Google "Canadian Border Services Agency"
Go to the .gov site.
Use Ctrl+F to find "Airsoft"

Read.

Hopefully this is not the nicest reply, I doubt it, but here's to hoping.

If you moved to the states, or asia, then you would not need to bring it across the border at all

Read the Fucking Manual

Since we don't have a 'manual' per se... What Garcia said... but there's a thread right now in the trash about someone's metal MP5 bodies getting seized, and getting a visit from the RCMP too.

The barrel, I dunno actually.

Buy from in Canada. Meaning, a Canadian site or supplier with the product in question already in Canada. Saves you the hassle and worry.

Once you are 18, which is 3 more years for you. You can be AVed and have access to the classifieds for metal bodies; for now you should save your cash and realize how much awesome cash you saved up when your 18

Or go for jailbait while you still can

No, an M4 metal body would not be allowed over the border. In short an upper technically should pass but definitely not a lower. The part of a receiver where the serial number would be located is the restricted portion. On armalite models it would be lower, on an MP5 it would be the upper.

As for a "metal gas pistol barral" you should have no issues importing a barrel.

there is nothing you can't get all it takes is money and time. It isn't like save-on foods where everything is restocked all the time sometimes you will need to special order it and that can take along time but you can get what ever you need.

I'm new to this great forum, but I'm not new to airsoft, and it is disturbing that people, even new to the airsoft world are still try to import metal lower receivers with all the authentic assault rifle marking's and serial numbers. This is why the sport is so poorly regarded by the general public. When you blindly order properly marked lower receivers you scream "I'm trying to order machine gun parts" to the CBSA. Do not order these items, the RCMP will come to your house and they will want an explanation, if you don't have one, you're plain and simple up shits creek with out a paddle. IMO.

Correct and only some retailers will do it and only at certain times.
