It's a side effect of US buying. Ultimately most Canadian guns originate in the US, so while stores and distributors are well stocked at the moment as soon as they run out of what they have on hand at the moment things will get bad up here too. We're already out of 9mm pistols where I work and running low on small pistol and small rifle primers, and what I've been hearing from suppliers is that it's going to get worse before it gets better.
The exception to this will be stuff thats not sold in the US, like Norinco. But if it gets to the point where that's all that's available, it'll become hard to get by default.
