The CT in Kenora has a better stocked gun shop than the LeBaron in Ottawa.....LARGE selection of new and used guns, ammo, optics, powder, bullets, primers......
Most all the stores in the southern part of the province have few to no guns. My local one only stocks ammo.
The CT in Belleville is run by Matt Seeley. Fishes many tournies and wins, sponsors include Canadian Tire among others. They have almost everthing for fishing and I mean everthing. Stuff I used to have to order online or travel two hours for are now there. I now go there for prices and selection and availibilty, I 've made my last trip to the bass pro. He offers guiding and techniques and is very helpful with anything that has to do with fishing. They carry a very nice Shimano dropshot rod for 189.00, wife probably won't bite on that one.
I went to one of the stores in Windsor yesterday and asked the sports manager if they are going to carry guns again. He said no and there was no talk of it. He hinted that ammo was hard enough to do and said that it must be stores in the north that are thinking about it.
I have also been to the one in Kenora and can say they have one of the best selections in Ontario. Every store can carry what they choose out of the regular Can Tire product line up but they can sell whatever they like as long as they get the proper license if needed. If I remember correctly, the Kenora location also has a Marina at the waterfront!
Bought my first Grohmann #1 knife and sheath from a Canadian Tire in the '70's with my paper route money. Wish they'd all get serious about selling quality gear again.....
Hey Toddy that would be because a few local businessman are strating up a new hunting store to Rival what Quinte Outdoor was back in the Rick Wright Days these guys are coming in with the products we want and the knowledge and customer service that Canadian Tire and the Other guy in Belleville Lack bigtime. My understanding is that they are avid outdoorsman that were tired of the drive to the GTA also check them out opening beginning of July I think the name is Highfalls Outfitters.
And one of their names is Big Harv.
Holy Frankenpost Batman!
Apparently, Welland CT has a pretty good selection...so does Port Colborne according to my neighbour....so some of the stores in the south west are still carrying...
