Question Necessary documentation needed for importation?

I'm just curious, what is the necessary documentation needed to import full colored airsoft guns and/or grenade launchers?

It's the BFL - Business Firearm License, but they only issue them to established businesses (for movie props or Mil/LE training) and it's expensive as hell.

Or you can use the other method but we're not allowed to talk about it (not to mention there's a lot of bureaucracy involved and it's probably not worth it).

Support local retailers!!! We pay full price, so should everyone else. Shortcuts will end up screwing you from behind with a rusty potato masher.

It's honestly not worth is for even a couple of AEGS. Buy the time you pay the initial cost of the AEG to the manufacturer/supplier, pay the extra fee for the manufacturer/supplier to do the mods, pay overseas shipping on rather large boxes, process all the paper work, wait for CBSC and the RCMP, and hope they don't refuse the make or model in the first place.....it's really not worth it.
Oh and the politics on the subject are endless here................

This is the correct, easiest, and best way to acquire your next purchase.

If you need to ask us that question, you have no business importing them in the first place.


There are loads of great retailers here in Canada, and with changes made alot of them are now selling "full colored" airsoft guns.

I suggest you go out to a game, get age verified and then check out the av retailers section. The prices are very good, and your giving your money to Canadians.

lol it's always the non av'd folks that ask these types of questions, as if they're more special or something than everybody else.

did anyone notice the "I'm just curious" part? I just wanted to satisfy my curiosity and I don't actually plan to do it.
