Just got my PAL/RPAL issued (originally mailed in March) and have been looking for Glocks - specifically a 9mm G19 gen. 4 or 5. I’m located in the Toronto area. Any tips on locating one as most, if not all, sites are sold out? Are stores still importing handguns with the introduction of Bill C-21?

Arms East has 17s in stock unless you're stuck on 19s. I don't think area matters unless you want to handle one (kind of difficult currently), all the online retailers ship.

Are these guys legit? I was going through their website the other day and most of the pages/links seem broken. Thought it a bit odd they’re still selling G17s but haven’t updated their other stock in weeks.

They are legit and responding to CGN as recent as a few days ago. No idea about the stock though, might want to give them a call or ask them on CGN.
