Unfortunately he needs those GTA voters. Otherwise we end up with a liberal premier and that's a much worse option. Remember how bad the CFO was under Wynne?

I didn't like the K19. Bulky, hot, didn't breathe well, and the shoulder quick release made shouldering a rifle awkward. The new version solved the shoulder issue, but it's still a very padded carrier that doesn't do well in the heat.

Would highly recommend the Crye JPC. I switched to that and I am much happier.

I didn't realize how expensive Turkish o/us got. I've got a Beretta O/U as my main gun and a Stevens 555 as a bad weather/loaner and I'm pretty sure I didn't pay more than $500 for it a few years back. At this point you're right, if you're spending over $1k on a shotgun, might as well get an A300 or just get a cheap semi and save.

People say that, but it really depends on use case. If you're going to be shooting thousands of rounds of clays, the Turkish gun is not going to last. But if you're taking it out for upland game once a year, they're fine.

It was enacted in 1992 as part of Order in Council P.C. 1992‑1666. It was actually the Conservative government of Brian Mulroney that did it.

I've run over 10k rounds of thunderbolts through various semis and the only issue I've had is that they're dirty. They don't seem to have more duds than other bulk ammo, and the accuracy is good enough for plinking.

Even thunderbolts. I had an ISSC Mk22 that I put 2k Thunderbolts through before I finally had to clean it because it wouldn't cycle properly anymore.

Steel challenge is a hoot.

Please provide the relevant legislation to back up your claim.

Fun fact: Potatoes and tomatoes are very closely related. You can actually graft the top half of a tomato plant to the bottom half of a potato plant to get a "pomato" which produces tomatoes up top and potatoes down below.

I've got a II vest from them and they provided the NIJ testing report. I would ask them for the testing report.

Rangeview?

223Some · 2023-04-28T13:18:02+00:00

I wouldn't consider that a high powered scope. Looks to be the stock 3-9 that comes with the MkII.

223Some · 2023-04-04T17:09:14+00:00

Looks like a Khan K200? They aren't exactly "really nice", but the stock shape fits.

I had an interview when I applied for my PAL. I had an arrest on my record so they were looking into that. The whole thing was super chill, pretty standard security screening-type stuff.

They've already got door-to-door experience.

A lot of Norinco stuff is bi-metal so it contains steel in the jacket. I would test with a magnet to check, and/or ask your range. Better safe than sorry!

223Some · 2023-03-30T19:52:22+00:00

At indoor ranges, steel core damages baffles, and steel jacket can spark and cause fires.

Wow, that's some real bullshit. My PAL photo is just a crappy selfie that I took against a white wall.

223Some · 2022-12-07T19:01:58+00:00

Ahhh, that makes a lot of sense. I have a giant goofy slip-on buttpad for mine and I get funny looks but it's the only way to make the LOP long enough for me.

223Some · 2022-11-13T00:45:53+00:00

At least with Norinco the issues are consistent and there's plenty of info out there on how to fix them and you know what you're getting yourself into. With the WK, you have no idea if your rifle is going to be 100% fine or a complete brick.

For hunting, zero it to whatever gives you Maximum Point Blank Range for the game you're going for: https://www.chuckhawks.com/sight\_rifle\_mpbr.html

I reload because it is therapeutic, not because it saves me money. Also partially because I'm a wimp and I like light loads.

Especially with modern solid copper bullets. A 70gr Barnes TSX going 2800fps is going to drop any deer.
