Techincally it's the CBSA's
interpretation of Canada's laws surrounding Airsoft (or lack of laws sorrounding Airsoft).

There are no licensed stores. There is no Airsoft Importation License. Calgary once had 007airsoft (online store), but Ken's down for several fortnights (and by several I mean chance of indefinately). Now the only available reliable options are age restricted (the classifieds and the online stores which use the ASC Age Verification system). And I wouldn't turn my nose up to a used gun. Used guns are often upgraded to very reliable and gamable standards (beefed up mechboxs, tightbores, upgraded pistons, etc) and all for the price of a new AEG or less. However, there are also
new guns available in the classifieds (and the Age restricted stores). In fact it's not uncommon for a new 416 to pop up around there.

If his makes it through, I'd take him out to the pub for a few brews and hope some of his incredible luck rubs off onto me. I haven't gotten lucky in a week now.

Ok look, people have tried to help you out and you didn't heed their warning. Trust them, they been through this countless times and they know the results well. They are getting their panties ina twist because you clearly don't seem to be getting the messege they are trying to send to you (all they are doing is trying to stop you from throwing away money). And your panties are in a twist because their panties are ina twist. So lets all take a break and untwist our panties.
All considered, if you have money to lose, go for it. Although you may want to consider giving it to charity instead (atleast you'll get a tax credit).
