    Was able to get to the post office today. Can confirm they pulled all boxes of the same design from the shipper (Tactical Imports) after one got ran through the scanner and it was determined to be a firearm. The head of security at the location informed me that all firearms must be shipped in a locked container with a physical lock. Zip ties do not constitute a lock as per his determination.

    He noted this is for all firearms shipped through Canada post. Small business or Large. Plastic/hardshelled non-transparent case with a padlock. He is sending a few back to Ontario as he cannot get a hold of the customers.

    Good luck all.

    This is from June-14,2021 on Canada Post’s website, someone threw the book at those shipments:

    When you ship firearms, you must:

    Unload the firearms. There can’t be any ammunition in the firearm or in the package (bullets, cartridges, and other ammunition are dangerous goods).
    Attach a secure locking device to the firearms.
    Lock the firearms in a sturdy, non-transparent container.
    Remove the bolt or bolt carrier from any automatic firearms (if removable).

    You can’t:
    Ship firearms via air
    Have any markings on the outside of the firearm packaging
    You’re solely responsible for meeting all government regulations.

    Did they at least email you, or was it Canada Post that called?

    Someone was being uppidy… probably just googled the shipper “oh, I don’t like those”. Was it a retail post office like shoppers? Because they don’t have any authority. I’ve been working relief for CP and I’ve handled tones of firearms and there has never been an issue. It’s easy to spot a firearm. You can spot a Cabela’s box across the the depot ffs.

    Hard to believe Canada Post is starting to pull shipments of firearms because they don't meet the guidelines. Retailers have been shipping firearms unlocked in cardboard boxes forever.
