Beginners Questions New Member from New brunswick, Canada

Just joined on October 24, 2025. Purchased a Sig Sauer co2 M17 pellet pistol on sale at Bass Pro a couple of weeks ago. Enjoying the site. So much information, going to keep me busy for a while. In an effort to improve my shooting I purchased a Sig Sauer Air reflex off a site in Ontario, and the package was missing the airgun baseplate for my particualr model, only had the Airsoft plate. Every where I look, site is out of stock and probably not available till April next year. I have called and emailed the company to no avail, they will not respond. Was wondering if any Canadian members might have purchased this Reflex site for an Airsoft gun and have the Airgun plate left over and would sell it to me. Long shot, I know, but willing to pay a resonable price plus shipping to obtain it. Cannot return the red dot and they claim they have no more. Thank you.

Welcome, I gave it a whirl and yep, looks like you are out of luck finding your plate. Might try asking on Reddit in the airsoft groups and see if someone will part with the airgun plate.

I had a cheap fixed NcStar 4x32 compact scope on my Shin Sung Ar-6 pistol from OpticsPlanet that was not too bad. About the same price as a red dot. I went to a heavier 2-10x40 scope and that has turned out to be a mistake, at least for me.

Thanks for the feedback, It was worth a shot, have posts on a couple buy/sell forums here in Canada to no avail

Hey another fellow Canadian, Welcome to Ham,
from southern Ontario myself, had out first frost this week. No idea where to find that part either.....do you own/shoot any other airguns?

Thanks, glad to be here and find a fellow Canadian. been hoping to contact someone in a more populated area of Canada. No shooting clubs or much info or hardware available locally. Paintball is the big thing around here. I do have a couple of other air guns, a Crosman American Classic Model 1377 that I have owned for a very long time as well as a Daisy Avanti 853C that I picked up about 20 years ago. Had these for pest control. Since they are both pump single shot, they are not near as much fun as the M17.
