Meet the Canadian Rangers’ new Sako rifle, built to defend against large carnivores, extreme temperatures! - Postmedia News | June 25, 2015 2:39 PM ET



The Canadian Rangers — a sub-component of the Canadian Armed Forces Reserve that patrols the north and other remote areas — are finally getting new rifles to replace the aging current model, the Lee-Enfield No. 4. There have long been calls to replace the decidedly vintage Lee-Enfields, which in various incarnations were standard issue for the British military from 1895 to 1957 (the No. 4 model dates to WWII). Age, and the scarcity of replacement parts, have made the Lee-Enfield difficult, if not impossible, to maintain.

With C-42 expected to pass into law any day, the inability to challenge the CFSC and CRFSC exams is going to become reality. However, BC-based firearms safety instructors at Silvercore will be launching the next best thing shortly with Canada’s first web-enabled CFSC and CRFSC tools.

Gas vs. Inertia Semi-Auto Shotguns - By Kyle Eggimann - Lucky Gunner

Gas vs. Inertia Semi-Auto Shotguns - By Kyle Eggimann - Lucky Gunner




In my last article about scatterguns I asserted that the semi-automatic shotgun most often represents the best value in terms of build quality, functionality, and overall cost.

This week, I wanted to go a little more in-depth and examine the two main types of semi-auto shotguns and the things you might want to consider before buying one.

Basically, the two main types of auto-loading shotguns available now are either gas-operated or inertia-operated. Each system has its own strengths and peculiarities and these actually have a pretty big impact on how the respective guns feel and function. With several excellent choices to consider on both sides of the debate, here’s a closer look at what makes these guns tick, and what that means for you, the shooter.

Military Sidearms: Overhyped and Overrated By Kyle Eggimann - Luckygunner

Military Sidearms: Overhyped and Overrated  By Kyle Eggimann - Luckygunner

There’s something really special about the way we perceive military service pistols. They tend to take on such strong identities and somehow epitomize the conflicts they were used in. One look at a German Luger or an old M1911 and you can’t help but think back to the World Wars. The funny thing about this is that even though we so strongly equate military pistols to specific conflicts and time periods, they see incredibly limited use compared to just about everything else.

It seems like every couple of years there’s a big fuss over what the U.S. military should get to replace their current service pistols. Lately the hot topics have been Beretta’s failure to get a contract for their M9A3, and the adoption of a Colt Rail Gun derivative called the M45A1 CQBP (Close Quarters Battle Pistol) by the Marines to replace their aging MEU(SOC) 1911’s.
