Doubt it, No way of checking a person got their license. So Amazon is selling a firearm, with the ability to sell to an unlicensed person. Its not really good for the airgun community.



Might have something to do with Location, but it shouldnt take an extra 12 days to get to Calgary???? This is what it shows me.......

LOL BOOOOOOOOO :mrgreen: Kind of figured it was too good to be true. And it was listed at pretty much the same price they sell for in the US........unless our dollar took a jump last night while I was sleeping.

Aside from the money the only thing stopping me is I think it has an integral suppressor so I wouldn't be able to legally keep it even if it did show up.
