It’s been decades since a surplus store in Canada would have had firearms.

We keep our firearms for a very long time and the government doesn't like to sell them on the Canadian market. It's easier to buy foreign surplus rifles than Canadian ones in this country. The HPs which are being replaced by SIGs will not be sold to civilians; they will either go to museums or the Ukrainians.
