airsoft wholesale

[acidpunk]

dose any one know any airsoft companies here in Canada who sells wholesale im wanting to start up a airsoft/military surplus shop

[surebet]

And I assume you have the proper credentials?

Wholesale in Canada is a pipe dream at best, take a few weeks to study the FAQs and read up on the current situation.

Sorry to say but theres already some reputable surplus shops in the Lower Mainland.

Daves Army Surplus and Tactical (sorry only one I know about) and it isn't even that far from maple ridge (New West).

Gorillas (only cause it's in Vancouver (close to me) it doesn't sell airsoft AFAIK)

Etc.

maybe a crash course in proper English would help. or else you'll end up naming your store
Army Sirplus.

not trying to start any thing but you try typing while holding a 7 month old kid and if all your going to do is give me negative feedback don't bother posting

Nobody's giving you negative feedback right now... there's been many people saying they're opening a store and whatnot lately and no one has seen anything credible yet, so don't take it personally if we don't take you super seriously at first...

Tell you what; get your credentials, read our FAQ, setup a good business, read our FAQ again, and perhaps look at the top of each page... see the button called Canadian Retailers? Click it. Read some more after that.

Then you will start to have an idea about airsoft and how much of a load of red tape is involved.

As far as typing with a kid in your arms, remember we cant see this. All we have to judge you by is a post written in a hurry that (to us) looks like a kid wrote it. Many kids do try to get into airsoft, so that's how it's seen.

Find enough free time to get your stuff together, then read a lot, and lastly come ask about what you have not found in your research of what we already wrote. Fair enough?

Move to vancouver island to open a surplus store between nanaimo and Victoria theres only one on the island and it sucks .

[acidpunk]

no one is now but it will happen and for opening the place up iv been slowly working on it for about 5 months it takes allot to start a business but it will be up and when it is it will be posted on here

.. Next he'll be asking for 3000 dollar pre-orders and have his wife come online and bitch @ us >.>

For your question, All the major retailers offer wholesale.

You just need to get approved through them.

But.. Good luck getting airsoft into the country

[acidpunk]

for all the red tape on airsoft in Canada right now to be able to import the guns into Canada you need a license to import prohibited goods since airsoft guns are considered replica firearms it would cost me about 200 bucks every 3 years to be aloud to import the guns them selfs

[acidpunk]

and there is the negative feedback and all that crap iv read most of these threads and it seams like most of you get off on picking on people and trying to put everyone down i asked a simple question and it couldn't even be answered with respect its just people acting like pricks

If it was this easy there wouldn't be only 2 retailers in canada.

You need a Business Fire Arms license, a license to import them... and a whole bunch of other licenses.

It's not easy... You should stick to legal to import gear instead.
