 4 on a semi, vortex on the 308 or a 3–9 luepold I had to shim to get zerod on a bolt 22lr.

Hey everyone,

I’m looking to mount a scope on my Savage B22G bolt-action .22 LR. It’ll be a dual-purpose rifle for plinking and small game hunting (grouse and rabbits). I’d prefer a scope with a 50-yard parallax or an adjustable parallax.

I’ve looked at the Athlon Neos scopes, but they seem a bit heavy. The Leupold VX-Freedom 2–7x33 is a little on the expensive side for me. I might consider a Vortex Crossfire HD as well.

I’m open to suggestions!

I’ve been looking for an auction site and wanted to know if anyone had a reliable one for anything firearm related in Canada.

How legit is this website to order a kar98, if it’s not where can I get one of war kar98 mauser, german or any other variant. To be shipped Alberta

Newest procurement ... Beretta 1301 Mod 2 Tactical with S&J Hardware bolt handle and mag extension and a Burris Fastfire E red dot on a Reptilia mount. Henry Model X with a Holosun 509T red dot on a Ranger Point Precision low profile mount and an Olight PL X. Going to keep upgrading but so far really really happy with both of them.
