Muff Posted September 5, 2010 Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 Not sure on that one Tim....never flew out of there to go hunting....are you crossing at Buffalo to get there or at the east end of the lake? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strut10 Posted September 5, 2010 Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 I think there's a chance with any airline that your gun case will be mis-handled. Some folks just don't like guns. As for the Canadian gov't,............me and a buddy each took 12 ga. pump guns on our fishing trip this past June. We had the paperwork filled out ahead of time. All the customs agent was interested in was getting our $25. He never checked the guns nor did any of the border officers. Far as they know, we didn't even have guns. U.S. customs didn't check them on the way back in, either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun_300 Posted September 5, 2010 Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 Not too sure if it's much different than any other big airport for firearms. Could have a problem anywhere I guess. When I flew to Saskatchewan I had a transfer in Toronto. Never had to go through security though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkeygirl Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 My mom flew out of Toronto to England and back in to there..She didn't have any problems but then she wasn't carrying any guns or anything. Hopefully all goes well for ya Tim! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adjam5 Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 Hope the travel plans went smooth Tim. Firearms transportation always gets the 3rd degree of scrutiny, especially when leaving OR entering the USA. Just make sure you "HAVE YUR PAAA-PERS!"

doubleA Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 Been through various Canandian airports a dozen times. I have had been detained, paper work checked thouroughly and firearms inspected and times where I was just let through customs with them. Like anyone else I suppose it just depends on what they are told to do on that day or how they woke up that morning. I can say this, the US customs seem to hassle americans coming back into the US more than the other way around.:bang: Dont sweat the little stuff and the things you have no control over. Enjoy your time there, Canada has some of the best places to visit on earth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun_300 Posted September 7, 2010 Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 I can say this, the US customs seem to hassle americans coming back into the US more than the other way around Seems like Canada Customs are the same way. Never travelled by air into the US. But driving, US customs are usually a pleasure to speak to, friendly and only ask what should be asked. Coming back home into Canada I've had my car tore apart and treated like a criminal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
