I’m curious as to where “The 32” are by province.

I remember seeing one being sold for $600 on the Exchange a while ago that had a part stripped from it and am still kicking myself for not grabbing it for the simple fact of having two. There was another one not to long ago also that went up for $1250 and was gone fairly quick, being that low $ for their rarity was surprising.

This got me thinking that considering the demand for “The 32” rifles I would like to see the owners say what province their rifle is in and how they find the rifle themselves and if they need to be moved on we could potentially move them towards people we know that have shot them and truly want one rather then up for random grabs on the Exchange from flippers who just want to buy,flip,trade with anything and everything. This will help focus the value and also help out the guy selling his to cover unseen expenses as that would be the only reason to sell such a rare firearm

Mine is located in Saskatchewan and kicks like a mule. I haven’t sourced a slip on pad for it yet but that is definitely on the list. I put a NOS brass oiler and pull through in the but stock that fits perfectly and plan on getting a nice piece of paper to have the original owner sign along with my self and anyone after me but don’t plan on selling it anytime soon
 
I have 2 of the heavy barrelled B2 rifles here in Southern Ontario. Both are in nearly new condition with original finishes. I've never fired either.

I've misplaced the scope mounts during my last move over 4 years ago. I know the container that I stored them in and I know I wouldn't have left it behind in my last place. I was very thorough checking every nook and cranny in all the cupboards and closets.

I have them somewhere. They'll turn up eventually.

On a couple of Lee Enfields (No.4, No.5) I've used a cheap slip on pad I got at Canadian Tire (Yukon brand) and a Beartooth adjustable (neoprene cover with several closed-cell foam inserts of different thicknesses you can combine to adjust fit.) Both did what they should. Contact me if you want to try them.
 
A cheap rubber type might develop a hollow behind the cheek riser or might be elastic enough to conform. I think the Beartooth would be more suitable.
 
I picked up one of the caldwell shoulder ones you just strap on to your body. It's about a half inch thick. I have a bum shoulder but I like my milsurp calibers. It works like a freakin champ and doesn't mess with the LOP in any real amount. And more importantly works with all my guns. I recommend that one for you.

And on a side note I wish I'd bought an AIA years ago, but alas...
 
That’s what I’m shooting for here is to connect people that are specifically looking for one with someone looking to pass one on. I’m also curious where (The 32) are located around Canada

The sporter is the B1.... anyone have an AIA with a mismatched bolt?
I bought one used a few years back that shoots great but the original owner must have had a few and got the bolt's mixed up..... :)
 
What kind of range have you shot out to? I want to try reaching out to 800yrds with my B2 and if that goes good stretch it out to 1000yrds. I put a Millet LRS on it which I’m pretty sure should do the job

Iam fortunate that I've got a range in my back yard that goes 2 miles lol
 
I’m going to keep up on this post to try to rough locate as many as The 32 as possible as I’m sure the people that have them aren't always on the forums. I think it will take that passing but glance to start to locate them
 
I've got 2 of the B2 match rifles. One M10 mk4 as well.
I do have a few of the scope rails available, if anyone needs one.
It's important to keep the mags with the rifles. They are fitted for each one.

Great thread idea OP.

The B3 rifles are the most rare. Surplus Minigun barrels.

I believe that at least 2 of the B2 model that were originally imported into Canada made their way into the USA.
