How’s the orice cause some places are selling those for 1800 1 mag or 1900 :/

1

u/GinnAdvent Aug 04 '22

Price gone up about 100 to 200 dollars.

Some of them have no discount like Deagle unlike before.

u/knine71551 Aug 04 '22

It’s really like 200-300$ because now they’re selling with not 3 mags but just 1 mag nkw

1

u/GinnAdvent Aug 04 '22

Yeah, and those mags can be anywhere between 40 to 99 dollars too.

But it's better than 1 to 2 mags so just the norm now.

u/knine71551 Aug 04 '22

Yup exactly it’s quite the price change though ooof

1

u/GinnAdvent Aug 04 '22

I think more people are willing to pull the trigger now despite the price hike due to that it will likely be your last pistol until something else changes, and I think at very minimum 3 mags for sure

u/knine71551 Aug 04 '22

I think the market is clearly calming down and being less of a frenzy though not everything is selling anymore

u/GinnAdvent Aug 04 '22

For more rare ones, they are still flying off the shelves. For more plentiful ones, it takes a while to move them.

One store is selling the basic Sig P320 for like almost 1k, that barely sell any at all. While other stores selling for 740 to 799 ea got cleared out pretty quick.

It’s funny cause somehow Glock is now considered rare all the Turkish clones and wtc are just sitting there

1

u/GinnAdvent Aug 04 '22

Yeah, because only importers like Irungun and ArmEast are bringing them in, but that's about it.

Other than that, you see more CZ, SA, Walther, and Sig. Lesser degree include MagRe, HK, SW, Beretta, and Ruger.

There are. Always steady stream of milsurp too.

It’s Glock Canada too it’s just weird cause in the states they are so abundant and cheap

1

u/GinnAdvent Aug 04 '22

Yeah, I bet they sell like hot cakes now being the rarest one.

I heard Stoger Canada stop importing Beretta from Italy due to the potential handgun freeze, so maybe the larger importers don't want to risk it. Some stores are even pre ordering for them.

1

u/knine71551 Aug 04 '22

I saw that Stoger said they wouldn’t do it anymore on CGN so the last batch of Barrettas was it until September passes

u/GinnAdvent Aug 04 '22

Just saw Tenda has some Glock, but their selection is a bit interesting, lol

2

u/knine71551 Aug 04 '22

I feel like the freeze ain’t gonna happen the cops are on our side

1

u/knine71551 Aug 05 '22

I’m sorry to tell you but that won’t matter as long as they pass it at parliament it won’t matter.

1

u/Strange-Extension-28 Aug 05 '22

Let’s hope I’d doesn’t pass maybe something modified version of it the complete handgun freeze is a joke.

1

u/knine71551 Aug 05 '22

Trudeau will do anything to pass it cause then he’ll say he did something even though it achieves nothing
