Just saw this video that came up on my YouTube feed. Prior to 1969 I guess it was legal to hunt with a handgun/revolver. In less than 60 years so much has changed in regards to bs firearms restrictions smh.

Anyways shout out to "The Way to Native Chronicles". He makes a lot of good Canadian gun/hunting content.

The Attorney General of Canada just informed the SCC it won't oppose the groups asking to join CCFR v. Canada as interveners, thereby allowing them to participate in the case.

This isn't a ruling on the merits, just the AGC declining to block their entry. Intervener status itself doesn't declare a side, but based on what these orgs publicly stand for, it's not hard to guess. To keep it simple, 11 of the 12 interveners are likely to side with the CCFR, against 1 which is explicitly on the government's side.

From left to right:

Swedish M96 Mauser made at Carl Gustaf in 1917.

Swedish M38 Mauser made by Husqvarna in 1941.

Lee Enfield No5 Mk1 Jungle Carbine made by Fazakerly in December 1946.

K98k made by JP Sauer in 1943 and refurbished after the war by who knows what country (not the Russians though).

1954 Tula SKS.

1966 TIPO 2 M1 Garand with a 1944 dated springfield reciever, has mix of italian, springfield, and winchester parts.

Running out of storage space lol.

Just wanted to throw out a quick review on the metal handguard and grip adapter that Neumann Metalworks just put out. Super reasonably priced, came to I think $170 all in with express shipping included. I am putting a picatinny stock on it but just figured I'd snap some photos of it now, as the stock itself arrives in another day or two.

Super solid feel, easy install, and very cheap for what you get. The handguard and grip were combined, half the price of the Midwest Industries handguard alone, which has also been discontinued I believe.

Did not receive any sort of incentive from NM to write this, just doing so because he was great to interact with, has install tutorials too on his site to make it super easy, and was a great price for all aluminum furniture for it. Super nice to have a modern ergonomic PCC setup again.

Photo doesn't have the picatinny stock installed yet as Im still waiting for it to arrive in the mail. Mag in the photo is of course empty, just stuck it in the rifle to complete the look for the photo to show off the furniture.

Very solid kit, good fitment, I love it. It is just a bit over 27" OAL even without the picatinny stock installed, so i believe it is technically legal to use even with just the pistol grip as it is over 26" OAL, someone correct me though if I am remembering wrong or misinterpreting something (I dont intend to use it anyway until I have the remainder of the stock installed).

These Yugos are packing man

Left: Steyr LP10E, Morini 162EI

Right: Walther GSP 500, Pardini SP (both 22lr)

The Walther is for me, the others I picked up from a retiring shooter who moved to the UK and already have buyers for (they're right handed - I'm not).

Finally got my parts in from Neumann metal works (no thanks to canada post)! Super happy with quality and fitment. This is my first time owning a red dot so im itching to head out to SPFGA as soon as their ranges open back up.

Had an NP22 kicking around that I rarely shot. Since the transfer ban has ruined any chance of me picking up anything new, I figured I'd play dress up a bit with it.

Original pistol is an NP22. Parts include a Sig Pro-Cut slide, Trijicon RMR HD, E2 Grip with updated mainspring, short reset trigger kit, Gray Guns adjustable flat face trigger, Sig threaded barrel, Sig recoil spring, Surefire X300, and Mecgar weighted baseplate comp mags.

It shoots amazingly well, with the biggest change coming from the SRT kit and the Gray Guns trigger. Obviously having a red dot on there now is a huge bonus as well.

Unfortunately no markings on Tins

They are 7.62x39

Anyone able, even estimate, the round count in these?

Heads up, guys check your Hush Holsters SKS stock. Mine cracked from the buttstock to the grip after just a few uses and I’m still waiting on my wood replacement.

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 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!

Figured I'd submit an access to information request to Alberta Justice to see the real story on why/why not the ASFCP hasn't made any effort to setup a mobile collection unit in province, the obvious aside.

Only to be met with a fee request of $15,000.

Looks like a great way to prevent the citizens from attaining access to the information they're entitled to.

Hello everyone. I’ve been struggling to find an appropriate optic for my Ruger Scout .308. I do not like the traditional scout scope setup, it’s a bit awkward. I’ve tried an LPVO and it was just okay. Looking for opinions and advice from individuals who have used the Spectre or a Spectre clone. I’m open to other optic recommendations as well. Thanks.

Hi all, I recently bought my SW1854 Stealth Hunter, chambered in 44 Mag. Absolutely love it.

I’d like to get a red dot for this rifle. Could y’all share some opinions? Thanks a lot.

I actually prefer Holosun HE510C 2 MOA Green Dot Sight Black. Is it a good option?

Does anyone know how to remove the adaptor covering the trigger pins? I stripped the entire lower and can’t figure it out. Also can’t find anything online.

I'm just curious and not really looking for a debate. Thank you
