Can we still buy handguns? I knew there are some changes but I didn’t exactly follow it. I checked online shops where I used to buy handguns, but they don’t have any! Thanks.

Yes you can, most are just out of stock.

Out of stock and no more can be (legally) imported. What you see is what you get.

Unless you are a criminal looking to buy a gun smuggled in to Canada, nothing is being done about those.
