I'm not worried at all, I actually like how even though its really difficult to obtain any imported products this place is here to help us out and people are will to help each other out.

Thanks to Jeff Baker, all i did was contact his business with a question on how to obtain and now am a proud member of this site. I am a part of 2 other totally different forums and spend most time at the one but. it would be cool to meet local people and set up something.

Cause if you look at capitalairsoft.ca where i am he has nothing, unless you have to be verified.

This site is by private membership. The retailers don't have separate web sites. There are not public airsoft stores. They're private dealers without store fronts.

For pistols, no "public" site has anything really worthwhile, IMO. However, many are starting to carry high grade AEGs like ICS and G&G that have been built with clear lower receivers to make them Canadian-legal. Dubbed "Cansoft" (as opposed to the "clearsoft" or "crapsoft" moniker attached to the cheaper guns), these are very worthy guns that are worth their price. And they're getting more widely available in Canada.

Do you have any pics of the ones that are available here or sent me to a page that has some. Non-clear

[Crunchmeister]

Sorry. Forum rules. Can't do that. You have to wait till you're verified.

Okay ill wait but can you tell me that your gas guns you have are available here?

[The Saint]

Most the guns Crunch has in his sig are available, except some of the special editions and custom items. To find out which ones exactly, wait until your AV.

There are tons to choose from. New and used. For verification, you may want to go to

They are your local club and may have verifiers for asc.

I thank you guys alot its 11:30 right now and i work tomorrow a 7 am and most of you probably do to so thanks for staying up and helping me alone. Not many people out there doing such.

*gets everyone a beer*

I got all my pistols except for 2 of them right here on ASC through private deals. There's not exactly a huge selection available at any given time, but between the retailers and private sales (both new and used), you can find most of the more common pistols fairly easily most of the time.

Welcome and what a great attitude! this is rarely seen around here amongst new comers. as for pic's of what you can buy once AV'd check out the gallery and airsoft media thread. most of the guns posted there were bought here or on sites supported by/supporting this site and our AV system.

I might also add that our AV system holds no legal bearing whatsoever. This is only setup as "our way" of dealing with irresponsible kiddies who decide to brandish their totally badass gangster glock they got in public and end up getting shot and killed by ERT or RCMP.

Airsoft already kind of has a bad rap already because of media perpetration of stereotypes of "airsofters" (the ones you always see in the news) whereas that's only the small minority and they're usually minors (which is why we have the 18+ AV thing). We're all pretty cool guys, responsible, and law abiding citizens.

Any other questions just post here and we'll be glad to help you out. Also do not get a sniper rifle as your first or second gun wait till maybe your 3rd or 4th. just search around and you should be able to get some good information (search bar is your friend). If you have a wife or girlfriend seriously understate the amount of money your stuff cost. They won't be very happy after you tell them you spent $1000+ on a toy gun that shoots bb's and related gear.

[06SRT10]

Thanks I know how expensive things can be i own a ram quad cab an old dodge drag truck and an 06 SRT-10 Ram. I don't always by the most expensive things just always try to get the top of the line. I don't like buying crap.

[mopic]

Don't order from the U.S. it won't get here. Order from a retailer In Canada.

LOL, I always cut prices to 25% if my wife ever asks!

[Rukus]

Or get your wife a rifle so she can play too. That's what I did, she doesn't bitch about it now lol. Only things she complains about now is if we can't find a babysitter on a game day. (I'm not missing the game)
