So, I've absorbed a lot of the knowledge here on the forum but I could use a clear-headed appraisal of what makes the most sense for me moving forward with my next purchase. Use case is short term SHTF with an emphasis on avoiding (run, hide, fight in that order - wife an kid along for the...

https://soldiersystems.net/2021/02/12/cz-group-announces-purchase-of-colt/ This is a good thing for Colt Canada in my opinion as a Canadian.

Just wondering if anyone has a sense of where these might fit in the overall scheme of I2 awesomeness? Have a line on some that were sold off as surplus and there are limited options for Gen 3 up here in the frozen north.

So, let's get a few things out of the way first: 1) I'm in Canada, so suppressors are out. Period. Please don't be that guy who says "get a suppressor". Yes, this is a sore point for us perennially abused Canadian gun owners. 2) I have a decent flash hider, Surefire Warcomp. Admittedly a 3...

A few hypothetical questions for the experienced here. If you are going to answer, please consider that this is my reality and it may not be yours and what I have is what I have and I don't have the ability to get more at the moment. I'm in Canada, so yeah, fun times lately. I've got a PVS-14...

Did a search and couldn't find anything on this topic so apologies in advance if this has been hashed out before. Looking to step into the night vision game with a monocular. Being located in Canada my options are VERY limited compared to the folks in the US. From the vendor I'm looking at...

After a fair bit of research the Photonis Echo tubes seem like a good value proposition for me. I'm looking for a monocular that doesn't break the bank, and I'm in Canuckistan (home of the looming gun ban!) so that means I am part of the unwashed masses that ITAR hates. So please do not tell me...

I'm not sure if any US vendors can, so this may be more for the international audience out there - what vendors do you have experience with? Act In Black seems very reputable but pricey. Found NightTec and don't know anything about them. A vendor here in Canada I don't know much about is...

I am blessed with a set of flippers for feet, so what are you similarly afflicted folks using for a genuinely 4E wide boot? I'm looking for something without goretex or other waterproof lining and ideally light and mid-height. Think Salomon Quest or the like. Oh, and I'm in Canada, so super...

Didn't see a thread on this so I thought I'd throw this out there to see what the Hide thinks: https://www.area419.com/product/hellfire-lfs/ Here's the money shot (directly pulled from the A419 website - mods please advise if this is not okay):

Haven't found too much on the Spuhr TRG/T3x Hunting Series Mounts, so just wondering if anyone has experience with them and in particular how well they are suited to PRS style shooting. It seems to me that reducing the number of interfaces between the scope and rifle from two (rings, base) to...

Didn't see this mentioned anywhere here yet, so I thought I would point out that Ultimatum Precision (makers of the Deadline and action for the JP bolt guns) is close to dropping a new action with a Tikka T3 footprint. Only details so far are from their Instagram, which I'm including below...

Anyone have a lead on where to track down a Wilcox PVS-15 or PVS-18 dovetail shoe part 14003G01 or 14003P01 or 14001P01?? I'm n Canada and the ITAR fairy is making life hell. To be clear, I am not looking to bypass ITAR, I'm just trying to find someone who can actually ship one to me with the...

Looking for a long gun white/IR light and wondering what is recommended by the Hide? I'm guessing the kind is still the Vampire Scout lights but the Inforce WMLX Gen 2 is pretty cheap, so I am tempted to go that way. (I'm up here in Canada, aka the land that ITAR forgot, so no used options for...

Does anyone have a lead on where I could find the specifications for the Aimpoint ACRO mount - I just ordered one and will want to get my non-MOS Glock 17 milled for it. Since it is pretty new (especially up here in Canada) I suspect may of the milling and Cerakote shops will not have seen one...

I pre-ordered the new MDT vertical grip a few weeks back and they came in yesterday. Haven't had any range time, so this will be a quick and dirty on first impressions for now. I ordered two and have one on my precision bolt gun and one on my precision AR. First up is my Tikka CTR in an MDT HS3...

I'm looking at running a switch barrel setup on a Tikka T3 action and I just want to make sure that if I have the factory barrel removed, the threads cleaned and so on that there will be no issues with re-installing the same barrel to the action and maintaining headspace. A witness mark on the...

Just wondering how well chambering and extraction are with the T3 action. What magazines work? I've heard that the Magpul AICS PMAGS seem to work well. Also, am I crazy to think about 6mm BR for PRS? My rationale is that it has pretty good barrel life (reported 2500ish+), very low recoil, uses...

I am putting together an AR-15 upper with a Rainier Arms Match 12.5" barrel and a Noveske KX5 (in Canada, so no SBR issues!) and I'm wondering if an adjustable gas block (have a Seekins) is a good idea. I seem to recall mention that adjustable blocks made little sense on barrels under 14.5", and...
