Default Looking for a few Ruger 10/22 chamber flags

Hey guys, as the title says, I'm looking for some chamber flags. You know those little yellow things that nobody knows what they are and nobody uses? I'm looking for three of them and I'm in Calgaty.

I ordered them from Amazon. Arrived 2 days later and were pretty inexpensive.

For the 10/22 I just chopped the chamber piece down a little off one end on my kitchen cutting board to make them fit a little better.

WE have made them with a bit of red taped and a tie wrap for people that did not have them but required them forca shoot.

I recommend a large size plastic cable tie or making one from the plastic portion of a shotgun shell.

I also make them. "practice" golf ball (the ones with all the holes} thread some weed eater line through them and leave about a foot hanging out. Work real good. Fit every thing.

911 supply has them for $2/ea...I grabbed a half dozen in there today. I haven’t tried them in a .22, they may be a bit large, but that’s very easy to fix, and they’re cheap

That’s the option that works the best for me so far. Thank you
