[BCallaway]

I along with three friends are visiting ontario in may and would like to be able to do a bit of hunting can anyone advise of the legalities of us purchasing airguns and hunting with them.

well, far as i know you'll need to be a registered resident for a certain period of time, then you'll need to register for a hunting license, and all that good stuff.

other than that, you'll need a registered guide. otherwise, dont get caught

What part of Ontario will you be visiting? Open seasons vary in different parts of the province.

You can buy an under 500fps airgun almost anywhere.

A non-residents licence to hunt small game will cost you $87.50.

You don't have to be a resident to get a hunting licence, actually you can even get a PAL if you want (but it takes a while). Legally you should get a hunting license, although are seasons for when you can hunt something...
