Shipping parts to Canada
« on: January 13, 2010, 07:42:41 AM »
What are the rules and or issues with shipping barrels and other parts to Canada?

I am in Alberta and am just getting into H&R's and wondered if i can buy barrells and other parts off the site and have them shipped to me or does that make me a terrorist  ;)

Not a problem for non-dealers for parts other than a frame/receiver, dealers can't send parts without an export license, but us mortals can. Brownell's will send stocks, dunno about other parts. ;D

Yeah I was wondering about getting parts up to Alberta also, I bought some fiber-optic sights from Brownells and they got here OK it just took a while.

  I've had a barrel, stock and peep sight come from different guys here and haven't had any trouble.  Usually takes about 2 weeks to get things in my hands.

Adam R, check out Western Gun Parts in Edmonton.  I've gotten parts from them before.  Seem to have just about any thing you need.

Thanks Cliff,

I will be giving them a call forsure,  looks like they might be just the ticket for the do-it-yourself gun tinkerer up here north of the border.

I have ordered stuff from Brownell's and they sent it as machine parts? Just some springs and Hi Power parts. Western gun or Marstar are good places to get stuff from in Canada.
