    FN .30-'06

    Sounds like it might be a Fusil Automatique Mle 30. Basically an FN made version of the Browning M1918 BAR. It was made in a variety of calibres before the Second World War. Incidently, the SAFN 49 was designed before the war but wasn't put into production until after the end of the war. I had...

    How on Earth did a Czech get our uniform?

    There seems to be some misapprehension about the legal availability of CADPAT and other current issue items on the civi market. In the eastern Ontario area alone, there have been tri-walls of "textiles" sold by Crown Assets mainly consisting of CADPAT TW clothing. Mixed in with the faded and...

    POST YOUR FAVORITE RIFLE HERE

    The AG 42B was my first centerfire semi, bought it in 1971. That 6.5x55 round was awsome, but at first all I had to feed the rifle with was commercial Dominion ammunition. Paid $65 for the rifle and $40 for 50 rds. I found a supply of milsurp rounds not long after for about a tenth of the cost. ...

    TLG is correct, there is no Field Marshal in the CF and the highest military position is CDS with the rank of General. However for political purposes the Governor General is the Commander in Chief of the CF. If he/she whishes to wear uniform, the GG can either wear the rank of Governor General...

    Anyone know what kind of snake this is?

    It's a small pic, but it definitly looks like a Fox Snake. The Massasauga Rattler has a slightly  different camo pattern, and a broader head. I had Fox and Corn snakes when I was a kid, I think the Fox is an endangered  species in Ontario now.

    Peaceniks Try Direct Mail on Vandoos Destined for AFG

    According to  news reports these creeps targeted a small area of Valcartier with a mass mailing. Evidently they didn't have individual members names and addresses. Which doesn't mitigate the probable crime of encitement to mutiny...

    Boot, General Purpose (Mk III acting/interim replacement)

    The two boots by Terra evidently were simply pattern trials from 2002. The Cadpat AR boots were never really a starter, I think after the first two steps in the sand the camo pattern would dissapear under the dust.  I guess the current pattern desert boots made by Boulet were considered to be...

    Best Marches

    For pipes, The March of The Cameron Men (but as a Cameron and former CHofO I might be a bit prejudiced), and of course,  Black Bear.    For brass slow and quick marches there's Scipio, The Dutchess of Kent, and The Grenadier's Slow March. Lutzow's Wild Hunt tops my list for Rifle/Light Infantry...

    Welrod

    If the can is intact and you are a gun collector, it's worth about 5 years in Kingston Pen. If you are a Toronto gang banger you might get a suspended sentance if you are unlucky. Seriously, if a registered one with an inactive supressor showed up on the market in Canada there are collectors...

    Merged Quotes and Sayings Thread; some useful, some junk

    Summer, 1975...  CFB Ottawa (N). At that time it was the home of the PDD, better known as the Changing Of The Guard. A GGFG Lt. is walking by the parade square.  RCR MWO on the other side of the square salutes the Lt. The Lt, his mind no doubt occupied with matters of importance such as "it's...
