Importing the gun into Canada is very very simple . It might cost you a few extra hundred bucks to pay shipping to Questar's FFL in the states and then up here , and doing the paperwork is is simple enough . If you can fill out a form with your name , address , make and model # , amount paid your good to go . if you cant do that , then yes it is a hassle . In fact Questar will do the paperwork for you , i can't emphasize enough how simple it is to import a firearm from the states legally . I did it with my Les Baer 1911 , but now that Questar ( top of forum ) is doing it all the time , it is even less trouble . The hardest part is waiting for the paperwork to be done ( time consuming dealing with Ottawa and Washington ) . You can buy a gun anywhere new or used in the states , just pay them and then get them to ship it to Mark's ( Questar ) US FFL , ( the company is just doing a transfer between 2 US FFL ). It will sit there while the proper paperwork is being done . The company ( in this case FULTON ) is not shipping it to Canada , just another US dealer that has exporting capabilities !!!!!!!
