Re: SPRING SHOOTING CONTEST DETAILS

I am interested as I own both a black powder musket (flintlock smoothbore) AND 2 Russian milsurps.

However, Spring in Canada is still a long way off !!!

Snow in Manitoba is at an all-time high and things won't start warming up for another 3 weeks at least !!!

Re: SVT-40 at the range and shooting it for the first time

I snagged mine for $199 when Lever Arms in British Columbia was running a special. I ended buying two... one for me and for my son who is in the Air Force and loves guns as much as I do.

Re: SVT-40

Hello from Canada !! I stumbled on this website while looking for SVT-40 images... I recently purchased a '43 Tula SVT-40 and will be firing it for the first time this weekend. I already own a '34 Tula hex Mosin Nagant so an SVT-40 was the perfect complement. I'm also happy to see Dutch representati...
