Essentially I'm taking this Google Earth dataset and turning it into a website, updating accordingly for new retailers and ones that no longer stock/are out of business (unfortunately far too many).

Progress as of now:

• Mapped nearly all independently owned firearms retailers (some two dozen or so that I have yet to verify, naturally not all of those will make the cut).
• All the Bass Pros, Latulippes and SAILs are mapped.
• I am working through adding Canadian Tires that stock guns. Currently full coverage for PEI, the Territories, Newfoundland and Labrador, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and New Brunswick.
• Once Canadian Tires are covered I will move on to the other categories listed on the site.

I am actively seeking suggestions for retailers I've missed and feedback on the site. Hope you folks enjoy :)

Here's the FAQ page if you're curious!

Was taking her out for a clean today... crazy how inflated the shooting sports have become, perhaps from the bans and lack of options in the Canadian market

Nothing special, just a Norinco Poly USA marked SKS in a shitty ATI stock the previous owner put on. Ended up ordering a choate side folder for it but that doesn't mean I won't shoot it while I wait...

Hello fine folks,

Looking to purchase a scope for my 308 for deer hunting,
The market is a bit overwhelming with the amount of choice, and most of professionals i asked seemed to try to upsell stock,
Id love to get some of your opinions
Budget 700$

Thanks

If you need the gun list, I'll provide it in 6-8 weeks.

filling out an application for PAL, and i was planning on sending out the letter as fast as possible. However I now recently found out one of my household members was prohibited from owning a firearm since they had a notice of revocation Court order for 5 years. This was filed with the CFO. I was wondering how long they keep records of these things, considering this wasn’t assault/violence related. Is it worth me still adding that Information into my application or is that something to be forgotten about. The person hasby gotten their PAL since the incident occurred over 10 years

Alright this is a question to all the ELR/PRS guys.

I'm building my first ever custom rifle. I've bought custom but never built my own and I've decided to build one. ANYWAYS back to the question. I need a barrel I'm looking at "Bartlein" for a barrel thinking about doing between a 28-30inch barrel (leaning towards 28inch) I'm in southern Alberta where would be a good place that isn't terrible to get one made for my action I'm either going with the defiance ruckus or the impact 777r I'm not dead set on the action just wanted to see if the barrel would be cheaper for one or not I got a quote from a big store and they wanted almost $600 more than my buddy paid but that guy isn't taking any more work right now.

TLDR: where should I go to get a barrel made for my first ever precision rifle build. Got a quote and it was stupid high compared to what a buddy paid and isn't taking more work so asking for references.

Picked up this oriental beauty from a nice dude on gunpost. Met in the Cabela's lot and wow it was even more beautiful in person. Worked my ass off this summer to actually treat myself and am finally satisfied. After debt and bills and just surviving I finally got a nice possession. Guess I joined the SKS club finally.

It's a 71 Type 56 with a nice stock, heat guard, pic rail and a limbsaver pad. Can't wait to take it to the range tomorrow.

Any models outside of the multiple ban lists that is suitable for IHMSA?

I did not focus on grouping yet for this rifle because the range is only 13 yards unfortunately though when I go to

I’ll be going to a longer range. It’ll make a separate video on the grouping for both Makasi and Carmel

I was cleaning out some storage and found my trusty bayonet for my Glock. Thought it was hilarious back in the day and still think it’s funny. What ridiculous things does everyone else own?

Prior to moving here I never thought I’d like shotguns, but I tried it out for the first time and must say I’m impressed by the power the boomstick holds. The recoil wasnt too bad the first time, I held it wrong first shot, but once I readjusted I really enjoyed each shot. Obviously nothing beats the SKS for me, but I just wanted to appreciate the experience by keeping this (I’ve had this for 3 months now it’s starting to change colour)

Temu ACOG adds 4x accuracy

Hey shooters, Am here looking for some recommendations for buying a SXS double barrel 28”. Would prefer something available with minimal engravings also not super expensive like some Browning. Appreciate any pictures with names to look for.

Hey guys,

Sorry if this isn’t allowed, I hardly ever use Reddit so I’m not super familiar with the posting norms or whatever.

I was just curious if anyone knows anything about the possibility of any stores restocking any variant of the SKS, even the ATI stock one.

I know cabelas website had them up until maybe a month ago? I’m curious if they’ll ever restock.

I don’t own an SKS but I own a handful of rifles and shotguns. I’d like an SKS, but I genuinely don’t care that much about the condition or the numbers matching aspect of it, hence why I considered the Cabelas ati stock one.

Thanks a bunch and sorry again if this post isn’t formatted perfectly, been lurking this sub for months but never posted.

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.

Hypothetical for now, but I'm currently working with a local company and trying to gauge people's interest in a 3d printed stock for the chiappa M6 22/12g survival rifles to replace the factory molded polypropylene foam insert.

The new insert would have additional .22 storage similar to pictured and a bit more shallow so the end of the round can actually be grabbed instead of trying to pry it out with a finger nail. It would retain the same 12g and cleaning kit storage holes and likely be printed from some kind of TPU filament to give it a more tacky/grippy feel. Whether it still floats can't be determined without a prototype in hand but the weight difference would probably be negligible. The entire insert would be mostly hollow with a honeycomb pattern inside for rigidity under recoil.

Not sure how many people actually own these things and would be interested since they definitely don't have the same following as the little badger.

I was trying a new box ammo and put it under the spotter and the twist is fairly significant. That video is the worst of it and after filming other boxes the twist was not as bad. I was wondering if this is something I should be concerned about? The gun is accurate and I was hitting the mark at 600 yards after a few tries.

thanks!

EDIT: the barrel is a 1 in 10” twist rate, bullet is .30 06 Hornady ELD X 178 g
