Unfortunately in Canada airsoft does not work like it does in the rest of the world. Well that's not true, the game is the same but the details about how airsoft guns get into Canada and how they exist in Canada are a fair bit different. Pricing in Canada is a significantly higher than that of anywhere else in the world. Due to the fact that only certain business and people can import airsoft guns prices are much higher due to shipping, freight, brokerage, retailer mark up and supply and demand costs.

Hate to be a bubble buster but a budget of $200 is not really gonna help much. Its a good start dont get me wrong. Evens gotta start somewhere and its understandable if a person does not want to sink that much money into something right off the bat. However when it boils down to the truth its buy crap buy twice or even more. Its better to learn about the basics first so you can gain the knowledge to make a decent decision so you can understand why things are the way they are, why guns cost the prices they do and whats good. You will quickly learn that the Crosman R76 is not good and no money should be invested towards it.

If you are still interested in a 416 style airsoft gun the least I can tell you is that brands like JG and VFC occasionally pop up in this websites buy and sell section. However in order to access it you require this websites age verification. Its nothing huge, just a screening processes this website has in order to find out if a person is the age of legal majority (18). Its not so much a maturity thing as their are adults that act immature its more of a legality issue. As it stands people under the age of 18 cannot be legally held responsible for their actions and fault would fall on that of parents or guardians if something were to happen. Give the nature of airsoft Im sure you can understand. If you are interested in age verification just pop on over to this link and read through the details and find someone in your area.

Once you have Age verification you will be able to access the buy and sell and even access the online retailer listings.

I hope that answers all your questions.
