Tl;dr Should I pay over double and settle for a Shadow Systems before time runs out or should I risk waiting for a Glock 19 which is what I really want? Scared for them to ban purchase/transfer and I'll end up with nothing. Long story short I had a Glock 19 while I served overseas as a PMC and I hold it dear to my heart. After 6 very long months I finally got my RPAL today. Glock 19's have been out of stock everywhere since the Trudeau announcement. Today, the day I get my RPAL, I got an email from Firearms Outlet Canada that they got a shipment of 19's. I'm usually a person who always has his phone on him and checks its religiously. Today, of all days, I had guests over and to be polite I put my phone on the side. To my surprise, I checked my phone and see that FOC got a shipment of 19's at 06:21pm. After over 2 months of being out of stock everywhere, the day I get my RPAL and the one day I don't check my phone, is the day they restock 19's. Needless to say by the time I saw the email they were out of stock. I'm broken.
