Meet the Canadian Rangers’ new Sako rifle, built to defend against large carnivores, extreme temperatures! – Postmedia News | June 25, 2015 2:39 PM ET
The Canadian Rangers — a sub-component of the Canadian Armed Forces Reserve that patrols the north and other remote areas — are finally getting new rifles to replace the aging current model, the Lee-Enfield No. 4. There have long been calls to replace the decidedly vintage Lee-Enfields, which in various incarnations were standard issue for the British military from 1895 to 1957 (the No. 4 model dates to WWII). Age, and the scarcity of replacement parts, have made the Lee-Enfield difficult, if not impossible, to maintain.
