Hello, everyone,

I have done a search for how to get a Canadian Export Permit. That is not the hard part!

The hard part is that I am taking a Sig Sauer Cross Magnum 300 win mag, with an Sig SIERRA6BDX scope, and a KILO2200BDX range finder.

These items are made in the USA and I know, for sure, that the rifle is ITAR controlled. How have my fellow Canadians navigated this hurdle so that I can temporarily export such items from Canada to Namibia and back? Any help is appreciated.

Thank you!
 
You are doing a temporary export for hunting reasons not a export for sale. So should just be the normal paperwork within your home country to take your fire arms on a hunt and bring them home.

one of the Canadian AH members should chime in soon with more specific information.
 
I want to thank everyone on this form. I got my answer. ITAR does not apply when the rifle has already been exported from the United States and is not a military item. I will attach a photograph of where I got hung up. This is the page just before you hit submit. We picked the last option for each question. I just got my permit.

I got the permit online. As I said in an earlier post, I got confused because I read too much into the questions asked before I get to hit submit on the online portal. I’ve attached a picture above. I got confused about ITAR unnecessarily. I did it to myself.
 
Glad you got it resolved! Happy hunting!

A two minute video I made of our recent Safari. I think it turned out well

Jake, Sorry to bug you again. I was wondering if you could share a. couple actual pics of this crossbow with me?

Xpedition Archery USED Scrapeline390X Sniper Gray Crossbow XACW1001 - Light Wear - Needs Bolt/Arrow Guide Spring UA5689​

If it is in a decent shape, would you be willing to sell it for $100 shipped? IS it missing the retention spring that goes over the bolt?
Thank you Ferenc

Good morning John, I just read your setup procedure for the northstar duplicator ator. I found it very hand and I did learn some things. I have the same machine and I am having a problem i can not figure out and was hoping you could shed some light on the subject.
