I have bought other S^W pistols over the years and as a Canadiian we seem to get 3 rate repair service a lot of the time or have to pay for small parts like the plastic tags in the 22A, $1.50 each to us for even one spare when new. The same model S@W model 627 that can be bought on the US side for around $800.00 on sale will cost me over $1400.00 up here. Yes we do pay much more for our toys.
