Default Use archery equipment???

Are there any other places online for used archery equipment in Calgary? I heard there was one on Facebook but you’re not allowed to sell weapons there. Anybody know what it’s called?
I’m looking for a starter bow for my 14-year-old son.

Lots of beginner weight bows on kijiji. I bought one last night and there are a bunch to choose from.

Thanks everyone.
I’m being kind of picky.
I don’t want a toy bow.
Something like a Diamond Infinate edge with a lot of adjustability would be ideal.

x2 on the diamond infinite edge. It's what I've been using for 3 seasons now. 1 bull moose, 1 whitetail buck and 2 mule deer bucks. No issues.

Just picked up Diamond Infinate edge with a TruBall release and 6 arrows for $300 off Kijiji. Had to drive an hour and a half to pick it up in Red Deer.
But it looks like it’s hardly been used.
