The import of muzzle-loading firearms to Canada shows a declining trend from 2024 onwards, with forecasted values decreasing yearly from 3.87 to 3.03 thousand by 2028. In comparison to previous years, the year-on-year variation shows a consistent decline, indicating a shrinking demand or shift in policies affecting these imports.
