Airsoft Alliance Canada Shutting Down
 

Hello Everyone,

Just to end any speculations:) Yes, Airsoft Alliance Canada is shutting down. Rangers Airsoft and Double Edge Airsoft have decided to call it quits. It's been a wounderful ride, and it's been sucessful, and we have all of our loyal customers to thank for that. Jackson, Roger and I can't thank you enough for all your support, and business throughout the years.

This was quite a quick decision, but after sitting down, we all felt the same way. We are all working on, and ready to move on to other things in our lives. We all knew from the beginning this was not a forever thing, and that time has now come to move on.

Running AAC as large as it was, and with the volumn we were running, was a very tough thing to do. It's been alot tougher than most realize having to deal all the time with shipping companies, airlines, brokers, and worst of all Customs:) We did our best, and we hope we have done our part in the past few years to help our Canadian market grow, and expand. There are still some long time, reputable retailers out there that you can go to, and we all know this market of ours can continue without any hic-ups from us shutting down.

We still have our e-mails up and running, and for the time being, our toll free phone numbers are still active (however, don't call that until after July 3rd or so, as Roger is on hollidays until then). Any pending orders will of course be processed. Anyone that are waiting on orders, or that have left deposits for items that will no longer be coming in, can contact us asap, and we will make arrangements for either full refunds of any deposits, or if there is anything else you would like from our current inventory, you may choose that option as well. We will be around a while longer in order to clear out the current inventory we have left in our warehouse. So if your interested, e-mail us to find out what we have in stock.

We made this post because we owe you all an explanation. As you are all aware, I am not around ASC much. I personally try and stay away from MSG boards (politics drive me nuts!! haha). Also this is a very busy time in our lives, so we will most likely not be around ASC here much after this post. Anyone needing to speak to us can still contact myself or Jackson via e-mail.

So thank you all for a great past 6+ years! It really has been amazing!

Regards,
Randy Becker

Sad to see you two go. Got my very first airsoft from you guys.


Does this mean clearance prices? :D

Thanks for your service to the community, we'll miss you and wish you success with whatever you do next. ;)

Man, Rangers, you'll miss me guys ! You were the first retailer I dealt with to get my very first airsoft too, just like Firemachine69. That was always great to deal with you ! Fast, efficient and cool too !

Thanks for everything guys and for all your good services.

Clearance prices ? :D LOL

Agreed, recently bought my ICSak74 from DEA.

Was much impressed with the level of service.

sad to see you guys close down.

Best of luck in what ever you undertake next Gents.

ah shit, it's somewhat of a sad day :)

From a tiny retailer to a monster, it was indeed good while it lasted.

See you round randyman.

Rangers also took my airsoft virginity. THANKS!!! Good luck in your future endeavours

I've only heard good things, and I hate to see you guys leave before we can benefit off of each other. Good luck!

It's funny,I bought my first through you guys as well.Sorry to hear your not going to be around,it's sad.I'v done 95% of my orders through you guys and I would never have thought you'd be closing the doors.Your performance was second to none for my self.Wish you guys all the best in what ever you decide to get into.Thanks again for the great service.

Got my first aeg from you guys as well.

Best of luck in the future.

Aww man :sad: i had hoped to get my first AEG from Rangers because i've heard nothing but good things about you guys.

Thanks Guys
 

I too, had bought my guns through you guys. Thanks for being there on the retail side, was nice to come in and check out what was available. Best of luck in the future with whatever you do.

I bought my second gun from DEA and swore I would buy another, the service was excellent and very fast. I am sad to see DEA go...
Thanks for everything you have done to help airsoft grow.

I did not get my first guns from you, but in a weird way I got my last (latest) ones from your store.
Thanks for taking time to answer my questions. We'll see how things go from here.

Good luck with whatever you do next in your lives guys :)

Welcome to the retired Airsoft Pimps club. GL on your future endeavors :)

Good luck Guys!

Both my airsoft guns game from you guys.

Wonderful Service!!!!

Best of luck to you all! You provided great service to me in my purchases, Thank You :salute: :cheers:

Aww crap, I can't wing woger no more. :sad:

Good luck in the future guys, thanks for the hard work of supporting the airsoft community!

Both my guns are from DEA. Sorry to see you folks duck out of the biz.

Lots of opportunity in Calgary these days. All the best. Sometimes I wished I understood more chemical engineering so I could make big bucks in the sandy oil patch. Lots more girls studying chem eng too...

Good luck in your new ventures.

You mean fem eng.

Shit, this sucks. I bought my first AEG from Rangers, a TM MP5A4. I was just wondering, you said you were going to stay open until the rest of your stock is cleared out. I'm looking to buy 2 CA M24 mags, and I'm just wondering if you guys take paypal, I'm assuming you don't because I can't find it on Rangers site...

Thanks!

good luck guys and thx again for the M24!

Good luck in the future guys, and thanks for the Mp5a4.

Best of luck guys. Thanks for all the help and toys in the past few.

Can someone plays Taps on this forum?

Again, I got my first gun from Rangers

Anyways good luck to both, and I'm sure after running an excellent store in airsoft anything else will be easy

:cheers:

Good luck in future projects, or whatever both will be doing in the future.
Tis' a sad day, I got my first airsoft things from Rangers about 3 years ago...was hoping to get my first AEG from them too :(

Thank you! :cheers:

What can I say that hasnt already been said.

If the response from people on here is any indication as to the success and level of appreciation for both service and products AAC has received from players and enthusiasts, then you are walking away at the peak of your game.

Good luck in whatever you choose to do next, knowing that there is a wealth of support you can call on from the Airsoft community here in Canada.

Best wishes.....Kia Kaha.(forever strong)

Wow I can't believe I missed this thread...This is really really sad...I was just in Seals today and I had no idea! Hah had I known, I would have bought a shwack of guns!

Good luck guys, all the best! Thanks for everything!

ran, thanks for the all the help in the past years, wish u and your team all the best .

i was hoping to buy my first aeg from you rangers. o well best wishes and good luck:'(

:sad: sad to see you go, I got both of my guns from you (very fast service too) :cheers: good luck

Well, goes to show you how much of an idiot I am...I already sent in a money order for a KWA Glock 18c, and only now do I realize that they were closing down.... Mind you, I recieved a confirmation email and an address for the the order. So, uhh, after laughing at my general stupidity, could this have been a scam? I mean, the website was still up until last Monday. Any advice would be appreciated.

Why don't you try emailing them before calling it a scam?

They might still have stock they want to clear up.

Airsoft Alliance a scam? lol no

If you sent a money order in, expect your parcel in the mail. If we're sold out of the product we have no problems in refunding your money. As far as i know were pretty good about honor product even before we shut down and after.

Ah, perfect. Thank you very much for clearing that up. Much appreciated!

While this has already been cleared up, I did try to email them, but hotmail said that the email address no longer existed. This was when I got a bit worried. However, after seeing all the great feedback they've gotten, I can see that I was wrongly mistaken.

You will be missed
 

Thanks guys for your help over the years. I bought my first from you guys. It still runs great. Thanks again good luck in the future.
