    "New" Lee Enfield Rifle

    Slightly off - topic, but somewhat related, I wanted to get some American Eagle M1-Garand ammo, I don't know if there is any east of BC right now, the local dealer told me he could get me some for $22.00 / box, another 'hunting store', quoted me $60.00 / box for the same ammo  >:( so I ordered a...

    Well Collin I did email the public safety minister with my concerns, didn't get a response yet, I didn't use any cuss words but the "tone" was not endearing - maybe he's just too busy with other correspondence/issues.

    I have a great deal of respect for you man, you remind me of Peter, president of the Musquodoboit Valley Rifle and Revolver Club, (my current club), he's done more in his career than I can hope to pack into my life, so no hard feelings to anyone, I'm just starting into shooting again after quite...

    "New" Lee Enfield Rifle

    Well my mind is open to new ideas, I'm not  'down under' so I don't know what it's like to get your hands on ammo there, is this person an ammo retailer in Canada, and if so I would like to buy some off of him, if not, he's not of any use to me thank you, and I respect your opinions sir. - If...

    I suppose I should introduce myself, I'm from Dartmouth NS, I served for a very short time in 3RCR and 1RCR a long time ago, I was never an outstanding soldier but I managed to make it through my modest svc (4 short years -  so yes, fucking YTEP, I didn't know the dangers of signing up under...

    I suggest you contact / visit the marstar site to see what the have or do not have available; maybe it's as  I suspected, the Canadian distributors / retailers are redirecting shipments to more profitable customers, and the domestic market be damned.

    I heard all kinds of excuses, it ain't there, if you're sitting on a huge stash then you're laughing. - there is no overt 'ban' the word was the bureaucrats were making it extremely difficult to get any new shipments approved for importation due to so called 'safety' reasons.

    Well, if you can find some more power to ya, in this part of the country, there is SFA, unless you include the odd  surviving lot. Last time I checked Wolverine was 'bringing in' some PMC, this is supposed to be a bargain at almost $1.00 per shot. It ain't out there.  Plenty of discussions on...

    "New" Lee Enfield Rifle

    Hello gentlemen, I have one of these rifles, there is nothing k-mart about them, don't get in a tizzy about the hype because they are made in Vietnam, the hard facts are that AIA is in Australia, and things in oz really suck with regards to firearms, who can blame the manufacturer for keeping a...
