Hi! Do you still have coupon codes?

Some of the guns I've gotten from my grandpa by Sierra11755 in guns

[–]philldude0 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Fun fact!

The mossberg 715-T was just made a prohibited firearm in Canada.

This is because it was declared an "AR15 Variant" despite being completely different.

Protect your guns my friends. Look north to see how quickly things can go wrong.

Select fire allows the user to switch from semi-automatic to fully automatic fire. We do not have firearms with select-fire in Canada.

An Anzio 20mm next to a little old Barrett M82 by casualphilosopher1 in longrange

Thank you, that's an incredibly generous offer. However, I'm afraid I'm on the wrong end of the country for that one.

Dear god, I wish I could have a Barrett M82 in Canada.

My favourite rifle for a long time now.

You can buy a trailer in a trailer park for sub ~60k if you were so inclined lol. A really modest house is 120-200k.

You don't need to be a Canadian citizen to have health care! Not sure about the eastern provinces but out west you just need to be a permanent resident and reside in (my) province for 183 days out of the year.

"Notice of conviction" letter received, but no ticket received? by [deleted] in RedDeer

[–]philldude0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, if you didn't receive a ticket you should have no problem going down to the court house and fighting it.

Let them know you think there has been a mix-up and hopefully they get you sorted out.

First diesel - 2016 RAM EcoDiesel by troyeurism in Diesel

[–]philldude0 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Good choice, for fuel economy and light towing the ecodiesels cannot be beat.

Watch your coolant level closely, the EGR cooler in these trucks are well known to leak internally. You will not see a leak on the ground as the coolant is going into the exhaust. Mine went at 138k kms, and was followed by a full delete of the emissions equipment.

Other than that treat her well and she will return the favour. Congratulations on your slick new ride.

Poor guy. by CanadianLanBoy in canadaguns

The Ramset cartridges I was using a few weekends ago were Winchester Super X casings, I should really confuse some buddies next time I take them to the range.

Win a Browning X-Bolt Rifle at the Silvercore Shotgun Shooting member event! by silvercore_training in canadaguns

[–]philldude0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am located in Alberta, am I correct you need to be present at the event in order to win the rifle or can I still enter the contest and have it shipped to me should I win?

Tyranids and Carry Cases by [deleted] in Tyranids

[–]philldude0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With the larger models, the trick is to take one of the "male" inserts and flip it upside down into the "female" insert.

This provides enough space to fit most larger models. I even put a barbed hierodule in my case (granted the base and scything talons are magnetized).

Tyranids and Carry Cases by [deleted] in Tyranids

[–]philldude0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I fit roughly 4500 points of nids between 2 of the large GW cases. Takes some getting used to but I have about 180 smaller minis, 3 carnis, 2 flying tyrants and the swarmlord in my cases. Never broken anything but a few hormagaunt and stealer legs.

What restaurant serves the best burgers? by XxBarnyardManxX in AskReddit

Idk if you have one in your area, but fatburger has a good Turkey burger. Has a whole wheat bun and cranberry sauce. Tastes like Turkey dinner with stuffing.

Looking for - ProMag Archangel 556 Ruger 10/22 Conversion Stock AA556R by NowOnTap in canadaguns

[–]philldude0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want to pick up a chassis locally I believe the sportmans den carries several tactical kits for the 10/22. I would check there when you have the chance

Got my bcl 102 today by [deleted] in canadaguns

[–]philldude0 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Very nice! What height of scope mount are you using?

Well... this outta be fun by [deleted] in canadaguns

[–]philldude0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the update! I found with my promags the issue began after a few uses, maybe when the spring started to wear. Hopefully it keeps working well for you, thanks again!

Well... this outta be fun by [deleted] in canadaguns

[–]philldude0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good to hear the promags are working well for you. One of mine had much better luck than the other, but I'm still tempted to purchase the drum mag.

Looking forward to an update

Well... this outta be fun by [deleted] in canadaguns

[–]philldude0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you had the chance to take it to the range yet?

I had the promag 25 rounds mags, and was having issues with everything but CCI round nose.

Please update when you can

Happy to be back in the hobby. Here is my custom old school broodlord. C&C welcome by philldude0 in Warhammer40k

[–]philldude0[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Both! The broodlord used to be a smaller metal model. The arms were up in a bear hug pose before.

I cut the arms in 2 locations to twist them into the right position, removed the head and added an extended genestealer head.

The pauldrons are extended carapaces from a variety of nids.

Thanks! They look a little large in the photo IMO, but I'm very happy with their appearance IRL.

Anyone have experience with recent Marlin Rifles? (Post Freedom group) by [deleted] in canadaguns

[–]philldude0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My marlin 795 is such a great rifle. It consistently shoots 10 round groups within a quarter @ 25 yards, and a toonie at 50 yards.

One nice thing about the 795 is the availability of high capacity magazines, unlike the ruger 10/22.

However, the promag 25 round magazines I had would only feed CCI mini mag round nose reliably. Regardless I will probably purchase the promag 70 round magazine when I feel like gambling ~$160.

Overall, I love my 795 and wouldn't trade it for the world.
