we do not encourage any type of smuggling on the forums. Do it at your own risk. I'm sure you know the answer already.

look, we take smuggling very seriously around here. please...

DO NOT ASK US HOW TO SMUGGLE STUFF IN

Here is how you can get airsoft guns:

1) If you are 18, get age verified, and either buy from the classifieds, or get a retailer to custom order something for you

2) If you are not 18, do a lot of reading, researching and saving money. Refer back to number 1 when you turn 18.

We all collectively work hard to make the community and system what it is today (some more than others obviously), so we will not give info to people on how to bypass said system

To answer YOUR question. Airsoft cannot be legally imported into canada unless it is a Cansoft gun or unless you have the proper licenses to import replicas (dont ever ask how to get one. simple answer is, YOU CANT). Breaking a gun down, is bad, if you get caught, you're fucked. whether a gun is broken down or not, its still smuggling.

stop trying to beat the system. if you openly admit to trying, you will be met with severe flaming. If you do smuggle something in and admit it to everyone, chances are you wont be allowed at any games. if you are currently a minor, you still cant be allowed at any games, so why even get airsoft anyway? stick to paintball.

Your original thread was closed because your initial query was answered.
Its obvious that did not read my comment in your original thread

Attempting to bring an airsoft gun into Canada regardless if you declare it or smuggle is not a recommended course of action.
Lets take another look at your statement.

Now lets refer to the last part of my comment from your other thread

Lets take your statement and change some of the wording around

See what I am getting at?

It is not recommended for an individual to attempt to bring in their own airsoft gun from outside of Canada regardless what they do, declare it, smuggle it, break it apart into tiny little pieces etc. Whatever you do you do on your own accord and you will find no support from this website in regards to the topic. Im sure you have your reasons for why you would want to buy from outside of Canada, better selection, cheaper pricing etc. However the fact of the matter is that airsoft in Canada is not like airsoft in the rest of the world.

Please take the time to review the two following threads and you will understand.
