Does anyone know the rules and regulations for bringing guns across canada to alaska???

Question

This is driving across the country.

Answer 1

There are a few reasons you can bring a gun into Canada. If you are going hunting, or transportation through are a couple of acceptable reasons.

The important thing is to declare it at the border and then you will have to fill out the proper paperwork and pay the fee.

The first link is the basic as listed here. The second link brings you to the actual forms as pdf and full instructions on rules and how to fill in the forms. In the non-residence section, look at the declaration forms.

46. Non-residents may import non-restricted firearms only for:

(a) sporting or hunting during hunting season;
(b) use in competitions;
(c) repair;
(d) enactments;
(e) in transit movement, i.e., moving in the most direct route possible from Point A to Point B, through Canada; or
(f) protection against wildlife in remote areas.

Answer 2

Here is what the official site says:
Firearms and weapons

Canada’s firearms legislation helps make the country safer for both residents and visitors. Before you attempt to import a firearm or weapon, contact the Canada Firearms Centre for information.

The following requirements apply to the importation of firearms and weapons:

you must be at least 18 years of age;
you can import non-restricted and restricted firearms, provided you meet all requirements; and
you cannot import prohibited firearms, weapons or devices, including silencers, replica firearms, switchblades and other weapons.
You must declare all weapons and firearms at the CBSA port of entry or they will be seized and you may be subject to arrest.

As a visitor, you may temporarily import restricted firearms and non-restricted firearms, such as pistols or revolvers, provided you get Form CAFC 679, Application for an Authorization to Transport Restricted Firearms and Prohibited Firearms in advance from a chief firearms officer of the province or territory to which you are importing a restricted firearm.

As a seasonal resident, you may import restricted firearms but you must have a valid Possession and Acquisition Licence or a valid Firearms Acquisition Certificate, in addition to Form CAFC 679. For more information on importing a firearm into Canada, ask for a copy of the publication called Importing a Firearm or Weapon Into Canada or call the BIS line at one of the numbers listed in the section called "Additional information."

For more information about applying for a Canadian firearms licence or Form CAFC 679, contact:

Replica firearms are designed or intended to resemble a firearm with near precision. They are classified as prohibited devices and you cannot import them into Canada.

Answer 3

If you are a US citizen - and the means of transportation is driving - you can transport them from one state to another (crossing a portion of Canada while you do so), as long as you meet one of the criteria for transporting them outlined in the answer given by Juan B already.

However, you MUST have a valid firearms permit (i.e. the permit to buy a gun) AND a valid transportation permit (for the gun you are transporting). Handguns are NOT allowed, only "long barrels". Triggers must be locked. Weapon must be locked in a case. Ammunition must also be locked - and kept separate from the weapon. Neither weapon nor ammunition can be inside the passenger compartment of the vehicle, and the keys to unlock either cannot be in someone's pocket - they must also be separated (like in the glove box).

If you're going by air, you'll need to package the weapons and ammunition separately and ship them by some other means.

Answer 4

With the right workplace paintings you ought to probable deliver the remington m70 and 12 gauge(by using mailing them by using customs) although the ar-15 is out of the question, your searching at like 2-years in reformatory for having an attack weapon, and BC would probable nail you for like 5 years because they have some rather nasty sentencing for hand guns and attack weapon possession. Im no longer constructive of the legality of bringing your guns in to be honest, yet as a canadian i can own both the remington kind seven-hundred and a 12 gauge shotgun no concern. I actually have a feeling in case you opt to pass searching no longer actually will you ought to get a allow you ought to lease a weapon as well(yet than back large activity hunters can commonly deliver their very own guns to seek activity in maximum places). p.s. The mounties will be throughout you for walking round with different firearms strapped round your shoulder, inspite of if there is not any regulation adverse to it each human being who drove by using would more desirable than likely supply up and question you. on the brighter aspect of issues rather a lot each human being i understand in jap canada(the position i stay, nova scotia to be right) owns atleast one gun, and in case you meet someone pleasant adequate they'd probable make it easier to borrow a gun, use their camp or maybe take you to a reliable spot to seek some small activity. For one i hunt rabbit, coyote and rather a lot some thing else that strikes all 365 days round(minus large activity, using the indisputable fact that fairly is poaching). coyotes are thick in nova scotia, and that i propose like roaming packs everywhere. in truth a woman became killed by using them this 365 days in cape breton so that you wouldnt listen any courtroom situations about shooting them for activity. those aren't to any extent further your hardship-free fox sized small coyotes, nova scotian coyotes are like 50/50 coyote-timber wolf and commonly weigh 35-50 pounds. We snared some large ones very last iciness and were given a reliable sized bob cat too.

Answer 5

Could you clarify? Is this by car? By plane?

U.S. citizens may find it helpful to register firearms with U.S. Customs before traveling through Canada in order to prove ownership. For more information on carrying firearms in Canada contact 1-800-731-4000 (Ext. 9026), or visit www.cfc-cafc.gc.ca.
