I know R Nicholls is the Canadian distributor but they seem to only sell to law enforcement, I also tried ordering off the Safariland site but the specific holster I wanted to order is not available to buy on their site. All I'm looking for is a paddle/belt loop holster that will fit a P226 Enhanced Elite with X300. I've seen Galco holsters at P&D so if they make the kind of holster I'm looking for that would be great.
where to get Safariland holsters?

Most of the big ebay sellers (ecop) will ship to Canada now. Seems Safariland is no longer forcing the US dealers to honour R.Nicholls sole-right to distribute.
I hope my email to Safariland had something to do with it. Ordered a holster at R.Nutsack, after 3 years of waiting I tried ordering from PlanetOrifice, but they wouldn't ship to Canada due to their agreement with safariland. So I let safariland know R.Nutsucker had cost them a customer and I had bought 2 blackhawk holsters for the price of the 1 safariland.

I ordered a Safariland holster through a local shop...it took a couple of months, but arrived eventually. Any shop that stocks Safariland should be able to order what you want, even if they don't have it on their shelf.
Yup, I tried ordering a safariland several months ago, finally gave up after several phone calls and emails etc etc and got a bladetech. Seems crazy to me when a company goes out of it's way to limit their sales. Whatever...if that's their chosen business model...good luck with that.

Not a holster. I brought in a Hogue Powerspeed Holster last summer, from Dallas via Air Canada, checked-in luggage, no question asked. Optics, ammo, parts/mags are controlled.
You aren't the only one. I tried to order Safariland speedloaders from Brownell's earlier this year and they wouldn't ship north because of the dealer agreement. I then tried to order direct from Safariland and they pointed me to R. Nichols and I told them that RN had the worst customer service on the planet and that I would buy any other brand before I would deal with RN for any product. Maybe they got enough of those emails that it left an impression.
Holsters are not ITAR controlled.
