Aha, Guess its the mcmillan stock that makes it look like my M85 parker/hale.

Yay, my favorite threads, let's see who I can upset this time around.

RC51, some nice groups up on your workbench there, .  What kind of .223 loadout are you using in that rifle?

This is Canada, land of even crazier gun laws than California.  But we do have SOME decent points, example the 203, which isn't even considered a firearm.  Also, 3rd gen NV equipment is available to the public even though the USA doesn't export it.

All AR class rifles are in the same class, so you can have a teloscopic stock/muzzle break/14.5 barrel without it being a 200 dollar tax.  I'd rather pay the tax myself, as we can only shoot "restricted use" rifles and all handguns at an "approved" range.  Luckily I work at one, and have a membership at a couple others, but this is proving to be very, VERY expensive.  When it gets too stupid I'll sell everything that is class 3 in the USA and move south.


We've got an old Hispano 20mm in the shop here, it's not considered a firearm either, and I'm about a month away from having it in firing condition, which should be fun against old cars and large pumpkins.  I'll be sure to upload some vids of that action when it occurs.

Can you acctully export class 3 to USA?
Or to you have to move there and take it with you as "property"?


The problem here is that everything that is manufactured as a gun, (no matter what you do with it, weld it, seal it) is concidered to be a gun and you have to get a licens for it. And it has to be locked away under special conditions. But then again, once you have your "Class 3"  licens and the storage, they cant stop you from buying as many as you want. (as long as your storage is aproved)
I have laid my eyes on a 40mm bofors, but I need to be able to store it in a "vault". So for now, it has to stay where it is.

I really wish that I could post my G3, but never learned how to post pictures. (hint, hint)

RC51, that's one of John Plaster's stocks isn't it?

How do you find it for zero retention, I'm curious about one for my varmit gun.

Accuracy International stocks = 1000$ here, I don't want to spend that again.

Oh the thing works like a dream no problems
holding a 0.360" group at 100 yds w/ the win 300 mag.
the only draw back is it is HEAVY but i needed that to kill the recoil.
I paid 186.00 for mine so price is right on.
