Hi Guys

Thanks for the help

Greetings!

There is a forum called Canadian Gunnutz and they have the largest Equipment Exchange section. By far it is the best in Canada. Join it and then get permission to join the Equipment Exchange section which has numerous categories. I have been using it for years. It is great for me as I live out in the sticks and I can get anything I need through this site and pick it up at the post office.

canadiangunnutz.com

One thing I will say is that the big bores are not selling as well as they did a few years ago. Lots of guys are unloading their "safari" rifles, so the market is rather soft. With Covid screwing everyone over for traveling, shitty times in Alberta, inflation, and aging boomers who are hunting less or getting out of it altogether, there are a lot of the larger caliber rifles for sale. Probably the most I have seen in years.

That said, there are always guys thinking they want to play with dangerous game rifles, so give it a try.

Have a good weekend.

There are a couple of good firearm auctions out there, Prices seem to be good, even after the associated cost. I've dealt with these guys.

Canadian Access to Firearms.

It's a format like a big newspaper. Comes out monthly. I subscribe to it but I never have advertised in it.

I have used GunNutz a few times and it works.

VS, Hello again, Here is another idea.
I recently advertised a CZ 458 Lott on Africa Hunting, classified. A gent in Texas bought it and it is in route to him through BorderView Brokers. They will handle all the paperwork for about $400,USD I think. Brian

What Skyline said:

CanadianGunNutz is easily the best online source for buying and selling firearms in Canada.

What is so great about it, is every firearms offer selling is basically a live auction.

Buddy posts a gun (or 10 guns) for sale, lists the guns features, may post pictures. Starting price plus terms of the sale.

If there are no immediate buyers at initial offer price, most times the price gets adjusted down an amount.
And guys will slowly drop price until that particular gun falls into someone's buying price point.

There is tremendous number of guns cycling through daily. All great firearms bought and sold.

Phil...Brian Canada is right. Profit River will handle the import of firearms into Canada but they do not export firearms. On their website they recommend using Borderview International Firearms Logistics for exporting guns from Canada to the US of A. Smiler

You may want to reach out to Ralf Martini. He sells guns on his website. He is out of Cranbrook. He is a custom gun builder but sells on the side.

Unless it is a high dollar item that is a expensive add on.
