Back in 1977 I crossed into Canada from Alaska with my Mom and Dad in a pickup truck with a camper shell on it. We had a 7.62 Mauser pistol, 30-06, and an M1 Carbine.
We didn't have to a Passport back in those days either.
I bet I would just now be getting out of prison if we had been checked. Mom and Dad passed away a long time ago.
And the guns didn't kill anyone as we crossed Canada and Mom and Dad slept peaceful in their tent each night while I slept in the camper shell.
NOt sure about pistols back then, but even in 1990 when I moved down to WA from AK US Customs just wanted to measure the barrel of my shotgun to make sure it was long enough, didn't care about the other firearms I had. Canadian customs didn't look at all. Just asked if I had firearms, I told them and they waved us through. Things have changed.
