There's lots of 22 handguns that can be converted to 9mm. Cz Kadet models for example. Also, you can import guns through places like IRunGuns

Only problem is finding the complete kadet pistol

Buy it out of the US and import it.

I like the idea. I wonder what the chances are that the import comes in and the CFO rejects it for whatever reason, despite my exemption. Now I’ve got a handgun in Canada stuck at the importer that I paid for. I’d have to get a new letter issued to get a different model but that’s easy enough.

They shouldn't reject it, but you never really know. I do intend on trying it since I have one in the shop. Just need to get off my ass and get the letter.

Sorta. Been working on getting Olyimpic shooting going at my local range.
