Taking an air rifle to Canada from US

[Josh7388]

Looking for some info on taking my notos to Canada from the USA.

I searched and the requirements aren't clear, I know i would have to declare it and fill out a form due to the foot pounds of energy and fps it shoots, but what about barrel length?

I've read rifles need to have a barrel length of 18", does this apply to air rifles as well? Any other advice welcome.

Pic for attention

Why? Are you moving there?

Sorry this may be an issue for some if I post a thread from another forum, but I just wanna help with reading the Canadian laws:

- no problem bringing in guns and airguns, but only the Brand/Model is listed in FRT (Firearms Reference Table);
- if the Canadian verson was declared as a pistol on the box ... no matter you put a looong stock on it - it stays as a pistol, and over 500 fps it is a restricted firearm and need a RPAL license to have it.
- no moderators or silencers or anything that can change the colour of a sound, or suppress the sound is a prohibited device in Canada;
- looking at the Notos specs right now, the barrel is 11.5" and the overl length is 34".

So, pretty much - don't do it, won't go through.

Pretty sure Canada considers that a handgun. That's why we can't get them here.

For that price range, it may be easier to buy a gun from a Canadian dealer and have it shipped to wherever you're going.

I would just buy one there not worth taking a chance and getting locked up.
