Default what do you really wish you could own but can't in Canada?

I'd love an unpinned P90 as well as a Walther PPK.

That belt fed conversion 9mm AR would also be sweeeeeeeeet

An army tank able to shoot live rounds. That would literally be a blast.

Ak47, AA12, incendiary rounds and suppressors.
The list could go on but that's my short list.

Silencers. With health and safety and noise pollution what it is in today's world they only make sense. Helps one keep their hearing, and one of the major complaints from people by ranges is the noise. Possibly shouldn't be allowed for hunting, but should be for just regular shooting.

Careful who sees your kid with a bean shooter.

Mg 42, but ammo costs would be a problem.

Ex-calgary Police service revolver would be pretty sweet.

In general though, a simple answer is anything we're not allowed to have.

American streaming services and flavoured chewing tobacco. Some of that cheap cheese and cherry coke/lemon Fanta would be sweet I could call you all on one of them cheap American cell phone plans and tell you all about it if we could have those as well.

I would also settle for a MG-42

AR15
Glock 19
Sound moderators

I know the top two are available in modified form, but I'm not interested in playing their stupid games.

Suppressors, unpinned magazines, and short barrel hand guns.

And well since we are dreaming and all, a RPG would make a nice stocking stuffer.

If I had to pick one it would be suppressors, they would go good with my hard hat and steel toe boots, you know common sense PPE.

A small in size, and lightweight, but large caliber handgun for protection while fly fishing/bow hunting. Rifles work but are large, slow, heavy and unpractical. I'd be happy to do extra background checks and stupid amounts of money for an extra license.
People own them in Canada for ranges so why is is different for citizens to use them for self defence in the wild? I spend top dollar for lightweight bows but have to pack a heavy ass shotgun...

The 2 bold guns are currently available here, albeit with modifications from OEM.

Last month I could have bought a NIB original 1976 Walther PPK (12.6) for $1,000 plus the $200 cost for E. Epps to change the barrel to a 106mm barrel and transfer it to me.

As for the P90, yeah it's not full-auto & the mags are pinned but... Even in the US, not every Joe-blow has the "tax-stamp" required to buy a full-auto. And We just get to practice mag-changes more often !


We just need the laws to change back to what they used to be, pre-bill C51 before Turdeau Sr. ruined firearm ownership in Canada. When the Liberal Party is in power (Turd Sr. / Cretien), we lose gun rights...

Default vintage Savage semi-automatics

Quite like the old Savage 1907 semi-automatic pistols. But short barrel and .32 caliber, two strikes against it. Something to dream about.

Default Thompson Submachine Gun

I would love, love, love to own a Thompson Sub-Machine Gun!

Would be a blast to go to a range with a bottle of Jim Beam with a Tommy

Let's not forget handheld "pistol" crossbows, brass knuckles and balasong.

I guess most of it keeps us safe from the roving gangs of ninjas that used to roam the streets...

The list is long, and I would like an FA or 2, one in .22 LR, and another in a pistol cartridge, or maybe 30 carbine.

Suppressors. Some handier pistols like the Gunblast reviewed Bearcat converted to .327 Federal.

Also some liberal slaves, and responsible government Canada wide.
