Application / Regulation advice Sales tax on first Nations territory.

Hi,

As a law‑abiding citizen, I’m trying to find out whether gun stores on First Nations territory charge sales tax on firearms and ammunition. I’d hate to drive two hours only to discover they don’t charge it. Does anyone know? I’m especially wondering about Kahnawake. I'm not a member of the First Nations.

Thanks in advance!

Kahnawake doesn’t charge tax. You can always call lahache shooting range or Mccomber’s archery and ask though.

They do they just add it to the price and put up a sign no tax, but if you compare prices youll notice. 1 time i noticed there was a saving on 1 item was 50$ cheaper at la hache if you included tax at the other spot.. but the drive , the service and warranty seemed more convenient to pay the 50$ extra
