Grenades and Importation
 

Okay, blah blah blah restricted items and CBSA confiscating everything that comes across the border, what about M24 stick grenades and WW2 replica stuff?(Panzerfaust, etc)Anyone know anything?

From my local surplus owner:

"Fucking Impossible."

Nope. If it looks like a gun or prohibited item (grenade, etc) or is a real world gun or grenade it'll most likely get seized.

militarytour.com has replica M24s

they are located in Canada

i've ordered my panzerfaust and m24 from militarytour.

the only guns and grenades you could order (i believe, so correct me if i am wrong) are these:

Well, CanadaPost has officially stated that they refuse to ship replica explosive devices and blank rounds.

its a blue gun! if that doesn't say fake, i dont know what would!

lol, thx guys, didn't know MilitaryTour was in Canada. Hmmm, now to figure out how to make the panzerfaust shoot a m203 . . .

What happens when you paint a real gun blue? Does it loose its ability to fire bullets?

maybe things have changed. but i had a total of 6 de-milled grenages shipped into Canada last year in 2 separate packages and had no problems at all. bought them on ebay and they were shipped from the states 2x Pineapple, 2x Lemon and 2x baseball

There has never been any Canadian law against importing, acquiring, possessing or transferring replica explosive devices, but that just means it's up to the whims of any government and shipping agents involved. "No law against" these days seem to simply mean an easier time contesting any seizure.

I don't think there's a legal issue. CanadaPost just doesn't want to have to evacuate the place and call in the bomb squad if a package breaks open and a realistic pinless pineapple desk toy bounces out of a box like the last time.

CanadaPost can implement policies that don't have to be law.

if you make it out of plastic and remove all moving parts than yes;)

but jokes aside, i do see your point. i never thought of it like that.

Make your own grenades?
 

Some of the ingredients can be ordered from the state's.......... particularly from gunbroker. The Pin, and the strap portions can be ordered.
Pineapple's grenade could be turned down in a lathe from wood . I had considered making some potato masher grenades two years ago............. but then I became very lazy.
