Canada & TC/Pro-Hunter
Hey all,
I ordered a new TC Pro-Hunter model 4297/20 Ga. Rifled Slug Gun. That was in January. I'm still waiting and not very patiently anymore..... Can anyone tell me why it takes so daing long to get a slug gun from New-Hampshire to Ontario Canada??? I'm thinking that after six months I'm entitled to bitch.

I dunno but it's probably got to do with Customs.
A friend of mine tried to send downa box full ofCaribou horn for me to make knife handles with and it got rejected at the border three times due to bureaucracy with the Border...we gave up.

I got in touch with the dealer and he says the Canadian Import permit happened in less than a week. Now, apparently. We're waiting on the New Hampshire State Department to rubber stamp an Export Permit???? What a LOAD of Crap.....

RE: Canada & TC/Pro-Hunter
The longest part of the wait is due to tie-ups with U.S. Gov't Depts. I imported a firearm from Kentucky (shotgun) and although it was close to 5 months, the Import Permits to Canada were very fast and simple. Apparently the BATF hates to see firearms leave the States, and really drag their heels.

RE: Canada & TC/Pro-Hunter
My story....Ordered a PH in 20ga on Dec 15th '07 with intent on getting a 50cal Muzzle Loader in the near future and then a custome 257 Roberts barrel from Bullberry.
Got the frame/stock/forend in a week. I must admit I ordered the 20 ga with a ported barrel. Just got it last week (July 1st). That's 6 1/2 months for a ported 20 ga barrel.
It may be more than customs!!!
