A 36-year-old Barrie man faces numerous charges for smuggling replica guns.

Authorities have seized 30 replica handguns, 15 long guns, and a number of accessories at a north-end residence.

The arrest was made following a lengthy investigation involving the Barrie police guns and gangs unit, with the assistance of the street crime unit , and the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA).

Wow, I wonder if he was on this board?

We'll see what Barrie member stops posting for a while after this...

[Conker]

Oh shit... that's bad.

That's definitely not some gangstashit, they wouldn't put Magpul stocks or PEQ15 on their guns... damn why going after a legitimate hobby? There's enough gangs in Toronto with REAL guns to go after...

Anyone from Barrie know someone that fits that description?

[Danke]

I'll give them $100 for the PDW at the Police auction.

Likely a collector. Probably had a relative shipping them up as "gifts".

I hope we get to hear the full story, though it will likely never happen.

Shouldn't they be going after some real firearms, or more importantly some dope, instead of attacking our hobby?

I know it seems lame for authorities to be going after toy guns but there's a reason why Canadian Tire in the GTA had to stop selling pellet guns.

Lots of people were getting robbed, and back in 2004 before Toronto Police executed Project Impact a peace officer was shot in the ear with a pellet gun by a group of 12-14 year old kids who were all packing CT Pellet guns.

For those that remember, "Black Ops" had the exact same guns as pictured for sale at one point.. Low and behold, as of 1:20 earlier today he "Banana'd" them all.

Not pointing any fingers, but I think we can all add 1+1 = 2 in this case.

Sad to see another member of this community go, hope all works out.

I'll be honest I'm not 100% sure myself, but I'd rather not take chances, whatever those may be lol.

And by accessories, they must mean all the metal bodies he had...

Sad to see good AEGs go to waste : (

[Conker]

Well, not just the AEGs and GBBs, but more for the guy too... Hope he's able to sort everything out.

Ouch. Coincidentally age matches and he suddenly banana'd his thread.
