bigmoss Posted January 12, 2006 Report Share Posted January 12, 2006 Just wanted to share this info with both Canadian and US members here now that I have confirmed it. TC Encore Barrels and 110% legal to trade or sell back and forth. Being it is only the barrell with no stock and trigger they are not considred a firearm but only an accessory. I am Canadian and was just down in the US where I bought 2 Encore rifle barrels no problem at all, no ID required or US citizenship required. I flew them home and declared them no problem either. I have just seen allot of Encore barrels for sale lately by US members saying US sales only, just wanted to point out if it is JUST the barrell or forend for sale you can sell it in either country.

Shaun_300 Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 Re: Encore Barrels from US to Canada Yeah I guess they can't really restrict tranferring a barrel over. Technically speaking it's just a piece of steel if its not attatched to the gun, isn't it? I was recently in the states and saw a used Browning 2000 20ga that was in mint condition for $349 at Gander Mountain! I wanted that gun SO bad, but with all the mess and hassle at the border coming back into Canada that I'd have to go through, I decided to pass it up. Geez, I think they are waaaayyyy too strict about that kind of stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] Actually Sean being that was a full firarm you would not have been even able to buy it as they will only sell full firearms in the US toUS residents. Being that the Encore is just a barrell there is no problem at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
