With planning our trip to Alaska this summer we contacted Canadian Border Services Agency to get the "proper" scoop. Besides asking the agent about food, pets, etc. I asked him about weapons. He of course stated about handguns which we knew about. Regarding long guns (both rifles and shotguns) he said there is no issue just go to the same website the Oldguard just posted, go to the section for non-resident fire arms transportation and print out in triplicate the forms for declaration, fill them out and do sign until you declare at the border to the agent there and pay your $25. The permit is good for 60 days. The agent was very polite and accommodating. We will need to do the same on return from Alaska.

As for any other restricted firearms you can ship them ahead to Alaska and pick them up there. We are using Three Bears Outpost in Tok, AK which also has an outpost in Montana. The process is quite simple and legal.

Here's the bottomline, if you want to do the right thing, it is easy and all you have to do is be respectful. Regardless of whether you are a US or Canadian citizen, know each others countries rules and laws and follow them accordingly. Some laws are more cumbersome than others and they may not make us happy but they are laws.
