OZZ:
Got an idea here. Don't know if it would work or not. Go to state of Washington with hand gun in tow. Get on a ferry on the state side and take it to Alaska. You would have to come back the same way. Don't know if it's possible, but it is a thought. I have also heard by rumor that in some states near the border that they have lock boxes that you can rent for storage. Just a couple of more ideas. One more thing. Google a bill that is now been broght up in congress..... H.R.-822. All of the states are not even covered with CW permits. This would help if it ever passes and it is tied to a bill that Obama has to sign to keep the country running.....JB

Jack,
Thanks I will look that up. From what I have learned here, I would not carry in to Canada even if I could. If there is no provision to defend yourself with a handgun, what would we gain...
I would like to have one if I were to go to Alaska some day, from watching 'Alaska State Troopers' on TV, it seems there are more weapons there than down here in the lower 48. I think I would just buy a Mossberg if I went up there.
It seems Bear spray would be nice to have, so that would be on the list. (I have a fire extinguisher

Don't think you need a permit in Alaska to carry for anything. Just what I have read....JB

Just FYI, Wasp and Hornet spray is reported to be WAY more effective on people than pepper spray and the stream is about 25'. I don't think you would have trouble taking that into Canada.

We just went to AK this past summer and our friends traveling with us went with their 5th wheel and took a shot gun through Canada with no problem.
You just have to register it when you enter Canada.
You pay $60 to register it and it is good for 60 days. If you stay past 60 days you just re register it and another $60. They stayed more than 60 days.
The above info is for shot guns only. I can't give you facts for long rifles or hand guns.

Again; rifles are okay for both hunting and carrying in Canada; with a permit. Hand guns are an absolute No!! We have many U.S. citizens that come into Canada to Big Game Hunt year after year and pack their rifles in and out with no problem ( they must be registered).

"Health Shuler (D-NC), offered HR 822, the National Right-To-Carry Reciprocity Act. Noted Stearns, “It is important to note this bill would not create a federal licensing system. It would merely require states to recognize each other's carry permits'
it is only a house bill and a long way from any action..if ever.

I thought most (all?) states did honor the home state.
I also understood that you were 'good' if you are carrying when passing through a state.

Ozz,
If you haven't already read the gun thread on the Escapee's Forum I would recommend it. It is very long but contains a lot of gun related info.
Good luck, Dennis

Great site! Thanks. I have my permit in Missouri, so I am in good shape except California and Washington..maybe it was Oregon in the areas where I plan on going.
I didn't see that Dennis, I will find it and read up on it.
Thanks.

Better idea ... don't go to Canada if you need/want to carry a handgun. I carry and have scratched Canada off my list. LOTS to see here in the states. Besides, I don't want to be anywhere that only criminals and cops carry. Silly Canadian government ... they think if people can't carry handguns, everyone will be safe.

I think Canada is beautiful, and like the peeps up there, but I actually was planning on Alaska, but I think I have to go through Canada to get there.

I find this very interesting...Untill a few years ago Police Officers could have been arrested for going into another state with a sidearm (on or off duty). Under Pres. Bush a House Bill was passed that allowed all active police officers and retired officers that met
certain critera allowing them to carry in all the states.
It took a few years for this bill to pass and I can guess it will
take a lot longer for H.R. 822 to get through the anti gun law makers.

I agree that Canada is beautiful (I've been there several times) and by far and large the citizens are wonderful people. I just think that on this particular issue the Canadian government is just wrong. Having said that, it's their country and they can make whatever rules they please. If someone wishes to visit their country, they need to play by their rules. If someone doesn't agree with them or finds their laws to be incompatible with their values, they are free to go elsewhere, .... and will.

The above is so true no matter what country we travel throughout the world. There are pros and cons within any country when we are travelling, but must abide under their particular rule while travelling within.
