Today on..Too Good to be True

[prproulx]

No I'm not advertising for FirearmsCanada. I am genuinly interested and at least feel the need to warn people. Could this have made it in before 1995?

...more details?

If you could make out that serial number...

You should get the seller to send you a photocopy of the registration card. I would also verify it at CFC. I was going to buy a gun off firearmscanada and had the guy send me a photocopy of his PAL. I phoned it in to CFC and the name didn't match the PAL number. Needless to say I didn't buy the gun.

I blew up the pic but can't see the SN. Oh well.

Are these not available in Canada or something? Could someone of not brought one in with the appropriate export permits.

The only thing that seems suspicious is the price, looks like its on the low side.

It's a 12(6) gun. I don't remember if they were being made before 1995.

I'll bet you a dollar that's a bogus listing. That Model of Kimber has only been on the market a few years.
I would really think twice before buying anything off that site.It really seems to attract scammers who are offering guns at too good to be true prices.

I don't have my 12(6) so I don't understand. Can a gun not be manufactured after 1995 and still be a 12(6) gun? Or is it simply unobtanium?

Did the firearms act only grant the 12(6) exemption to sub 105mm guns at that date?

Only what was here before 1995 could stay. Nothing new could be brought in except for LE.
Man if 12(6) allowed me to bring in new ones I'd have to rob banks to keep up!

There was a thread similar to this one about 6 weeks ago . Same question was asked , and it's the same gun... another scam

 

[McCoy]

Impossible
This Kimber pistol did not even exist before 1995.

So it could not have enter Canada before 1995, nobody can own this pistol legaly in Canada.
This is obviously a scam.

Scam or no, I think the pistol looks dumb when the beaver tail is almost as long as the barrel.

This guy is trying to sell an XD 4" with pics taken off Gunbroker.com

I really think this site has to be shut down.

Report scammers

if these guys are scamming then report them to the webmasters. if the one guy is using a yahoo e-mail address to scam report the specifics to yahoo. you might not have his personals but yahoo has his ip address. all it takes is an e-mail.
