Canada Bear
I'm doing a bear hunt in Canada.
Is it worth bringing a hand gun into Canada ? I see there is paperwork available, but not sure a hand gun is needed. Would certainly make me feel better !! |

If you are taking a spring bear hunt in Canada, make sure you take twice as much bug dope as you think you will need. The black flies and skeeters will eat you alive.

Don't believe handguns are allowed for non residents.

Why do you think you would need a handgun? Have you ever shot a bear? They aren't that hard to kill. Do you think you could hit a bear with a pistol if you blew the shot with a rifle? Not sure I understand the mindset of dragging a handgun across the international border. What does your outfitter have to say about it? If you're an American and I'm assuming you are then by law you have to hire a guide in Canada. I'd be sure to get the outfitter's take before I did any paperwork.
But, to each his own. |
Good luck on your spring bear hunt... Yeah, I do not understand why you would want to carry a side arm either. I just think it will draw attention from customs and the like resulting in red flags where they may have law enforcement watch you close as well as perhaps a harder time going threw customs on both sides going over and back.. But clearly the choice is yours..

if you going to try to take a hand gun into Canada pack a lot of extra cloths because you are going to be there a lot longer then you planned on

Did anyone actually read the non-resident firearms declaration .pdf ??

So the questions remain: Why do you want to take the chance taking a pistol in and what does your outfitter have to say about it. If your outfitter is good with it then he/she will have all the paperwork ready to go and you wouldn't have to be on a forum like this asking questions. |
