    Various questions

    Can I order ammo from the website?
    Can I order magazines from the website that would require being pinned?

    That's all I can think of at the moment.

    Hey there Lone-wolf,

    If you are Canadian with a pal you can order ammo off any Canadian website.(Keep in mind where you are and shipping costs)

    Somebody else can take the next question but I'm pretty sure you need them pinned before you can buy them here in Canada.

      Mags have to be pinned, I believe, before they are even allowed into the country. Until they are pinned they are a prohibited device.

      Cheers!

        This is how I have read it as well. Unless pinned it can't be imported.

          Can places like Marstar not import them and pin them themselves?

            I think you guys are missing the point...

            Aztech is selling off their website, to both american and canadian customers.
            So, I have to ask if they'll pin the magazines they sell on their site.

                No kidding, but that doesn't tell me if the company is pinning them or if I'm stuck ordering 10/10rd magazines.

                  Well you need to find out. It may not be illegal for them to ship them, but it sure as hell will be illegal for you to get them here if they're not pinned.

                  Your only other option if you live close to the border is to order them to a us mail or parcel receiving service (there are many and cheap, only costs when the parcel comes in) and then go and pin them yourself before bringing it back across the border. Take some snap caps to show the guard i guess.

                    Holy, why do you think I'm asking the question on their subforum, if not to find out? lol

                      LOL - well perhaps i phrased that poorly, i meant you should probably get them to clarify specifically what state they ship the mags in directly

                        Yes you can order ammo from us. However, our regular shipping cost do not apply as it is very expensive to ship once in Canada.

                        As for magazines, if you order any magazine from us we pin or block it as required. If you would like us to import a magazine you acquired from another source in the US we charge $10 per mag to make them Canada legal. It is correct that they must be made legal before we import them or CBSA gets to keep them.

                          Awesome, I already seen some good prices on your website for hard to find(or crazy expensive) magazines in Canada.

                            We have a lot of products available that are not loaded on the site as well, so if you don't see it just ask and we can likely get it for you.

                              Oh....we had that discussion with the CFO inspector when we were getting our firearm dealers license. There is exactly ONE way to pull that off. You MUST have a contract with a government agency that is allowed to buy unpinned magazines. Even then, ordering in a bunch in that aren't done, and pinning half of them to be sold to the public is not allowed. That being said, I know of at least one retailer who's doing it quietly. No, it's not us. No it's not Marstar (that I know of) and I'm not going to elaborate because that's just being a rat. I just know it's being done.

                              The official answer is NO NO NO, they aren't allowed to do that.
