Customs delaying orders...

[Rukus]

Well if you have problems with the prices in Canada you are getting into the wrong sport my friend. It's a simple fact of life be prepared to pay more in Canada. Airsoft in Canada is a hard sport to afford sometimes. But once you own all the gear you only want more. And on a side note I got my mag orders from red wolf without being checked too just in time for my milsim.

Dam 2 packages go through sent from WGC, than DenTrinity. Than once again my items from Uncompany get tag for customs. I think customs has a thing for packages sent from them or items sent to me from them.

You cant even order an airsoft seburo, it doesnt look like any gun known of today, but many have tried and many have lost it.

Customs maybe getting busy, or they just ran out of "opened" tape. I recieved a mag for my KJ m700 the other day and the package was noticeably cut open and taped back together with packing tape, and not even straight, it was fairly crooked. With christmas coming their influx of packaging must be fairly intense.
Still tooka month from the time it was ordered to the time recieved though. Still waiting on my KJ m9 mags at the moment.

The frustrating part is out of all three packages coming to me the one I really wanted, is the one customs chooses to give a closer inspection. Nothing in there thats a NO NO, just some odds and ends I need.

The velcro gloves would enable the...sheep sexer? sheep fornicator? sheep fucker? To properly hand onto to the sheep. Now if they position the sheep on the edge of the cliff, each thrust would cause the sheep to think they were being pushed over the hedge and they would push back. In theory it would work. But I dont really have the urge to fornicate with a sheep.

Maybe a bear though.
Wooooo Bear Fucker!

how about wearing rubber boots and placing the back leg into the boots....

Excellent idea....there are a few members of asc who enjoy sheep that may reward you for this knowledge!

Get used to it. We all do.

Thanks, mcguyver, I'm getting used to it sooner than I thought

How about the outer barrel? Can I order (import) an outer barrel from the US or Asia?
I need an outer barrel for my TM Thompson, as it arrived here broken, the tab that attaches the barrel to the receiver has broken and the outer barrel has fallen off the gun.

So, whats the deal? Do I need some sort of certificate or something in case customs does get a hold of an airsoft gun that I have purchased, Haven;t ordered any yet, just wondering because it seems like there aren't many canadian retailers anymore, atleast no reasonably priced ones..
P.S. If someone knows of one, can they let me know?

TNT finally sent me a bill for that delivery I thought wouldn't be charged $$$$ for...Nothing is free I guess!

[Griffin]

Wow took that long to send bill? talk about giving you a Merry Christmas.

I've had a green laser and a eotech clone in customs since nov.6th.
Shipped from hong kong.

[Dirtbag]

Everything from hong Kong is at least 10 to 20 days to clear. I do R/C helo as well as airsoft and those parts average 15 days 1 day from Hong Kong 15 days in customs. Airsoft will take longer, with the upswing in gang and drug activity all orders from Asia will take a long time in customs, at least in Vancouver.

[Griffin]

Ummm last time I check at least in T.O the gang bangers were shooting each other with real pistols and not airsoft guns. As for customs I have order a lot as of late and only once has it stayed in customs for 1 week. Pretty much everything else either goes right through with no inspection, or a few get a short visit.

Ordered 2 packages fr Hong Kong on Dec 03. Both arrived in Canada Dec 07. One was recieved on the 20th, the other is still in BC - hasnt even gone to customs yet according to the tracking.
