Anyone know any place in Canada to order a S&W Indy repl

Post by HigHurtenflurst »

Apparently there are some restrictions on shipping replica guns into Canada; All the ebay and other sellers I've looked at for prop guns/replicas in the US and abroad say they're unable to ship to Canada. Must be our wonderfully tight border in action.... :roll: So I'm just wondering if anyone knows a place IN Canada that sells a decent or even ####-##### close Indy weapon.

Thanks!

I swear, it's easier to get the real thing here, and CHEAPER than a replica. I kid you not.

You can get a decent sized and proper shaped cap-gun pistol at Dollar Stores north of the 49th if you just need a holster filler. I'll be painting mine up this weekend and posting pix comparing it to a new one soon.

Hig,

I have that same problem, too. Currently I am forced to go the 'Dollar Store' route, but I have heard that it is possible to purchase a real gun, and have the gunsmith deactivate it, and it is possible to own without a weapons permit...but so far have not been able to validate this claim.

Man oh man.... Well, at least our uber-restrictive gun laws have completely and utterly wiped gun-violence and gun-related crimes from the face of the Canadian landscape.... :roll: :roll: :roll:

Yup, the dollar store it is, then.... :(

Short of a political discussion, we too have "gun free zones" in America where shootings still somehow happen. :-k ](*,)
