    I saw these quite some time ago. Is it even possible to get them into Canada? I dont think that they can be mailed.

    I don't know if they'd be illegal- but definetly something the mail/couriers might have issues transporting. Also, Royal Mail in the UK has recently stated they are enacting a policy of shipping NO gun/airgun parts through their system any longer- so this might put a further monkey-wrench into things- even for people in the UK.

    I sent them a note asking about their products- we'll see if they respond.
    I'd say I care- but I'd probably be lying...

    Ha ha ha... What is the world coming too? It is a sorry cycle that we go from concern, to restriction, to prohibition to black market dealing.

    Hey buddy... Wanna buy a airgun? What's next? Airgun-runners?

    The bad guys seem able to get any kind of gun they want. It is only the law abiding that do with out.

    Firebird took awhile to get back to me- and stated they are not "approved" to ship their targets outside of the UK at this point.

    I suspect this means they really don't know how to ship things- a carrier able to handle "hazardous materials"- assuming these would be classified as such- is common (i.e. all the "big name" couriers can do it- Fedex, UPS, DHL, etc.) so who knows if something will ever come out of them.
    I'd say I care- but I'd probably be lying...
