What's in the Shop This Week

Just wondering how the new bill C-71 would effect you doing bolt fluting?As i would only be sending you the bolt you would not have a serial number ?Just wondering??Thanks
P.S your work and photo's look great keep up the great work.
 
As atrocious as these new regs are, they still ONLY pertain to a firearm, which is the receiver. PERIOD. As soon as a receiver lands in my lap, I'm obligated to record all the new info. A firearm PART (any part other than the receiver) is not the firearm and therefore, is unaffected by these new regulations.

Past that, Lets be frank, Nobody yet knows how these rules are going to be interpreted by the RCMP. So ask me again in a year and we'll know better how they require things interpreted... However, the letter I received clearly differentiates "possession of" and "transferring" as two separate categories: performing work on, and buying/selling. Unless you are selling/buying your firearm to/from my business, a transfer has not taken place. I would need to record the pertinent info but NOT required to report to the CFO.

Wait, it means you have to in effect keep the same record as a new NR sale rifle for every time a rifle comes into your possession?

Yes - BUT:

The firearms and other info does not go to the RCMP/CFP, it is just retained by the shop doing the work/repair.
They can keep it on a roll of toilet paper if they want. Nothing in the law states how the records are to be kept, just that they must be retained for 20 years.


On May 18, 2022, changes to sections 23 (Authorization to transfer non-restricted firearms) and 58.1 (Conditions - licence issued to business) of the Firearms Act; section 24.1 (Conditions) of the Firearms Licences Regulations; and sections 5 and 6 (Information Relating to Transferee's Licence), 7 (Period of Validity of Reference Number), 10, 11, and 12 of the Conditions of Transferring Firearms and Other Weapons Regulations, will come into force.

These changes will result in the addition to your licence of new conditions related to the retention and preservation of records of non-restricted firearms.

Please find below the business licence conditions that will be added to your current licence as of May 18, 2022.

A notice, with these new conditions, will be mailed to your business address.

If you have questions or would like additional information, please call 1 800 731-4000.

Conditions

Effective May 18, 2022 :

(1) The business must record and, for a period of 20 years beginning on the day on which the record is created, keep the following information relating to the business' possession and disposal of all non-restricted firearms:
(a) the classification of the firearm;
(b) the date and an indication of any business activity related to the possession or the disposal of the firearm, including, if applicable, its purchase, sale, bartering, gifting, consignment, importation, exportation, repair, alteration, deactivation, destruction, manufacture, pawn broking, storage and display;
(c) the firearm's manufacturer, make, model, type, action, gauge or calibre, barrel length and, in the case of a fixed magazine, magazine capacity;
(d) all serial numbers displayed on the firearm's frame or receiver;
(e) the name and address of the individual or business to which the firearm was sent, or from which the firearm was received, in the course of any business activity referred to in paragraph (b) other than an activity that relates to a transfer of the firearm, if applicable; and,
(f) if the business caused the firearm to be shipped by another person, the name of the shipper or carrier, their licence number or permit number, if applicable, and the package tracking number of the shipped firearm.

(2) The business must record and, for a period of 20 years from the day on which the business transfers a non-restricted firearm, keep the following information in respect of the transfer:
(a) the reference number issued by the Registrar;
(b) the day on which the reference number was issued;
(c) the transferee's licence number; and
(d) the firearm's make, model and type and, if any, its serial number.

(3) The business must, unless otherwise directed by a chief firearms officer, transmit any records containing the information referred to at conditions (1) or (2) above to the Registrar of Firearms if it is determined that the business will cease to be a business.

Switching things up for a change, here's a pistol slide I did some milling work on...






Also a thread protector on a CF barrel...




And finally some deep helical fluting on a 1022 barrel.
 
Really nice work, I'm definitely a fan on the angled two piece bases too. Is there enough heft on your ss bottom metal to support a 3" section of arca-swiss forward of the front action screw, if you were to integrate it as one piece?
 
Ruger007: I get asked this question often enough that I should probably consider it... A self timing brake is a product I've perceived as already being well supported by several manufacturers. Its claim to fame is that a person can install it on the kitchen table and doesn't need to send his rifle into a smith (personally I think a crush washer accomplishes the same thing). What would you like to see in a self timing brake that isn't already readily available?

Fisherguy55: That is a very good idea! My bottom metal would certainly support it well enough, although I feel that would be a feature better suited on AICS magazine pattern bottom metal over the OEM pattern ones I currently offer. ( AICS BM is something I intend to make in the future, although I have enough developmental irons in the fire at the moment.) I could certainly do up a CAD model for a one-off if this is something you are interested in. You can email me at: pcook338@gmail.com

I did a batch of bluing this morning...


Also finished up this run of stainless brakes.


And I am currently working on another run of Tikka Bottom metal!
 
Some Bottom Metal progress...


It may look not look like much, but engraving a 3d surface like this is reasonably involved. .001" is a mile here. I've written just over 700 lines of code for this, with each character being controlled by a variable. This allows me to adjust the depth of each letter to compensate for variations of the hand polished surface.


Blued 4140 Tikka Bottom metal anyone?


One is currently unspoken for, I have a few Stainless available.
