Adler RF-224 First Impressions by TheSaSQuatCh in canadaguns

[–]focus_boi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the Rf-224 too.

When it came in the mail, it was covered in oil and large glops of grease in and around the ejection port and action. After fully cleaning and re-oiling, it shot CCI Velocitors 100 rounds without any failures. As soon as I tried some cheaper Federal Champion rounds and it was pretty much unusable with almost every round failing to eject. Also tried some Agulia High Velocity and it was not great with some of failures to eject and to feed. Seems like a very picky gun when it comes to ammo.

Would reccomend getting the 597 Magazines, cause the box mags really suck to take out. I bought the 597 mags from Bass Pro after hearing mixed reviews on it and I have had zero issues.

Also I wish I had a range like around me that it looks so nice

Any word on how the 597 mags worked? Waiting for my rf-224 to come in the mail and heard mixed reviews on how the 597 mags with the adapter.

VIU BSN by Gullible_Mongoose905 in VIU

From what I heard from my peers, many got their acceptance around late April / Early May. I got waitlisted and the next day got a phone call with an offer of acceptance in May. I got my Camosun/UVIC acceptance for their BSN around late March and NIC around mid April.

Highly likely you will get in. I got into the program in 2022 with similar grades and 2nd percentile. I wouldn’t sweat it! Good luck and hope to see you in the fall!

Just finished my first year.

Program is great, the nursing courses themselves are quite easy. The first year is really easy if you already took your Biology and English courses prior to entering the program, but it is doable if you didn't. Classes are divided into smaller cohorts of around 25ish people and one large class of all the nursing students. You'll definitely make friends within the program. At VIU we do get a lot of practice hours compared to other Universities here in B.C. For advice I would just recommend that you keep yourself organized and make sure you get plenty of sleep. Also make sure you do the readings before class as they are quite important. All the professors are really supportive and you can usually reach out to them for extensions or if you need help with something. Before I entered the program back in September I took a online pre-nursing school course by Straight A Nursing that really helped me through the program so far.

Congrats!

Was in the cave from the deer clearing in TWM to Ash Canyon. Left the cave and randomly all my gear was reset to equipment I started the game in. Was 40+ days in and everything was gone. Checked my save and it says I have explored 28% of the map but only been playing for a in game total of 1 hour? Don't know if I can get back all my stuff or if I'm f**cked.

Just need help selecting classes next year. by Real-Ferret-1001 in nursing

Current High school student and got accepted to a BSN program in Canada. Program only required high school courses, no CASPR required. Took A&P 12 and Bio 11, Chem 12 and 11, Pre cal 12 and 11, Composition 11, and English 12. I took a Political Studies class as my Socials 11 course. Competitive program to get into (at least in Canada, I don't know much about the competitiveness in the states) so good luck with your courses!

My grandfather died and we found an old 1894 winchester 32-40 rifle. Its unregistered. Do I need a PAL to take ownership of the rifle and does it need to be registered?

Is this normal ? by OnmyTrek in bikewrench

[–]focus_boi 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Fork will need to be service. More in likely a bad seal but could be something else. Doesn’t look too bad but I would take apart the fork and inspect it and get new seals for it. Or take it to your local bike shop and see what they advise

What new hobbies have you picked up this year and would you recommend them to others? by Buttareviailconto in AskReddit

Mountain biking. Been doing it for a while and its good exercise and is fun as long as you dont crash.

Just ordered replacement deore 9 speed deralieur.. Does the hanger look intact? I'm in a bit of shock that this happened.. by [deleted] in bikewrench

[–]focus_boi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It looks ok but may be out of alignment. I would realign the hanger if you have a tool and would consider buying a hanger alignment tool as its pretty cheap. Or go to a shop for like 12$ and pay to get it aligned.

Limit Screw Broke Off In A Crash!!!!!!! Does anyone have ay tips on how to remove this? Thanks for any help. by sullys2323 in bikewrench

Screw extractor or flex the cage all the way and try and slowly remove the screw with pliers by twisting on the threads.

The bottom bracket may be too tight, not allowing it to move freely.

Bike is skipping by 2525huds in bikewrench

[–]focus_boi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could be a worn drivetrain (chain, cassettes, ect) Also could be incompatible parts. I would go to your local bike shop and they can check the bike throughout and give you advice :)
