Don't you guys have to register every firearm that you own with the government?
I'll pass on the bazooka, if I can get by without registration. Can you still own handguns in Canada? |

Canada? Let's see...
[size=2](Full Gun Registration)+(Caliber Bans)+(No Magazines over 5 rounds)+(Restrictions on size of handguns)+(a Gun Auction site with less than 100 listed guns)=[/size=2] [b]NOT WORTH IT[/b] Stop trying to make people think Kanadian gun owners are better off than US gun owners! It just doesn't make sense. |

Folding stocks: Legal.
Open bolt: Legal. Flash hiders: Legal. Bayonet lugs: Legal. Handguns: legal if barrel above 104mm. High capacity LEO mags: Legal if dissasembled, when assembled must only take 5rds (in other words 100 30rd mags dissasembled ready for SHTF is legal). Silencers: Just like mags, legal if dissasembled. Lightning link: Legal if dissasembled. M16 parts except sear in AR: Legal. DIAS: Legal if dissasembled. |

Is that thing a bolt action? If so, can they be legally bought here in the USA? |

The Lathi in the USA is over the legal caliber limit for a DD, you would need to pay a 200$ tax if you find one, and where a Canadian would pay about 2700$ US, you will probably go far up into much larger numbers.
She is not bolt action, she is a semi-auto 20mm Anti-tank Cannon. Click on this to get a comparison between it and a Magnum Research BFR revolver: [url]http://obscure-reference.com:8080/guns/bfr/BFR_Lahti.jpg[/url] |

If I had to pay Canadian tax rates to support all of their socialist BS, I probably couldn't afford any of that stuff anyhow.
But enjoy it while you can. My money says it's only a matter of time before your government bans it, too. |

Ok guys, bare with me, im only doing this since our Canadian contingent started to pick a fight [:)]
Okay.... Full Auto: US yes, Finland yes, Canada [b]NO[/b] Legal to use high cap mags: USA yes, Finland yes, Canada [b]NO[/b] Sound suppressors and their use: USA yes, Finland yes, Canada [b]NO[/b] So...its 3-0 in favour of the US and Finland....[:D] We all know that getting Class 3 weapons in the US is more difficult....BUT IT ATLEAST IS POSSIBLE. High cap mags, suppressors, lighting links, DIAS are legal there in Canada...they are very useful when [b]dissambled[/b] [:)] Since im on a good mood...im not gonna start telling about select fire weapon prices here [:D] PS. Suppressors are permit free here |

I'm not sure it's fair to say that the US or Canada has it beter. In Canada you can get kewler toys, you just have to jump throught all kinds of hoops to get them.
Here we can't get many of the kewl toys, but what we can get we can get easily, and ammo is avalible everywhere. Last time I checked you couldn't by a case of 5.56mm at Zellers. (do you guys still have those up there? there were 2 or 3 of them in Kingston where I used to live) I would say it's a tossup over who is beter off, but if things keep going like they are and 94' goes bye-bye I think things will tilt are direction again, but I sure do wish I could get a SIG 552 and a polish BRS-99 here in the states! |

Tuuka, by your US standard of being Yes for full-auto I can say that Canada has full-auto aswell. Anyone owning a full-auto before the ban was allowed to continue owning their full-auto after the ban in Canada. And owning a newly made DIAS dissasembled in Canada carries no prison time, where as in the USA it does. Also in the USA silencer parts require a NFA tax stamp for each and unregistered parts get you in jail, in Canada they do not.
Canadian laws allow for SHTF supplies. And anyone that needs a 30rd mag to have fun at the range is retarded. You can spray and pray, while I have learnt to aim and shoot since I only have 5rds in my rifle and 10 in my handgun, If I ever really need a 30rd mag, a 100rd drum, a DIAS or a lightning link, no law will stop me from assembling them. |

I'll bear this design in mind, just in case I should ever get around to have my Mauser Broomhandle redone.

Note, these are current prices for weapons we have recently sold at the shop where i work, the prices for select fire and other more exotic weapons have risen somewhat in the past 2-3 years.
German HK MP5A2/A3 new $1940 German HK G3A3 new/used $895 German HK G3SG/1 w/acc like new $2835 German HK33 new $1716 Turkish, Portuguese other HK clones are cheaper than original HK made weapons FAL STG 58 new $895 Aussie L1A1s various condition levels $149-477 Belgian HB FAL like new $880 Ultimax 100 LMG used $820 SAR 80 used $447 Colt M16A1 used $820 Colt M16A2 used $1340 Those are just the tip of the iceberg of the quantity of makers & models that are in the market here. |

Tuukka, you still have any 20mm guns over there? What prices do they go for? And are there any newly designed assault rifles?
Tuukka, everyone already loves the way Finland is with guns, I'm pretty sure ot beats out both Canada and the USA. And the USA isnt exactly all the same laws all around, where as Finland and Canada dont have seperate laws depending on which political region you live in. But one must admit, Canada is better for guns then California! |

Yes, there are Lahti M39s around here, its not the hottest seller on the market since the ammo isnt that common. For a working Lahti, the price is roughly $2800.
What exactly do you mean by newly designed? |

No AN-94s, i think the piece is still in development in Russia.
I think is assault rifle vise the only thing lacking i can think of now is the G36 family. |
