Also against the USA laws. Need an export permit according to the USA Customs.

For a scope?

I believe so. Those Americans are sticky on letting anything gun based leave the country.

ITAR restrictions on rifle scopes are only for those that have a military application. As a general guideline, if the scope has a Mil Dot reticle it is likley restricted. Hunting scopes do not fall into this category.

Here is a link to the Munitions List.

I tried to order a hunting scope (nikon prostaff) from Bass Pro in september and they wouldn't ship it to me?? So I called them and they said it because it's considerd a "firearm of some sort"??
So I had to buy it here 40$ more :(

I've had the same thing happen repeatedly with a non-military, 2x hunting red dot and a turkey choke.

Apparently, anything that attaches to a firearm is fair game to be stopped at the border.

I crossed with two and declared them, paid the tax and on my way. My buddy did the same, both mil dots.

Our guys (CBSA) don't care....it's the State Trooper on the other side if you get stopped....he won't be so accommodating :)

I've heard from a reliable source that the plans for the Ottawa store were cancelled. I'm going to ask again to make sure he was not pulling my leg, but I don't think he was.

Their website still indicates a 2015 opening. First they cancelled Mirabel and now possibly Kanata?
