The USA has labelled both Canada and the EU as threats to their "National Security" in order to justify new duties declared by their military Commander-in-Chief on the international trade of steel and aluminum. So I suggest that USA made products such as firearms and ammunition should be sold exclusively within the USA so Canada and Europe can help our esteemed neighbour defend themselves and improve their national security. Sadly, I have come to the conclusion that Canadians and Europeans...

In early March, I ordered Grade 9 wood from Blaser for my R8, and some upgrades on the receiver. As of yet, I have heard nothing from Blaser on the order.

Ok just received my 1750 pelican case. So I am bringing a double rifle and a bolt action. My question is, what's the best way to pack them? Do you remove the bolt from the bolt gun?
