Needing information on how to transport firearms to SASS Canadian matches.

Hello Everyone,

Need help on what are requirements needed to attend SASS Canadian matches this year?  Thanks a bunch!

Talk to a MD of one of the matches in Canada. 

They will provide you with some documentation you will need for the permits.

Each 'state' in Canada has different requirements.

Thank you.

The Canada Border Services Agency web site has all the official information needed.   By all means contact the folks listed above and they will confirm the info on that website.

 

BTW, we used to shoot at some of the same matches in NJ and PA back in the "old days".  I seem to remember a shoot off with (I can't remember for sure- Badlands Bud?) another top shooter where a number of shotgun rounds were required; he ran out of shells and you had plenty on your belt.  You moved down south as I recall.  Nice to see you're still shooting.

Long guns are easy, handguns not so much without lots of advance planning.

Which matches are you thinking of attending? 

[islandgirl]

Thank you so much for more info that y'all suggested.  I am interested in shooting the SASS Regional and National Championship matches this summer along with my friend Kanada Girl.  She has given me some information also.  Was checking to see if there are any US shooters will be heading over there also.     

Thank you Lumpy, Tex Jones, Sedalia and Crisco for reply.  I appreciate yall took the time.  Looking forward to see y'all at the range!

Sorry, just noticed this.

The Canadian Firearms Centre's telephone number is 1-800-731-4000 and follow the prompts.

I suggest you have the all the details, make, model, serial numbers etc. etc. of any and all firearms you intend to bring. 

Things changed here with the Order In Council and subsequent freeze of the legal transfer of handguns, by registered and licensed owners.

The 2024 SASS Canadian National Championship is being hosted by the Saskatchewan Association of Wild West Shooters in Saskatoon Saskatchewan, August 1 thru 4. You will need to get a letter of invitation for the event to qualify for the permit. 

You can contact myself or one of the other club executive for a letter of invitation.

IslandGirl, Dusty is a great guy to work with. I have sent him invitations for the past 2 years to get him into the US to shoot at our matches here in Texas. He usually stays 3 o4 months and shoots with us. Better take care of her Dusty. LOL  Texas Maverick from Green Mountain Regulators.
