[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 2832439, member: 313"] The last time I checked the regs had a minimum rifle bbl length for a "modified" rifle to be 18". If a rifle was in its original configuration, the barrel could be shorter. Presumably a 16" barreled Marlin Trapper would be legal. Bringing a handgun into Canada will most assuredly get you arrested. True story: A group of bear hunters shared a camp with my group in the northern most tip of Maine one year. One of the guys from the other group never made it to the camp. He took some shortcut that took him briefly in and out of Canada. He was bowhunting but brought a handgun for backup. He was arrested on the spot and held by Canadian authorities. The poor guy sat in jail until his parents got to Canada and made arrangements for him to be bailed out. The gun was forfeited and authorities said he would likely be banned from entering Canada for life. He still had to clear the criminal charges against him. It was an innocent mistake, but one that cost him dearly. [/QUOTE]
