I don't know who you talked to but, I placed an order with Galati Two weeks ago for two SC Charging handles and they arrived in 8 days... their shopping cart allows and processes Canadian orders, they did email for approval for increased shipping cost but the total was still less than Brownell's or elsewhere. By international they mean outside of US and Canada. Just place the order.
They do ship to Canada
---------------------------
The online ordering process is for customers within the United States and Canada. Galati International does accept orders outside of North America. However, you must first obtain a quote to see if we can ship your order, and to figure the shipping amount for your order.
Please understand there are some restricted items that we cannot ship outside of the United States, including Canada. We cannot ship ammunition and magazines, laser sights, bipods, night vision, night sights or any gun parts including stocks. Other items, including scopes, mounts, knives, and pepper spray depend upon the country of destination.
All orders outside of United States and Canada must be over $100 in product and must be paid by Western Union Money Order. A $15 processing fee will be applied to all international orders.
We ship international orders by USPS Priority Mail only.
If an item is confiscated by customs, we will not be able to offer a refund. We do not refund any shipping charges on returned items. All fees for customs are the responsibility of the customer.
Canadian orders can be placed online. However, we will contact you by email for approval of any additional shipping charges, if needed.
