Hello all I’ve been doing displays for a long time but I have been using the same few suppliers all the time. I had a request this year for July 1st for a 12inch finally shell. All my regular suppliers top out at 8, saying it is difficult to get bigger now days. Everyone seems to have mortars though!
I have everything in place for the shot, I’m looking for a vendor any suggestions? I know I’m running out of time and I do have a back up plan, fingers crossed I can deliver.
I’m close to Winnipeg Manitoba but but deal with Hands mostly , I’m willing to bring it from any where in Canada.

No one has brought authorized 1.1g into the country in 5 years, due to China halting the shipping of 1.1g
Whatever is left is dwindling to zero and price to deter purchase ($1900 per shell)
until alternatives can be sourced almost no one is shooting the unless it’s at retail pricing
The Only 12” that come in now are from the now scarce American stock and that’s only for international competition
I’m supprised you weren’t aware of the auth list, seems a little odd?

I have 10” and 12” but they’re not going to be cheap
Or cheap to ship
We charge a lot for a 12” shell and you need an ERAP to ship them
I’d suggest using multiple 8” and avoid the cost

The Authorised List means just that, it is authorised for importation but it doesn't mean the products are actively coming into the country. Many many products on that list aren't in stock in Canada.
