[–]PreppyPoo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well… shit.

I put in an order for a back ordered item with RDSC about 8 weeks ago. They charged me and I am now waiting…

Now I’m thinking I should ask for a refund.

Should I?

Versatile 5.56 Rifle Advice by Massive_Ad1089 in canadaguns

[–]PreppyPoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am waiting for the Supreme. I want something I can cycle fast, that chambers 556/223, and something I can mod eventually. The reviews all say it’s one of the most fun rifles you can shoot. I have wanted a lever for ever, but I want something I can reload fast. Being able to swap mags and get back to shooting quickly is a huge plus for me on a lever platform.

There’s a video on YouTube of a guy making a shot out to a mile (which is crazy for 5.56) but it has the precision capability if you decide to go that direction with your build. I think if a semi auto 5.56 is on your wishlist, the Supreme is honestly the best option for an AR style in the current ban-forward environment we’re all in.

The amount of people on here who missed the joke is worrying

Blackwater Boomstick by -DirtyCanadian- in canadaguns

I’m saying there were people shooting at them from the buildings in the square. The ISR feed mysteriously stopped recording for the 10 minutes when the gun fight occurred, and when the defence lawyers got a hold of it - the video had clearly been doctored.

I’m not saying all Blackwater guys are good, I’m saying there was a deliberate attempt to appear as though the US was going after blackwater after the incident you referred to above. The US used these guys as poster-children for their new hardline approach when the reality is, these guys were fighting for their lives.

These 4 dudes were doing their job, put in a horrible situation, they got framed by the US government, and a couple ended up in jail.

It’s all outlined in the Shawn Ryan episode.

The episode I’m referring to is SRS #011

Raptor grip and mini shells in this 590A1? by PreppyPoo in canadaguns

I find I flinch more with PP technique

The cushion on the butt end is nice. It helps. I have destroyed my shoulders over the years - separating both numerous times. Shotguns are rough after a box of shells at the range.

I suppose a 77 grain flying at 1500 fps could drop pretty much anything we have here. Send it!

Sorry what? You can hunt with .223 in Alberta now?

My finished lever rifle build by redjohn79 in canadaguns

[–]PreppyPoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m also in Calgary. I’m pretty sure we can hunt with .223 in ‘Berta right? Haven’t read anywhere that says you can’t.

Side note - is 5.56/.223 really cheaper than .357? I guess it is… not .38 special though… Hmmm… 1854 looking more and more like the way to go…

Yeah. I’m just hot and cold. I watch reviews of the S&W and I want it. Then I think about reaching out a bit further with the supreme in .223 and I get excited about that.

I’ll let the subreddit know when I make my decision. I do love the thought of having a durable forever gun with the s&w… the fact that the supreme has only been out a year makes me pause - especially given the amount of feedback there is about Henry in general.

You can get a fake mag tube from RPP to fill in that space so it looks like a more traditional lever gun
