    Norinco Type 97 Review

    The Norinco T97 (or Type 97) has been a 4 year process. Canada Ammo originally attempted to import them in bulk, but was stymied by a very late process RCMP review that found it was too easily converted to fully automatic. A renewed effort by North Sylva redesigned the trigger mechanism to eliminate this issue…

    Marlin Classic Model 1895 Mini Review

I won’t be speaking…

    Browning X-Bolt Review

    I’ve wanted to do this review for a while now and after a recent outing with the x-bolt, I had enough fresh in my mind to bring up about this rifle and do the review. What is the Browning XBolt for? Seems like a silly question, but it’s not. The Browning X-Bolt is NOT a…

  • Norinco M305 Shorty Review

    Norinco M305 Shorty Review

    Not long after the first Polytech or Norinco M305 rifles (See my regular length Norinco M14S review here) arrived in Canada, there were those who wanted to chop the 22″ barrels down to the legal limit of 18.5″ to make them a bit handier. This involved a few tricks, because it’s not as straightforward as…
