Ya munitions can be problematic and a tad expensive ! Also with any Pyrotechnics Inherit dangers must be considered . Had one and sold it . Then the guy that I sold it to want to sell it back to me for the same reasons .
Any hay ! Kinda been drooling over HK side loader ( not a problematic for loading the longer munitions )!
 
Hello,
Wish we could all be at Shot show....haha.
If it's sold in 37mm and non-rifles, then its just a big flaregun with no need of Pal/licences as long as you only shoot flares, blanks or bear-bangers....hahaha.
Lots of CGN 'ers have them in Canada.
Let me know if you can get them in 37mm and to Canada, as i could arrange to buy some from a small business.

I’ve been wanting a launcher but I see the munitions for them is the issue. And seem most people go the 26.5 insert route which opens you to flares but those seem to be a buy them while we have them kind of thing. And a luancher with just the 12 gauge insert is a hard thing for me to justify if thats what i may be limited to at some point if other munition options become more of a short supply. I’m also newer to looking into luanchers. But these are just my thoughts. Want one but hesitant when good munitions supply is in question.
 
I 3d print projectiles and they're very simple to reload. I can lob a lead payload projectile 200+ meters with hi-low pressure shells. It's $2 of plastic and lead over 8gr of 800x behind a copper burst disc. Very cheap to shoot. Many times the projectiles are recoverable.

I just need a decent rifled launcher to start having real fun. Right now I stabilize my projectiles with fins and a very heavy nose. Rifling would get me further, as I could make my projectile more aerodynamic and rely on centrifugal stabilization from rifling rather than the "mortar" like stabilization that comes from using the property of center of gravity well ahead of center of pressure.

In the US, a rifled gun over .50 is a DD, but in Canada, it's still a non-firearm. So 37mm rifled, 40mm rifled, no problem in Canada. Just no one makes them and sells them to civs
 
Yes definitely. But the barrel was also made of steel. Most modern 37mm "flare launchers" have aluminum barrels.

However a rifled aluminum barrel would be excellent for swagging plastic projectiles
