Prophet River, Bashaw Sports and P&D are the only two who sell any volume of used. Ellwood Epps in Ontario probably carries ten time the used inventory of them combined. IF you are looking for something specific search CGN and AO. A lot better likelihood of finding it. Also, if you can find one in the States, Prophet or IRGuns will bring it up for you as will Borderview.

The Calgary Cabelas location has a used/consignment gun section. I assume their other stores will as well.

Better check the credit card limit. Scary what these things are selling for. CanadianGunnutz has an extensive for sale section, might find one there.

Sounds like Torrington is having a gun show at the end of the month, and Olds is having one right away as well.
Might be a good place to look.
Even if you don't see one on the table, those guys have feelers out, and can usually track something down with a couple calls.

M24 in sask

Not the typical tang break but that's pretty much the price they're are going for these days. There was a really nice one on sale in Cochrane probably 3 months ago... that sucker was up for quite a while too.

Fun gun though, my old man has one in great shape that i'm eagerly awaiting to get passed down.

Last time I was through there a couple of weeks ago I was surprised to see the used gun section totally empty. Not sure if that is a temporary or permanent thing.

Savage 24 is still made. You can buy new ones in many places. They don't look or feel like the old ones but they work. If you want a used one and insist it is here in Alberta where u can do a face to face deal u could be looking for a long time. Most guys that have them just pass them down to their kids. There aren't that many that actually change hands in a year all across Canada.

TNT gun works in Regina usually has a pretty substantial used inventory. Their prices can be pretty high though.

David Henry has one ( close at least) listed in the for sale section.
But now I see the original poster is banned anyway.

Him getting banned was no loss. He was basically a troll. I sent him specific guns for sale in Alberta, Sask, BC and the rest of Canada. At least a dozen, he just kept posting he couldn't find any. If you check his other posts they were worse yet. Many threads he would ask for help and then just keep repeating the question or bending it slightly and pretending the answers weren't getting to the point. He even went to posting false reports of a legitimate business being closed permanently, which is what finally got him banned. I have no idea what fun these yahoos get out of this type of thing but glad he is gone.

Hmm or maybe he specifically asked for in alberta in his title. He asked for a savage 24 and you say they still make them, which they dont. which you might say is posting a false report, as you put it. I also seen and have a photo of his website saying permanently closed which you also seen on another thread, which is maybe where he got this from.

Do you know this is what really got him banned 100 %?
