Buy recommendations Used market near Ottawa?

My PAL/RPAL arrived last week - YAY!!!

Was thinking about picking up a used LR 22 bolt action rifle to get started...and save my $ for a shotgun and higher power rifle.

What are the good sites that I can search locally? Don't want to deal with mailed guns. Would want to drive to location, have a look at, etc.

Also, feel free to talk me out of this. Just figured there might be a few folks who have bought new and quickly moved on up.

Although you just said you don’t want to deal with mailed guns, intersurplus out of Québec is dirt cheap for some really cool guns. Mailing guns with Canada post is super simple: if I’m not home, they drop off a card and I pick it up the next day.

That said, intersurplus does do gun shows in Ontario a few times a year so that’s an option too

Ok, cool, thank you! I do visit QC fairly often, but limited mostly to the Outouais region!
