Re: Questions on purchasing campers from dealers.
We used SCATT Recreation in Roseville, Ca. We also live in San Diego and what a pain to camper shop. We settled with an Eagle Cap and worked with the factory and Jason, the owner at SCATT. The banks did not want to give us a loan until there was a serial number and we were ordering the camper to our spec's. Jason set us up with a bank that would give us the loan before it had a serial number. We had the camper shipped to Roseville from Washington to save time. It cost about the same, gas vs shipping.242Views0likes0CommentsRe: Crossing Into Canada with a Firearm
This is my personal experience with declaring a handgun at the border crossing into Canada. We were on a Western States tour for the summer and boon docking, thats why the .45. We wanted to go into Canada for the night to see Waterton National Park, we spoke with Park Rangers in Glacier NP and they told us how to do it. Now our story is different than yours because we were only there for 24 hours. We rolled up to Canadian Border Check point, an officer approached the window and asked citizenship, early in the conversation I declared that I had a handgun in the back of the camper and that I wanted to "check" it. Very politely he asked me to drive over to a marked parking stall and stay in the vehicle until another officer arrived. Second officer came over and asked me to open the back of the camper and step back, asked where the gun was and then he went in to retrieve it. We then followed him into the main building where he checked our gun into their holding area, gave us a receipt and told us we had 30 days to come back for the gun or it would be destroyed. We returned the next day and retrieved our gun. Through the entire process the Canadian Border Guards were extremely nice, professional, and mellow. not onetime were we asked why?. They had done this before and it seemed routine. Let me know if you have any other questions.402Views0likes0Comments
