200 and less. Well your options are fairly limited then. Im not sure if shootsofts prices go that low, you will have to see the website for yourself.

For 200 or less, you will be able to aquire something from Walmart or Canadian tire, the quality is not the best and the plastic is clear, and in most cases I do not believe many of them are electric. This is however the brand known as Kraken, they make an ak47 which retails in the area of 175 dollars. From what Ive heard its a lower to midrange quality that creates cloned guns, of semi questionable quality, however their ak47 has been proven to be one of fair and decent quality for the cost, however the body is clear but all parts internally are tokyomarui brand compatable and with some small investments over time you could have a formidable aeg. Aside from that you are pretty much out of options.

Since youve stated that your interested in playing with friends, I would just like to advise that you be safe, becareful and stay out of sight. The alure of playing out doors or on private property is fun, but you never know what a person walking by may think when they see people running around with something that may look like a sub machine gun or a shotgun. Now most likly you are thinking "well no its on my friends land and the neighbors dont care" or "theres a large wooded area behind my house that noone can see into and we can play there" or "we live on a farm and noones around". I have heard it all before, all I will say is, be careful, extremely careful. Its not wise to play out doors and its not suggest that you do, but Im not trying to tell you what you can and cannot do, Im just giving advise. Just so you know for all intensive purposes when it comes to the law, in most courts airsoft is usually considered a firearm right off the bat. If your caught out doors with an airsoft gun by the police, you may get off with a slap on the wrist and warning, you may land yourself in a whole heap of trouble.

Here on asc we usually advise people be the age of 18 before aquiring their first airsoft gun. Why? Because 18 is the legal age that a person is considered an adult and can be held responsible for their own actions. Hense if you do something stupid, only you can get in trouble and not your parents.
As far as I know there is no law stating that a minor can not have an airsoft gun. However I believe there is one province where there is a law stating one must be 18 to own one. Which province that is I well let someone else elborate. I have not inquired about your age, nor do I wish to know, but I have given you all the information you require and then some for the time being.

Finally, here is a link with information about the how and why of airsoft in Canada. I would suggest you read it to englighten yourself on the situation of airsoft in Canada.
