American Gun lover moving to Canada Please help!

So now i guess they are treating me as a visitor to Canada for a term of 3 years. and are telling me that the moving me will ship all of my long guns for me with "no restrictions" only my 2 hand guns are considered "non admissible"

I have to meet the shipper at the Hamilton airport at the customs office to "approve the shipment" what happens if customs does not approve the shipment?? i just don't want to all ready be in Canada and then risk Canadian gov't confiscating something.

I will have to get my RPAL for the hand guns, and was told i have to prove to the mounted police that i NEED them. not sure how that will go since all I will be able to prove is target fun because i do not live was up north in the bush. any ideas? anyhow im shipping these to my dad in NY for the meantime until i can figure this out.


:confused:

That up north in the bush thing is a non starter...you can only shoot handguns at approved ranges after carrying it there with an ATT form...no exceptions for anyone.
 
Any one know how I can sign up for the Pal and Rpal safety training?

You don't need take a course, you merely need to pass (challenge) the tests. That said...
Most ranges have their own in-house courses.
You'll also need a course approved by the range you intend to join.
In my case, the range course gives you enough knowledge to challenge the RPAL test, so you'll only need the one course.
Pick up a copy of the book for the PAL test, this will give you more than enough info to pass the test.
Browse through the Newbie forum as well.
Good luck!!
