Application / Regulation advice GunPost virgin!

Post image

Disposing of a rifle through gunpost for the first time. I want to do it properly and the Canada post website states it needs to be in a sturdy lockable container...

Any tips where to acquire such an item without eating into my margin too much?

Cardboard box with nothing indicating it is a firearm. If they ask what is in the box (which they have done to me many times), I say sports equipment.

One issue I ran into for the first time recently was the package was too long to ship. The employee told me the way to ship it is to create the packing slip online and then it can be shipped.

I second getting a business account, it takes 5 minutes and you get a small discount and can request a signature to pick up the firearm.
