Where to buy in Ca?
 

Sorry if this has been asked before but I couldn't find the answer in the FAQ or a couple of other areas:
Is there a list somewhere of the best online airsoft retailers? It seems that none I have found from googling carry a particularly extensive range so it would be useful to know which ones to look at.
Had good experience with Upper Canada Tactical but don't know which ones are recommended.

Google would be your best friend in this case. Just simply look up "airsoft stores canada" or something similar and that'll get you a ton of results.

We're not allowed to post links to stores outside of the Age Verified section.

Ooops sorry

Useful, thanks. My googling did not turn up half those listed by riley so good to know.

Sorry ! Removed...

Guys, did you not see what Wilkie posted?

the ability to read does not make one literate.

(Sorry I asked, some strange rules on here...)

The idea of having age verification was so the airsoft community was to govern it's self and help keep the government out of governing our airsoft. Also to make sure that members were 18 and over to comply with rules. When I was verified a verifier stopped into my home address and saw I was who I said I was and verified I was over 18 years of age. Back then when I was verified a retailer wouldn't sell airsoft guns to non verified people, especially the online people, where a person could say they are over 18 but in fact they weren't

The only reason I still like the AV system is that it ensures people read and understand documents. They take the time to educate themselves and fully understand something and possibly formulate questions that have real substance.

It's like rider contracts for musicians... you ever read the ridiculous shit musicians and performers put in appearance contracts? It's to ensure the reader says 'what the fuck, do you really want only brown m and ms in the candy bowl?" When someone meets these ridiculous requirements or asks about them, you know they have read and understand the entire contract or are willing to ask when shit doesn't make sense to them.

In this day and age you have people asking the most ridiculously plain, unresearched and uneducated questions, that have no effort behind them, when a simple 5 minute google search can yield answers to all if not most of those basic questions, and when you have information, you can formulate better questions that will tell you more than what gun to buy, why it's good, why people like it, why this why that, for example.

It's still also a reasonable method of policing bullshit and potential bullshit for private sales.

Don't feed the troll guys lol

Who's the troll? Me? Is that what you call people who drop by to ask a perfectly reasonable question but are unaware of the bizarre rules and aren't members of your AV clique?

The very reasonable rules are posted clearly for all.

The AV rule started strictly as age verification when a higher level of accountability was needed, especially when Airsoft was in a legal gray area. We've kept it up because not only does it stop youth from obtaining guns anonymously online, but it also makes the community transparent and individually accountable for each person's posts and buying/selling. It has solved hundreds of fraud and trade disputes, made the community safer, stopped other online criminal activities and it's why our forum has not devolved into a bunch of anxty twelve year olds.

Welcome to our house. Please observe the minimum required rules and respects (just like every house) to find a welcoming, albeit imperfect, community... or leave. Your choice.

Get AV'd or go away.
