Bottom line, if the barrels were made after 1898 you need a form 6.
You can import small parts with a wholesale value of less than $100 without a form 6. But all barrels, breaching mechanisms, and receivers require a form 6 regardless of dollar value.
If a US citizen follows the advice of gunsaholic re carrying a gun over the border and then selling the gun in Canada..... they are in violation of the US Arms export control act and can find them selves in a world of hurt facing years in jail and huge fines. This is a no BS law, the Feds can turn your life upside down and inside out.
How is one violating the US Arms export act? I am talking a private American citizen that has a pal for Canada. An American citizen is legal to transport a gun within the US and come to Canada hunting or for sporting events without an export permit. Once the person is in Canada it becomes Canadian law. And the Canadian firearms act states an American with a pal can sell or give a gun that is registered in Canada to a Canadian while in Canada. It says taxes or custom duties may apply. I'm not telling anyone to do this. I am saying it bears looking into if someone is trying to buy a gun from an individual. I could see an individual breaking the law if the US required an American citizen to have an export permit to say transport a gun from North Dakota into Canada. But if no export permit is required for an individual to enter Canada with a gun, how is the law broken if once in Canada that individual can sell or give away the gun if it's registered in Canada and the American has a pal? As I said, it may be something that should possibly be looked into. If it can't be done then one would find that out when they check into it.
