Traveling with Handgun to Canada

"Do you have any firearms in the vehicle?"
"No, I left them all at home."
"Please pull into that parking spot and wait for the officer."
After two hours of interrogation, removal of nearly everything from the truck, digging through the dirty laundry and finding nothing ...
"You're free to go."
"Who's cleaning up the mess that you made?"

You drive through a big ass x-ray driving up to the border station.

When they run your plate, they already know who you are, and they've already likely decided if they're going to search your car. Your body language, attitude, and answers, are going to be the deciding factor on their search.

I only had border agents enter my trailer twice. Once was the Canadian border agent as I was leaving Hyder alaska who wanted to physically see my declared firearm, and then when I entered the lower 48, the border agent asked me to open the camper, he went in, went and opened the fridge, presumably checked to see if I had picked up any citrus, closed the fridge, and started to walk out. Said I was good to go and enjoy the rest of my trip.

I was all paranoid and worried they were going to try to touch my butthole. Got myself all worked up in a tizzy reading stories about a-hole border agents being dickbags. Didn't have any problems. I assume it's because i'm not someone they need to worry about because of a good record, and having all my paperwork in order.

Traveling with Handgun to Canada

Can any of my Canukistan brothers explain which handguns I can bring to Canada? Doing some back country/travelling so will be carrying (Mostly in US, but hitting Banff as well). I understand I have to declare at border but the confusion is between what is prohibited vs restricted. The legaleze is not plain and I naturally don't want to cause an international incident.

Due to the handgun freeze in Canadistan, you're not going to be able temporarily import the handgun, but you can apply for a Authorization to transport, but you have to do that ahead of time. REgardless, you won't be able to carry the firearm on your person during hiking, or any activities. It is permissible to have a firearm in your RV, trailer, or auto, as a self defense item against animals. If you tell them it's for self defense against humans, they will turn you around.

In 2019 I declared a Marlin 1895 levergun at the border. I had my CBP 4457 completed and stamped prior to leaving on the trip (always fun carrying a firearm into a government office to get that paperwork done). I declared the firearm at the border, gave them the paperwork I had already filled out, they did their thing, told me to park and come in to pay the $25 CAD, and it was super, easy. They didn't even ask to see it, in fact I did 5 border crossings before a Canadian Border agent leaving Hyder finally asked to see it.

Granted my experience is 6 years old now, so I don't know exactly what's changed. I know as far as firearms, if it's a manually operated firearm, you'll be ok. They don't like pistols, and most things semi auto.

If you're gonna visit Banff, carry bear spray. Test it ahead of time so you know what it feels like, and to make sure you don't have a can that's finicky, or too hard to operate. Bear spray has a 96% effectiveness rate against bears at stopping a charge, firearms only have a 76% effectiveness. You'll have no problem transporting bear spray, carrying it, or using it, but god forbid you have one of those little personal mace bottles, or a stun gun, you can't have those. The other plus side of bear spray, you don't have to explain to the authorities that you sprayed a bear. If you shoot one though, better be a clear cut good shoot.

Maggie’s THE "NOM NOM NOM" THREAD

Snuby642
I was stationed in England for a while.
I had an English girlfriend I was staying with. I had gone to the BX and got some grub for the weekend.

I was working on my little miny woody station wagon and she asked what I wanted for lunch.
I told her a BLT, and that there was some cheese and onions in there. She was clueless I told her bacon lettuce and tomato sandwich and she walked off.

I finished my task washed up and came to the table and found 3 sandwiches, a bacon, a tomato and a lettuce with cheese.

I sat her down to watch, and toasted some bread then assembled two sandwiches .

It blew her mind. I could have passed for a chef.

So ya a tomato sandwich is a thing in some places, not my place.

Accuracy International Picture Thread

So, a great ending to a 4-year search.

A few days ago, I posted that I purchased a new LH 308 AXMC bolt body from EO. I was going to send it to Fritz for conversion to a 300WM boltface. What I didn't tell you all is that a few hours earlier, @Tack425 PM'd me that he was expecting a shipment of TWO brand new LH AXMC 300WM bolt bodies. He and I have been talking about trying to find one for three years now. I still ordered the LH 308 body as insurance since there was only one in stock. I didn't think that getting two was possible, but two days later, he sent me a photo via PM showing that he had TWO of them. He offered to sell one to me at his cost. Needless to say, I jumped on that.

Today, USPS arrived, and lo and behold, I have the holy grail.

I also have a spare LH AXMC bolt body in 308...LOL. I will keep it and sell my original to someone who is looking.

This couldn't have turned out better. The smile on my face is ear-to-ear. Goes to show what a great community we have here on the Hide.

Many thanks to @Tack425 for being an outstanding person!

Sell NOTHING until you check EVERYTHING out. Make SURE your firing pin assembly fits in both bolt bodies. Make SURE that they feed and extract the cases properly, etc. Don't assume ANYTHING. Speaking from experience. I bought a new 338 small firing pin bolt body from EO that was incompletely machined, and the firing pin assembly from my 308 complete bolt assembly would NOT rotate upon insertion no matter what. It was not EO's fault, it was AI's. Fortunately, it was easily returned and replaced with another bolt body, but it was right-hand, and not rare like a lefty would be, so it was immediately available. Don't give up your 308 until you KNOW the 300WM bolt body is 100% GTG.

That was all AXMC... I bought a new AXSR in 300PRC with a factory mag and have had NO problems with feeding from the mag like many others have described. I don't know why I didn't have the same problem they did, because the mag is marked for 300WM. Given the choice, I'd pick 300PRC over 300WM every time because of the extra performance, and not having to deal with a belted cartridge when resizing. But there are a lot of people who have had issues with mag-feeding a PRC from a WM mag, so I understand their frustration even though I didn't experience it.
