Traditions Kentucky Rifle Kit Review
Cabela’s has the Traditions Kentucky Rifle kit on for $399 Canadian pesos once in a while and I get tempted every time. When it last came up for sale, I couldn’t resist because I’m a sucker for a good deal. The Traditions Kentucky Rifle kit is a “finish yourself” muzzleloader percussion rifle in .50 cal…

Savage Model 24 Review
The Savage Model 24 is an over/under combo gun. It’s a 22LR rifle barrel overtop a 410 shotgun barrel, though some other similar variants like the 24V were available in heavier-duty centerfire rifle and larger shotgun gauges. They stopped making them in 2010, but released the Model 42 as its successor with polymer stocks. They’re…

Jard J180 Review
The Jard J180 is an American-made upper&lower kit for making an AR180-style rifle. Unlike many 180’s, this one uses direct impingement, just like the AR15. Why does this matter? Because it makes it easy to replace barrels with AR-compatible barrels. Most other 180’s require you to use a specific gas tube length: most are carbine…

The Type 81 LMG is a Chinese-made, semi automatic, 7.62×39 rifle available in Canada. The LMG version uses a barrel without a grenade launcher, it has a carry handle, it has a fixed bipod attached, and it has a different stock. That’s about it.

The Daniel Defense Delta 5 is their entry into the precision bolt action rifle arena. Initially offered in 308, 6.5 Creedmoor, and 6mm Creedmoor, the Delta 5 offers a lot of features in the package for less than the cost of a custom rifle. Wolverine Supplies lent me this rifle for review and they carry…

Valmet M78 LMG .308 Review
The Valmet M78 LMG is an AK pattern rifle made in Finland. They’re semi automatic, made for the civilian market and they’re non-restricted in Canada. Unfortunately, they haven’t been made in a long time, so they’re quite pricey ($5,000-10,000) and so they’re more of a curio than a practical rifle for hunting or sport shooting.…

KelTec RDB Review
The KelTec RDB is an American-made, semi-automatic, bullpup, downward ejecting, 223/556 rifle. Like many of KelTec’s designs, it’s pretty wild, doing something very novel (ejecting empties straight down). At around $1500, they’re pretty price competitive for the quality. Features Very adjustable gas block Full ambi controls Downward case ejection Non-reciprocating charging handle 5lb trigger pull…

Rossi Ranch Hand Review
The Rossi Ranch hand is a Mare’s leg reproduction lever action rifle made in Brazil. At around $700 Canadian, they’re the least expensive of the current Mare’s leg style rifles on the market. In Canada, most Mare’s leg rifles (Rossi, Henry, & Chiappa) use 12″ barrels instead of the 16″ barrels they’re limited to in…

Maple Ridge Armoury Maverick Review
The Maple Ridge Armoury Maverick is the big 308-sized brother to the smaller 223-sized MRA Renegade (review here). The MRA Maverick is a straight-pull rifle that accepts many parts from your non restricted AR10 build that was prohibited by the scumbag Liberal Party of Canada, and it lets you use your gucci parts at the…
