Meanwhile in Canada (No ammo shortage there?)

[Catskillkid]

From the Firearms subreddit on reddit. Supposedly taken at a gun store in Canada.


Are they not experiencing an ammo shortage???

 

[togmaster]

Blame it on Canada

 

[Carlos Hathcock]

To be fair, its not A gun store in Canada, its THE gun store in Canada. Don't need much amount with no guns to load it in.

Is it me or does that kind of look like Bullet Guys store when he was open?

 

[Saltwater60]

If there is no social unrest there why would you need to buy it?

Too bad the stupid border is closed still.

If we all run across at once the Mounties can't catch us all.

Wouldn’t be able to bring it back anyway.

" Any individual can import up to 5,000 rounds of small arms cartridges into Canada without an import permit if they are for personal use (i.e., not for resale). If you plan to resell the cartridges or to import more than 5,000 rounds, you need an import permit. Similarly, you can export and transport in-transit up to 5,000 rounds of small arms cartridges for personal use without an export and transport in-transit permit, but you need a permit if you plan to resell the cartridges or to export and transport in-transit more than 5,000 rounds.

Importing, exporting and transporting ammunition and propellant powders

Are you planning to bring ammunition or propellant powders into Canada, or to send them from Canada to another country, or to transport them in or through Canada?

I'm not 100% sure this applies to driving it across the border, but it seems like it probably does.

So if one buys and brings back 4,999 rounds for personal use it is ok.

The way I read it is that you can bring back 5,000 rounds for personal use. That's ok. If you bring back 5,001 rounds that's when it becomes a problem.

Ammo manufacturing need to stop shipping any ammo to Canada! They will make much more money keeping it here.

Joke all you want, if they hadn't pussed out we'd know if there were aliens in Area 51 by now.

If you want to import weapons or ammunition, you must do so through a licensed importer, dealer or manufacturer.

This is for importing into Canada, not the other way around.

Canada doesn't make the rules for bringing items INTO the US. When you come back across the border, you will be talking to a US CBP agent. Their rules are the ones that matter.

Yeah, that's true. It's kind of a moot point anyway I think because I just read somewhere in my searching that you must have a Canadian PAL (Possession and Acquisition License) to buy any ammo there in the first place.

Hey, they need someone to do the landscaping too.

Would extraterrestrials be considered illegal aliens?

I agree. Everyone knows Area 51 is a red herring and the government is hiding the aliens elsewhere.
