Is there any Canadian store (online, or physical in the GTA) that carries the Aguila 12 Gauge Mini Shells?
I'd love to try those :cool:
Googling "mini 12 gauge Canada" didn't really help much.

I may be wrong but I don't believe that there has ever been an Aguila importer, probably because Aguila hasn't submitted samples to NRCAN for approval...

To the best of your knowledge, are there any other 12 Ga mini shells on the market, besides those made by Aguila? If so, any of those available over here?

You are wrong, but that was a long time ago. Currently they are not on the approved list. LeBaron used to sell a ton Aguila ammo. For years, it was the only ammo that I would buy.
 
Anyhow, whichever Canadian store brings in mini slugs, that would be greatly appreciated!
Just thinking about filling the magazine with those makes me salivate ;)
They say one can fit 24 (!) into a KSG!

Aguila supposedly has a new importer. I don't think they have landed any product yet but hopefully it will materialize soon.

Trigger Wholesale. They have sent out pre order sheets to dealers but no ETA on products, and I expect pricing will be affected by $US changes.
 
Yea like any thing else, special cost more. Have shot many a box of it. Not overly powerful stuff and you can't speed pump it but if you go easy ( Mossberg 500 /Remington 870) they will function well. I had three different slug, buck and shot. A novelty at best, or to train a noob.

Lots of videos on the web of them functioning exellent in both shotguns you mentioned, and I wouldn't say novelty at best, a lot of guys who run pump guns in compition would love to get ahold of these for higher tube capacity

Got them years a go state side then found some more at a mom and pop store. Haven't seen them in years here in canada. As for competition shooters they would give them fits, they do not cycle well if you jocel them around and try and speed pump them. Then again if you had your gun set up just for them they would be possibly something great. As they are low recoil. But at the price they would sell for you would be farther ahead if you rolled your own. From what that I have read they have been used with some success in modified shot guns state side.
