It isn’t as hard as you may have thought to bring your guns into Canada. Here’s what you need to know: http://www.losttarget.com/firearmcanada.html. It is a REALLY easy process: a word of advice after filling out the required form: remember DO NOT SIGN IT until you are at the border and with a Canadian border agent.
For the most current information, here is your government’s website: http://travel.state.gov/.
The cost right now to bring your firearms into Canada is a flat fee of only $25.00CAD, and is good for 60 days.
Each of your governments are unique so please check with them, as well as your airlines, to determine the current protocol and the paperwork you require to transport a firearm with you to Canada.
The Canadian rules and regulations for bringing a firearm into Canada are quite simple and can be found at: http://www.cfc-cafc.gc.ca/.
Please contact the OPTA if you require some guidance: but remember it is YOUR responsibility to follow all procedures and laws. Our contact information: here.
