I need a gift for a ten year old boy - stat!

But I don't they are illegal, Cdn Tire sells BB guns (along with paintball markers & real fire arms).

That sentence got raped.

Replace don't with doubt and it's only statuatory rape, something you are use to.

he's in Yukon, so that's a pocket knife for them:

I received one of those Rambo knives as a gift when I was his age

I tried to buy one for myself, but the vendor wouldn't let me without parental consent.  I had to trick my father into coming with me.  My parents were not pleased.

Except for their pail o' pucks that is.

Kind of hard to screw up a pail o' pucks. I suppose it *can* be done.

The problem with Canadian Tire is that the quality of their products and service both tend to be quite low. To be honest, I'm not sure how they stay in business, other than the fact that everyone in Canada already has a little stack of that money that they issue sitting in a tin can in their garage. 

Where else are you going to buy a pail of pucks?

Sorry for being late with the title recommendation but you did well with Artemis Fowl.

I'm not sure if those guns are even legal here (Canada). I could  be wrong but I think toy guns that look like the real thing are illegal. Of course, no one in CAnada knows what the real thing looks like gun laws are, cause no one here owns guns actually pays them any attention.

As far as I know there are no laws regulating non-firearm guns, unless they arrived post-Cretien.

No, I believe there are product safety laws that require toy guns to not look like real guns, usually by having some bright orange on them.

Was that part of bill C-68 or an older law? Either way my point stands about ignoring gun laws 

[Barrister]

CC beat me to it. 

He's quoting from s. 84(1) of the Criminal Code, which also defines a replica firearm.

No, I don't believe that's a new amendment.

[crazy canuck]

Not sure what Bill brought it in.  I just looked at the Definition section of PART III
FIREARMS AND OTHER WEAPONS
