I found the shotgun that perfectly met my needs. Unfortunately this gun isn't available anywhere in Canada, but for sale in Cabelas US.
While searching for available options I came across the company called "I run guns" who seems to import the shotgun to Canada for $200.

http://www.irunguns.ca/import-process.php

Did anyone have an experience with them or any other companies importing the shotguns from US?

Whats the shotty?
If its not available in Canada, it may fall under some stupid law we have....

Never heard of that importer, but that doesn't mean they're bad; just never heard of 'em.

X2 not sure what shotguns would not be available here unless its a production thing I know Stoeger's 3500 was available in the us a year before canada but I would think if its legal it is or at least will be available here

I'd ask here for th shotgun first. Then look to IRUNGUNS who seem to have a pretty good reputation on importing guns on CGN, but i've never used them.

Already asked everywhere I possible could, including Browning headquarter in Quebec, nobody has it. The gun discontinued in 2012, so I think Cabelas sells their leftovers.

Good luck with Bass Pro Canada apparently they forward you to a call desk in the us one of my waterfowl partners tried to order a gun and after a 2 day runaround was told they couldn't ship to Canada.

There's a place in Lynden Wash that will do all the paperwork for exporting guns, IIRC they're called Dave's sporting goods. They even had/have an account here. Look them up on the net.

bass pro Canada prices are way higher than us. I tried to order some cammo clothing off of them last year, they quoted 50% over the us price.

Also try prophet river firearms. Great reputation and charge less than $200 for importing guns

That's great news! I just checked last week and they were under historic section and now after the shot show listed as new. Yahoo ! Great news indeed. It should be easy to get here than.

Wholesale sports has this gun available starting last week - http://ca.wholesalesports.com/storefront/firearms/over-under-shotguns/cynergy-realtree-max-4/prod25894.html
There aren't any guns in Lower mainland, but they have couple in Regina and Calgary. I ordered one, should be here in 2-3 weeks. One of friend let me shot his Cynergy this weekend. I shot the round of trap and then tried different loads. With 3.5" BBB it kicks like a mule. If I would shot couple boxes of these shells, pretty sure would have a sore shoulder next day. Still love the gun, it will be perfect for the hunting we are doing.

That's who I'd call too. They charged me $250 for importing. Melissa is who you talk to for importing. Takes a little while but a safe way to go. They usually buy them from all over till they fill a pallet of guns, then they ship the works. Saves them $ for shipping, but you have to wait for them to fill the pallet.

Questar will import for $500, so it's not worth it.
The new guys you mentioned ?? I haven't heard any bad stories about them and haven't used them, they might be fine.
