5 mm rem rimfire

[brybenn]

I heard a Mexican company Aguila was making 5 mm rimfire again. Anyone see any in Canada?

Do they even sell Aquila in Canada anymore.

I remember a lot of people saying they wished Aguila was available in Canada but as far as I know there hasn't been any in a decade or two.
I have seen some Centurion branded ammo in 5mm rimfire. Some digging shows that Centurion is a big US importer of Aguila ammo. Maybe some Aguila --> Centurion rebranded ammo made it into Canada through the US? I remember seeing it at Canada Ammo a few years ago I believe. Long gone since.

Last time Aguila was available in Canada, Aguila was owned by Remington. 30 plus years ago. Doesn't appear that Centurion Ordnance is here either.

Aguila does not have approval for import at the moment, I believe that is supposed to change in September 2015. Question is what will they be shipping up here!

Thanks. Guess I'll hold off on buying the rifle for now

Do they need a permit for each type ammo or one general permit.?

If you go to there web site they have also dropped a bunch of their line lately also. They stuck with the normal everyday ammo.
