I understand that Canada have more strict policies on civilians owning firearms and I would like to know if there are other Canadians that could share their experiences with owning, obtaining, and maintaining their firearms

2019-02-04 17:14:28 UTC

2019-02-04 17:15:49 UTC  

What is a garbage rod

2019-02-04 17:17:06 UTC

Thank you for your input

2019-02-04 17:58:39 UTC  

@Darn I'll give a serious answer. Garbage rod is slang for a Mosin Nagant. Barring that, I suggest an SKS or an SVT, as I understand you Leaves have reasonably priced SVTs. If none of those sound good, Norinco makes an M14 copy for the Canadian civvie market.

2019-02-04 18:00:45 UTC  

Nasty Eastern Block shit is very cheap up here. My first SKS cost $100

2019-02-04 18:01:02 UTC  

From a gun store no less.

2019-02-04 18:01:40 UTC  

@Darn what do you need to know in particular?

2019-02-04 18:02:50 UTC  

There's always a Canadian thread on /k/

2019-02-04 18:02:57 UTC  

The canucks have a discord too

2019-02-04 18:39:11 UTC  

I'd like to know which firearm I could get started with

2019-02-04 18:39:24 UTC  

Something that a beginner could use and maintain and learn about

2019-02-04 18:46:43 UTC  

In that case, do you want a bolt action? Mosin, although they kick hard, especially the carbines. If you want a semi-auto though, SKS is the way to go.

2019-02-04 18:47:50 UTC  

Russian guns are designed for serfs whose life experience before conscription was pulling onions out of the ground or hitting things with a hammer in a factory.

2019-02-04 18:48:14 UTC  

Get a .22 in something

2019-02-04 18:50:02 UTC  

^^

2019-02-04 18:50:14 UTC  

People need to quit suggesting milsurp as a first gun

2019-02-04 18:50:31 UTC  

BUY SKS

2019-02-04 18:50:50 UTC  

don’t actually

2019-02-04 18:51:47 UTC  

I see what you're saying Runes, but both of those guns do fit what he's asking for. Besides, don't Canucks have a limit on the number of weapons they can have?

2019-02-04 18:53:10 UTC  

I am pretty sure with my license there'd be a limit on how many I have

2019-02-04 18:53:30 UTC  

And I am very interested in the bolt action design

2019-02-04 18:54:04 UTC  

Get a .22 then milsurp

2019-02-04 18:54:35 UTC  

Just get a 10/22

2019-02-04 18:55:06 UTC  

@Darn I’d recommend an AR-15 to be honest

2019-02-04 18:56:04 UTC  

Is that the civilian sporting rifle version?

2019-02-04 18:56:13 UTC  

Simple to maintain, parts are everywhere, along with mags and ammo

2019-02-04 18:56:31 UTC  

Yeah

2019-02-04 18:57:08 UTC  

My first gun was a M&P-15 1.0 with no forward assist and with a brass deflector

2019-02-04 18:59:14 UTC  

Thanks for the suggestions guys

2019-02-04 19:01:35 UTC  

In a following note, which of these shops are reputable :
1.) Bass pro shops
2.) Firearms outlet canada
3.) Buds gun shop

2019-02-04 19:02:55 UTC  

These are the shops that are practical for me to visit (along with a few small local stores). What are your opinions on them?

2019-02-04 19:09:10 UTC  

@Darn you have your regular PAL correct? So you’re limited to non-restricted stuff. No limit to how many you acquire as long as you store them properly.

2019-02-04 19:09:52 UTC  

@Wilkie Thank you for pitching in, I assume you're a leaf?

2019-02-04 19:10:14 UTC  

Most dude bros up here will state that the SKS is the quintessential first gun to buy, as they’re cheap as fuck and fun to shoot.

2019-02-04 19:10:18 UTC  

Yep, from Manitoba

2019-02-04 19:10:46 UTC  

And *reliablish*

2019-02-04 19:11:31 UTC  

Alright, I think Darn is in good hands here. We have a few other Leaves on here, @Reichtangle and @GhostPhail are the ones who come to mind immediately.
