    Difficulty viewing the new website

    Google Chrome works like a dream . it is fast. surfing Canadaammo's website is a daily thing for me to see if anything is on sale and the new website put a damper on things . but as I said Google Chrome works great . if I was them I would tell the guy responsable for setting up thier website that he has more than likely cost them money in lost sales and go find another job . like cleaning out horse stalls . or go back to school and learn how to do your job properly. PERIOD .


    it's not Canadaammo's fault it's the squid's fault who set up the website who is responsible for the problems.

    I used to check Can Am's website everyday too but not since the new website was launched. It displays well on my Android phone but not my desktop. I used to check out the Twitter feed as any late breaking specials seemed to be posted there first. Can't find the Twitter feed on the new site. I also have no intention of updating my browser to suite a website. That's ridiculous. Not many people like change, especially when it seems to be for the worse. Your site developer needs a shake. I also liked the fact that when ordering on-line with the old site, sales tax was calculated at 5% no matter what province you were from. The new site adjusts to the provincial tax of my home province. Which to me, means a price increase of 10% which puts a lot of your stock on par with local prices and no longer a deal.

    My employer lets me surf on breaks. It uses Internet Explorer 9. If I didn't know there were good things on the site and based solely on first impressions, I'd ignore your business. To echo the others, if it ain't broken don't fix it.

    On the other hand, the email with the .45ACP special hit my BlackBerry and I was able to browse happily through the offers. Hmmmm, which one do I like?

    Just as a side note, everyone regardless of what browser they use, should keep that browser updated. And when the vendor (Microsoft, Google etc) releases (not immediately, but soon after) a another major version you should upgrade. Why? Security. Web browsers are the number one vector for hackers. Visit a malicious website (which could be a legitimate site that was itself hacked) with an older browser because you don't like change and without even knowing it your computer is now part of a vast criminal bot net.

    Same problem here. Firefox 35.0.1 (latest).

    I wouldn't have mentioned it otherwise, but since you're essentially looking for feedback and acknowledging problems, I have to say that the new site isn't very "graceful" to use.

    Old site was much better, new site has too many pop ups and hover overs, you also can't print anything easy

    Tax should be 5% for anyone outside of BC
    Since Canada Ammo is located in BC, they would charge GST+PST for residents of BC only.

    This same issue was brought up with another vendor who was over charging for tax.

    If Canada Ammo is charging you more then 5% and you are in Nova Scotia I would call them and report it as its wrong.

    ^ The HST was abolished in BC 2 years ago. But, we do have a PST on most things.

    I'm using Internet Explorer 9 and the new website is not compatible. Still works great on Android though.
