Friend had to ship his shotgun home even with all of the proper paperwork because he did not declare transitioning to Alaska...which he wasn't but if he had he could've brought it in.
Have the laws changed since 2013? I've taken a declared, permitted shotgun into Canada 3 times, once going to Alaska, twice staying in Canada. Never for hunting or competition -- ALWAYS for protection from wildlife ONLY. (never used it - but I did have it ready once)
He entered near Glacier July 2014 and had all of the proper permits in advance. When asked if he was going to AK he said NO. It went downhill from there even having to provide a shipping invoice for the shotgun before allowed into Canada the next day...took that long to get it shipped.
