Hello everyone, I have a small question regarding firearms dealers in Canada and their assortments.
I am looking for somebody who sells Dan Wesson pistols, particularly the Razorback 10mm (I realized a .45 Win Mag would be utterly impractical for me) and would export it to my country. The main reason for this is that, sadly, Dan Wesson does not have any dealers in Europe whatsoever and importing a gun from the US would not only come with a big extra cost but also a load of paperwork exceeding anything I've seen in any other country. Thus, a Canadian dealer seems like the way to go in this regard. My only problem is that I have very little knowledge of Canadian arms dealers, hence why I am asking here.

Thank you all in advance, I'd be happy to hear from you.

Hi. That might be difficult. You can talk to Clay Smiley at Prophet River in Alberta. He might be able to help.

There is a dealer in the Ottawa Valley but for the life of me I cannot remember the name. I bought some magazines from him. Sorry for my senior moment.

Wolverine Sports is also pretty good.

Brother Keith;
Good evening to you sir, it's been too long since I've said hello, but I do trust all is well as can be in your world and with your family.

The particular fly in the ointment for our 'Fire companion from Germany is finding a dealer who is licensed to export out of country.

As far as I'm aware there's only a couple who do that, one is I Run Guns or something like that and I have no personal experience with them at all.

So far in my dealings with Clay Smiley at Prophet River, I've not had him move anything in or out of the country for me, but I have bought a few arms from him and had him sell some oddball collector guns that weren't moving locally.

I too have been exceptionally satisfied in all ways with Clay - well and the rest of the staff there at Prophet River for that matter.

All the best to you all Brother Keith and good luck to the OP on getting the Dan Wesson.

Dwayne

Have you tried a CZ dealer in your country? Being that Dan Wesson is owned by CZ they may be able to help.

Thank you all for the quick and good advice. I'll try to call Mr. Smiley later today and ask if he can help me.
My local CZ dealer might also be worth a call, too, although I think the stuff they carry is produced in Europe and not brought in from CZ US. I'll report back shortly.

Clay will advise him.

I have used Clay and I Run Guns to bring firearms into the country. It's just some extra paperwork to satisfy the feds and the wait. I even got a t shirt from IRG. 😆

Both Clay and IRG are experienced, but I prefer dealing with Clay.
