Thanks Theodore: The list is comprised of those I have recently seen on Canadian sites. Our market is quite different from yours. Even nice guns languish for sale over long periods and may not sell, even though they are listed well below your market, at auction or on-line. Interest in gun ownership here has waned significantly since the introduction of a variety of control measures in the 1990's. Our newly minted majority Conservative government will be eliminating the long gun registry but there remains a lot of bureaucracy to navigate regardless.

Should I encounter a nice English gun that is crying to get back to shooting upland and I also like the look of it, I'll take your assertion to heart:
