    Firearms and Canada

    I am planning a trip to Vancouver Island Summer 2019. As I usually travel with firearms, I know they can't go into Canada with me. What I would like to do/find is a place or way to store my handguns in the US while we visit Canada for a month or so. Has anyone done this? Ideas?

    Thanks,

    Tom

    Yes, there are a few ways around this problem. Rent a lock box if you return the same way you entered, Ship to an address you will be heading too, Leave them home if you are on a round trip. Do not try to sneak them through, bad outcome to follow.

    I have heard that firearm retailers in US border towns are used to storing these for a reasonable fee. Of course, this only works if you are returning by the same route.

    Call around to the local FFL (federal firearm license) dealers near your country exit point. Usually, these dealers will store your firearm, sometimes free or sometimes for a very nominal fee, until you return to the Grand 'ole USA.

    A pawn shop will also store your firearms while out of the country, for a small fee.
