An interesting bit of news for Canadian law enforcement and military personnel:
"Rampart is extremely honored and excited to be chosen as the newest Canadian GLOCK MIL/LE distributor. GLOCK’s pursuit of perfection and reputation for the world’s finest, most reliable pistols integrates well with Rampart’s vision. We offer the world’s best products matched with unparalleled customer service and a deep routed purpose to serve the end user.
GLOCK products are a welcome addition to our Military/Law Enforcement product offering; we are looking forward to servicing existing Canadian GLOCK customers and working to expand the customer base. As well as GLOCK pistols, Rampart will also inventory GLOCK original parts and provide full in house warranty service. The Rampart-GLOCK IOP program will allow eligible professional customers to purchase GLOCK products and thousands of other Rampart products at a discounted price."
This deal does not preclude existing distribution relationships with their other LE/MIL distributor, Okotoks-based Korth Group, nor Vancouver's European Arms; responsible for civilian and commercial sales. Rather, the addition of Rampart International as a LE/MIL distributor is intended to provide greater service to the ever-growing fleet of military- and law enforcement-issued pistols in Canada, which is forecast to include an estimated 10,000 new pistols entering Canadian service this year alone. No doubt the armourers for both law enforcement and the military are glad to have a second distributor available, although if the Austrian polymer wondergun is as reliable as they're supposed to be they may not find a need.
