Before Christmas I saw a bronze copy of an ancient Greek helmet for sale in the US at a very good closeout price. Since Reliks did not carry it, I paid all the fees to import it. The helmet ended up costing well over double the American price.

    Questar, I hope you don't mind me talking about Reliks. They are not a competitor and I suspect that many GunNutz members are also interested in swords, knives, battle axes and the like, and would like to know about them. Good company, all but unique in Canada. No, I am not connected with them except as a customer. If you find it offensive, feel free to delete the company's name or the entire post. Thanks.
    No issues at all posting, sheds some light on things.

    All the best,

    That was one of the best explanations and honest posts I have seen in cgn. Thanks for the honesty, as a us citizen I have imported most of my guns solo, and I can* say this is an accurate representation of the hoops you have to jump through for the cost savings. You could save maybe 200 if you do it yourself, but depending what you are worth per hour, you will eat up that 200 pretty fast as this is a long process for an Individual.

    Cheers

    Not to mention you have to find a store willing to help, these days that's probably the hardest part, buffalo gun centre stopped exporting altogether because it's such a pita!

    No updates just yet. Lots of unknowns at the moment like, how many they're getting where everyone is in the pecking order, stuff like that. When we know we'll be letting you know.

    Unfortunately no. We've asked for updates but have not received any information beyond 'they're on the way'.

    What is the barrel length of these pistols? Research suggests 4", so I assume they're making 106mm barrels or longer for Canada?
