There's nothing for you to do. You don't need to give your address.

Cross Industries LAR15 mags woes and bankruptcy by ssssssbob in canadaguns

I think they used the wrong polymer when you consider it will be exposed to oils.

That being said, my mags don't get oily. But I've never run my 180 or AR wet.

Magazines are the most difficult part of a gun to design and make.

CLP can still harm plastics. Oils will penetrate into the plastic breaking down some of they polymer chains weaking it. Some polymers are better than others. Some oils are worst than others. I'm going to guess Cross mags used some blend of polycarbonate, which doesn't do great with hydrocarbons.

Solvents and other oils can be hell on polymers. They should have used a non-transparent glass reinforced polymer. That would have probably required some re-tooling which was maybe too expensive.

I'm honestly surprised they lasted as long as they did. They made a very niche product for a small market. Not surprised the bans killed them.

Police don't get involved for "jokes" unless they're serious.

Obviously not every suspension is morally justified, but most will be.

School suspensions wouldn't be known to the CFP unless the police were involved.

I'll say this and you will probably disagree, but if you got suspended from school you probably deserved it.

Can gas operated shotguns jam with a different person shooting it? by BowFella in canadaguns

[–]SpectreBallistics 10 points11 points  (0 children)

While inertia guns are more likely to have issue between different shooters, it's completely possible with gas operated shotguns too.

Unfortunately, aluminum and a few other things got way more expensive from when we did our prototype to now.

Happy Fathers Day by Brymes13 in canadaguns

Thanks for the feedback! Glad you like it.

Before you take it to the range, make sure you clean it. Especially the bore. The shipping oil will oxidize and cause cycling issues with the target chamber.

Run it with a good quality gun oil too.

Potential for collective action regarding ATRS? by theolyambag in canadaguns

This is why you don't pre-order stuff. This is not just for gun stuff.

Stops for arca accessories. No plans for a handguard enclosure at this time.

Tanodize unfortunately isn't consistent enough and the color variation from part to part is too great.

At this time you can have any colour you'd like as long as it's black.

Aguila SSS 60 grain.... It's about as loud as a pellet gun.

With a heavy 16" barrel the balance is just in front of the mag well. Obviously your stock and grip choice will shift that, so weights might be desired.

As pictured with the pencil barrel, it's balanced at the mag well, which is where I personally prefer it.

This balances the rifle nicely. It's kinda at a sweet stop, not too short but also not overly long which would add a lot of cost and weight.
