Application / Regulation advice Is anyone shipping in hard cases?

As title, as per Canada Post regs they want a trigger lock AND locked in a secure container. This would add $60 minimum to shipping cost ( 2 locks and a cheap case). How are people shipping their online-sold firearms?

Sounds like many are mailing not in accordance with current Canada Post regulations.

The information to mail a gun without any issues is on the Canada Post Website. Its really quite simple.

There is no need tovdeclarevtge package contents, just that it is not dangerous goods.

Stores have different rules, hence no trigger locks.
