Where to buy an Armsan?

[gloszz]

Now that Milarm is in trouble and closed till further notice, where would I be able to buy an Armsan 612s? I know they were one of the few only places in Canada to carry them.

Maybe talk to Prophet River?

They have it but for $200 more, plus add shipping and such, may as well be cheaper to smuggle one in from Texas.

There would have to be something very wrong with someone to consider smuggling firearms across the border to save $200.

I was being sarcastic, as in would be cheaper for me to legally buy it in Texas and pay whatever I would need to at the border than have it shipped from Ontario on top of it being $200 more.

If you look into what it would cost to buy a cheap firearm in the USA, and have it legally imported, you would find out that it will likely cost you more than buying it in Canada. You would have to pay for the permits and other paperwork, the exchange rate, the duty, and the shipping within the USA. I have gone through the procedure multiple times, and it only saves money if you get a great deal on a higher priced firearm, it isn't cost effective on low priced firearms like Armsan.

Welcome to Canada. To be fair 200 more is actually pretty good considering what the markup is on some guns that you find in both Canada and the US..
