I tried searching for "MP5" and oddly enough it returned no results...

Are MP5s available in Canada? How bout modified variants? Maybe "replicas" of some kind?

Just wondering...

basically the rule is if it looks really cool and you dont own one now you never will as they prohibited it...... a few exceptions of course

I saw a couple of UMPs around here once. Pretty sweet. They were about $6500 each. I like guns, but I don't like them that much.

[aiwa]

greentips is the only one I have noticed for sale there...

LMAO.

SMGs and affordable don't go together man. Get a VZ58S or a CZ858 if you want an economy black rifle. That or maybe a krinker plinker.

ps - Love that UMP Spike

The reason you got no results on the search is because there's a stupid 4 character minimum on the search function. You'd get the same thing with SKS, M14, M1A, 870 etc.

get a famae, they look like a MP5

It's just a simple closed bolt though...
