Canadian gun nutz is filled with scammers lately.
My opinion is they've been hacked.
Hacked bad
Admin has been telling people to change passwords and enable 2 step verification.
Lots of new accounts claiming to be owners of old accounts.
It's a real shit show, I don't trust any deals there now.

CGN is probably a hacker's wet dream. Tens of thousands of accounts with deceased owners with shit like "doggy12" as their password, which would take a day at most to brute force into. Hack an account because security on the site is non-existent, scam people with it, and rinse and repeat multiple times a week.

maybe the mods should make a "caution" category for stores like them. stores that exist but have a long history of being difficult to work with or regularly shaft customers. gun deals has a reputation system like that

I think we've got enough easily searchable threads on them over the years for interested people to form their own opinions, with out making it official sub policy to avoid otherwise legit retailers. People do regularily make posts giving reviews or asking for them.
People falling for the scams on this page would become victims of crime, theft, identity theft, which we want to prevent as much as possible.

they're drop shippers but not legit scammers

But they claim everything is in stock, when in fact most stuff has to ship from overseas - taking weeks. And there’s no returns. Best to call it a scam site as everyone otherwise has to learn the hard way.

They have a very slow response time, but they're not a scam.
They worked with me via email to source a knife I wanted and get it across the border.

bulkammocanada(.com) looks fishy to me.
I was shopping O/U yesterday and saw a Weatherby Orion 1 with pictures of the sporting model at 2022 prices and long generic descriptions that even lists competitor stores (lol)
