Hey r/canadaguns,

Like many of you, I relied on ArsenalForce to find prices, firearms, and ammunition across Canadian retailers. When it went down, I felt that gap hard… manually checking a dozen stores to find the best deal on ammo or track down a specific rifle is nobody's idea of a good time.

I'm a firearms enthusiast and an engineer, so I decided to build and improve what I wished still existed. After too many sleepless nights, MapleGun.ca is live.

What it does:

MapleGun lets you search every firearm, ammo box, and piece of gear for sale in Canada instantaneously. No more opening 50 tabs to find the best prices. Filter by what actually matters: in stock, price, caliber, deals...

What's coming next:

Price history so you can see if that "sale" is actually a deal ;)
Watchlists with alerts when something you want drops in price
If you want to add any new retail, reach out!

I built this for myself first, but I want it to work for the community. If something feels off, a feature is missing, or you have ideas to make it more useful, I genuinely want to hear them.

Keeping it alive:
ArsenalForce going down was a reminder that projects like this cost real money to keep running. I don't want MapleGun to disappear the same way. I've set up a Patreon so folks who find it useful can chip in a few bucks a month to help cover hosting and keep the site free for everyone.

Give it a try at maplegun.ca and let me know what you think. Feedback, suggestions, bug reports - all welcome!

Never lose hope and make the most of our current circumstances, lads.

My First Gun, FN 502 Tactical. Never shot a firearm in my life, but this is my first gun for training purposes, just imported from the USA (Arizona) via IRG. The extended magazines are pinned to 10. It came very oily so had to wipe it thoroughly with paper towels. The enclosed reflex micro red dot (probably used the wrong screws) and tactical light are add-ons from Amazon. I got my RPAL just for this.

Buying Oakley tactical gloves for peak first person larp.

Got my 22 exemption recently and had the joy of picking up this puppy in the mail. Any pointers for someone new to pistol shooting?

Remembering when my birthday was a great time to express myself, not so much these days 😔

Still have some wood finishing (clear coat, maybe stain it darker?) to do, and have to put in the MLOK rail inserts. But she's coming along!

Oh yeah and a clamp-on muzzle brake just for fun.

Just want to take a family picture while I still can

Type 81m

Ruger Blackhawk

Remington/Baikal sxs SPR 200F

Remington 700 in AICS chassis

Ruger 10/22 in B-TM stock

S&W TRR8

M16A4

Type 97

This is my rifle, there are many like it, but this one is mine.

Sad to have sold it to mike from canmore on december 3rd, 2024

Recently got my exemption. Located in Alberta. Happy to answer questions.

Got it today, not sure how to take down the stock (might just be very tight) but included my feet for yall

This is my block II SOPMOD inspired Tm22 so far.

I just need some FDE ladder rail panels🪜and the top charging handle.

Someone ask Nathalie if my .22 is too "Assault Styled" and too scary and dangerous to own. 😆

The high capacity magazine holds over 100 rounds!!!!......10 rounds and 90+ in the bottom for storage and weight haha.

Inspired by some bs I found on gunpost. When I saw a used ati stock at my LGS I knew what I had to do.

Still waiting on a FDE stock and a vortex defender to replace the shitty red dot

Happy I pulled the trigger on this, guns extremely compact as it should have been when it first came out.

I’ve owned 3 so far and this one is by far my favourite

Just hit up the ol bass pro

I keep saying im done but........

Thanks for all the help everyone, after several question posts, I got it.

I was on the hunt for cleaner examples, but certain Gunpost members were really hosing people. Did I still buy it for inflated prices? Yes. Are there better condition ones out there? Yes. But at least I got to check it out in person. And I now own an SKS.

All matching 1963 Chinese. I'll get a tickler soon if the prices don't go even more insane, but I've wanted an SKS since I shot one at a friend's house 15 years ago, and as massive as my list of wants is, I just couldn't move on until I had one.

Also, Cosmoline is no joke. I looked at it wrong and now my next 3 generations of offspring are covered in it. I'll take cleaning tips as it's far worse than expected.

Happy Canada Day with a Colt Canada Flat-Top, Heavy-Barrel Carbine. Identical (less full-auto) to the service carbine that I carried overseas in 2008....

New (to me) is this OIC 12(5) HK-93 5.56mm/.223 cal Sporting/Utility Rifle, purchased through Switzer's April 2026 Auction. It accepts proprietary 25, 30 and 40-round 5.56mm magazines, the latter being aluminum manufacture for light weight. Note the original South African ARMSON-brand Occluded-Eye Gunsight (OEG) in the 2nd photo, which was effectively the world's first mass-produced "red dot" sight in which one eye sees the dot on a black background and the other eye sees the target and surrounding terrain, over which the red dot appears. It takes some practice, but works quite well with some basic familiarity.
