@Wilkie that is correct

Wilkie
2019-02-04 19:12:16 UTC  

But if you’re looking to hunt or do anything practical with it there are better options obviously

I'm just looking to get a few shots off at a range

Wilkie

Yeah. Nothing wrong with a nice non- bubba’d SKS then.

Darn
2019-02-04 19:15:58 UTC  

From what I am seeing online the Russian surplus SKS rifles seem to be the cheapest. Is there anything wrong with that?

Wilkie

Know that our laws are absolutely retarded when it comes to things like ARs. One can own an AR easily with an RPAL, the licence that allows one to own a “restricted” firearm, but you can only shoot it at an established range. On the other hand you can get several firearms that are like ARs, like the XCR which are non-restricted for some reason, so you can hunt with them or do whatever..

As far as I know the Russian ones are your best bet, but I’m not an expert on the SKS

Yugos aren't chromed.

FireRising

You **must** clean them after every shooting because of this.

Darn
2019-02-04 19:18:51 UTC  

I'm assuming that designated ranges are quite sparse

Wilkie
2019-02-04 19:18:59 UTC  

There are lots and lots of Norinko ones around Canada as well.

FireRising
2019-02-04 19:19:08 UTC  

Chinese Norincos are decent from what I hear.

Since you guys are canadians, which stores do you guys recommend

Wilkie
2019-02-04 19:20:07 UTC  

I do most of my buying from Wolverine Supplies

Coolio

How are the larger sporting shops like Cabela's and bass pro

Wilkie
2019-02-04 19:22:29 UTC  

Rampart and CTC Supplies are great too. I wish I had a list handy.
Cabela’s is ok I think. Haven’t been to one in years

Big box stores have good prices but support your local gun store first

Wilkie
2019-02-04 19:23:05 UTC  

I’d price out what you want to make sure Cabelas isn’t killing you in the mark up.

Wilkie
2019-02-04 19:23:11 UTC  

Yep that’s good advice

Darn
2019-02-04 19:23:58 UTC  

Gotcha, thanks guys.
