Default Buying online?

Just recently got my PAL and have never bought a firearm, but I know exactly what I want. And now I want to purchase online but am unsure what sites are respectable. What sites have people used and continue to use? Please share your experiences and recommendations....Thanks

Ther are lots of good places to deal with. I wouldn't limit yourself to 'online' ordering only, sometimes a phone call is much easier and you can confirm exactly what you are buying. Some I have had good luck with are:
Questar
P&D (Phone order)
Wolverine (Phone order)
Frontier Firearms
Moving Target (Phone order)
CanadaAmmo

I've been thinking about trying grouseriver.com Anyone have luck with these guys?

Their website doesn't show when they have an item out of stock which seems a little silly.

I should have added them to my list above. They are great to deal with. I have ordered from them a few times and they have really gone out of their way for me on one occasion. They definitely look after their customers in my experience. I would have no worries ordering from them again.

Just finished dealing with dudley's outdoor escape in drayton valley and must say Amber was amazing. They are even delivering the gun to me in red deer next week.
