Question about buying from states

Hello all, I have read the FAQ section and did not find anything in detail regarding purchasing airsoft from the states. If I were to purchase a KSC System 7 USP 45 from a website like AirsoftGI (just an example) which is located in the states, would the gun be confiscated by customs due to it lacking a clear body??

I want to buy from a Canadian store, but they do not have this model that I'm looking for, if you guys have any websites to recommend pls share!!

Thank You

1. Confiscated, yes!
2. Get age verified. There might be a chance that someone is selling a ksc system 7 usp 45.
3. You can hire someone to get that specific item you want once you get age verified.

this one

and this

basically, "purchasing" from outside of Canada = "importing".

That's one way of putting it. I'll need to remember that.

And, as everyone has already said, no, you cannot import from the States, and you will be fined and/or confined if you try to do so.


That criminal record never looks good on the ol' resume.

I was also wondering if those 177 CO2 air guns would be possible.

.177/4.5mm is fine but if you want to do that you should know you can't play with it with us only target shoot and whatever.

Also make sure it's a 495 FPS version otherwise you'll need a PAL for the 500+ FPS versions.

Also Airgun forum is probably more the place for that kind of stuff, they know more about that than we do since this is an airsoft forum (granted I do know some stuff about .177 airguns but nothing in comparison to the experts there):

http://www.airgunforum.ca/forums/

Also why not just go here if you're looking for a .177 airgun, much easier and a LOT less hassle: http://www.dlairgun.com/

EDIT: Highly recommend the Beretta CX4 Storm for some fun, or the Daisy 853C Legend if you want to get your feet wet in some serious competition shooting.
