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.
