Sandman no offense but you're kind of posting close to the level of a post whore. Not to act like another mod but watch out...they're like ninjas... deadly, they're going to kill you, but still pretty cool.

Anyways, to avoid making this post pointless (ahem) see if you can't find anyone you know who has some. Friends of friends, cousins, neighbors, etc.

Wow...

They are small plastic spheres. How could they be against any conceivable import regulation?

Good lord. I'm glad I live in America, where we can buy BBs by the truckload with no problem at all. Literally, my little sister could go get some right now. It's amazing what some countries will restrict.

Hell, at 16 you can walk in and get a BB rifle by yourself.

Sixteen bucks for 10 thousand? pfffff Here you go- http://www.wholesalecentral.com/globepr ... atid=73869

Its shipped from Michigan so its not too far away from you. Unfortunately, you have to buy 100 bucks worth of stuff, because its a wholesale place. But 100 bucks would get you 200 thousand bbs. Pretty much a lifetime supply.

I just realized that the cost of shipping would suck, 200 thousand .15g bbs is over 66 pounds. :lol:

Yes, it's called international shipping :roll:

Unless the website says they don't ship to Canada, they will.

Read this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legal_issu ... oft#Canada

Wasn't too hard to find using Google, just searched 'Canada Airsoft Laws' :roll:

Also according to this website it is legal to import accessories and parts but not full guns:
