First off, you have to forget international prices on guns. In Canada, expect to pay 2-4 times the price for an airsoft gun. That's just the way it is, and there's no way around it.

Secondly, as already mentioned, if you're 18 or older, then meet with a local rep to get age verified. That will give you access to the classifieds here on this forum. This is pretty much your only option for getting a non-clear gun in Canada now. If you're under 18, then you're screwed till you are 18.

A lot of foreign companies will ship to Canada. That's not the issue. They're more than happy to take your money. It's whether or not your order will make it through customs or not that the issue, and whether or not the item will just be seized, or whether the CBSA decides to lay charges for importing prohibited items. The sellers, regardless what licenses they hold, have no say in that matter.

Doesn't matter what the exporter from the US holds in terms of licenses. It's what the importer here in Canada holds. Unless you personally hold a business firearms license that allows the import of replicas for movie & theatrical production, then you cannot under any circumstance legally import a non-clear airsoft gun yourself. If you're lucky, customs won't open and inspect your package. But if they do, they will seize and destroy it, and could possibly lay charges against you for it if the item is not correctly declared. If it is correctly declared, it will be seized.

Are you not getting this?

They can ship it 50 different ways, it won't matter because it'll always go through Customs, and the Officer upon seeing the replica firearm will go "LOL n00b!" and seize your shit. End of story.

Of course the store will say it'll make it in; once they have your money they don't care. Customs is a burden on the IMPORTER not the exporter. If it gets seized they get to keep your money cuz it wasn't their fault/problem.

You can buy pretty much anything off that site and have it make it into Canada, but not airsoft guns or other prohibited items. I don't care who the foreign site is. Canadian importation laws are what they are. Unless you hold the right licenses, which you don't, you are not allowed to import a gun into the country.

Dude, think about it for 5 minutes. You've been here, what, a month? Some people have been around on these forums for 5+ years, and airsoft in Canada has existed long before then. Don't you think that if there was a way to easily get airsoft guns into the country they would have found it by now?
