Greetings from the Stampede City

Good day all,
This website has come up numerous times when researching my current project which is restoring Canadian military C3 rifles which are based on the Parker Hale 1200TX rifle. I have a connection as my father shot 3 Palma Matches for Canada and that rifle was supplied in 1969 for competitors to use.
Personally I shot a lot of smallbore at the international ‘Games’ level.
I’m not sure what the shipping rules are between our countries so any light shed on that topic is appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your assistance

Hello @Saabu people in the UK may know the C3 Canadian sniper rifle as the Parker Hale M82. these were fitted with Pecar scopes and used by various Police forces here for the sniper role before being updated with the Parker Hale M85.

There is a website in America called Snipers Hide and there are several threads detailing how people are building C3/ M82 rifles using donor 1200 TX rifles.

Good luck in your search and would look forward to seeing photos of the finished rifle.

Regards Rookandrabbit.
