taking shotguns to canada
 
Hi all, I have researched this quite alot, and i think I know what to do, however was wondering if anyone has experienced taking their shotguns when landing, and what it was like?

My hubby and I have a 12 bore shotgun each. Hubby also has a de activated Lee enfield. Also if anyone knows of any clay pigeon schools around Nova scotia, as we could only see rifle ranges. Thank you. :cool:

I believe you need to contact the airline first.
You will be given a declaration form before landing in Canada on which you must declare items you are taking in with you. If you haven't already seen one here's a link:

I was taken to the Annapolis Valley Gun Club by a Nova Scotian friend a couple of years ago. Great facility, I think they do skeet there.

If you are coming here to live, bear in mind, Canada has a gun registry.
