    Cheaper Glock Alternatives in Canada

    Glocks are expensive in Canada. A Gen5 Glock 17 will go for $850, and if you want the red dot ready MOS version, they’re $950! So I thought I’d put together a list of Glock alternatives, their current retail prices (Sep 2020, only guns that were in stock), and some thoughts on them. Right now,…

  • WS-MCR Review

    WS-MCR Review

    The WS-MCR is an improved version of the Armalite 180B. Like the 180B, it’s a non-restricted, semi-automatic, 223 cartridge family of rifles. They’re Canadian-made and they’re available in 5.56/223, 224 Valkyrie, and 7.62×39. In this case, I’m reviewing the 5.56 model, which will be a lot more popular than other chamberings. Because the firing pin…

  • Norinco JW-20 Review (Copy of Browning SA-22)

    Just recently, I reviewed the Savage 64 Takedown and some viewers rightfully called me out that it wasn’t the cheapest takedown 22 in Canada. That honor is currently held by the Norinco JW-20, a $180 copy of the Browning SA-22. So, I took the logical next step and bought one for review. I believe that…

  • Remington 581 22LR Review

    The Remington 580 series of bolt-action 22LR rifles includes the 580 (single shot), 581 (detachable magazine fed) and 582 (tube magazine fed). They were made over a pretty long run of 1967-1999 (this one was made in 1980.) There was even a 580 “smooth bore” for shooting 22 shotshells. The 580 series was a replacement…
