Armscor... Is the .22tcm ever going to arrive in Canada?
More specifically to gun owner's benefit due to our laws...
Can the rifle with 17rd magazines be brought in first, before the pistol?

Just thinking about this one... At first it made sense, but then I realized that even though it launches a .22 calibre projectile, it is still center fire. Because of this I think it would be best to bring in the pistols first with 10rd mags that way the carbines can use the pistol mags rather than being limited to 5 rds as it would be if was a rifle/carbine mag.
Let me know your thoughts...

They have a bolt action rifle, so the 17rd magazines would be OK if sold as designed for the rifle.
Then later, those 17rd magazines happen to fit the pistol as well.

I doubt the rcmp will let that fly, but I can hope.
I don't really need a 17rd bolt action rifle, but I'm sure anyone who gets the handgun would like a full magazine.

Thank you sir... I have been so focused on various AR based projects lately I was thinking semi-auto rifle.

I know one of the guys at Armscorp from previous shows, so I'll be having a conversation with him for sure. If they're willing to work with us, then we'll see how it goes from there.

Full magazines are good, plus I can't think of a good reason not to have a 17rd mag in a bolt action varmint rifle.

Might be a hit with the gopher hunters, although I'd like to see some design changes to the rifle(it's a really short action, and shorter bolt lift would make it even faster, and since it's a pistol round - the barrel could be shortened on the rifle as I doubt the extra length adds much benefit)

Info on Winchester lever guns. I've already seen pics of a new '73 rifle that has me interested

As much as I would love to share photos of this awesome event, I read through their rules. Unfortunately it is against their attendance policy and the penalty, if caught, is being kicked out of this show and banned from future shows. Pretty serious repercussions. Since I am all about following the rules, I will not be taking any photos at SHOT. Sorry.

Fair enough, Thanks for trying!
