My maxus duratouch still looks like the day I've bought it, hunted it 4-5 years now.

I have no doubt Browning will correct the issue I have, I’m more curious or unsure of the shipping process when sending a firearm across the border. Any paperwork I need to fill out or laws I have to abide by when doing so.

No need to ship to the states. Browning Canada in Quebec will take care of you. Look up there phone Number online, Browning Canada service. The dura-touch finish has been dropped from the Browning lineup for durability issues. Browning is replacing them for owners free of charge with the newer synthetic ones. Just call Browning Canada.

Update, Monday I received and email back from the Dura-touch website (USA) form I filled out. I was instructed to call Browning Canada since that was the country I reside in. On a side note I also emailed Browning Canada the same day with my issue and as of today still have not got any email response.(Saturday Sept 12). I called Browning Canada yesterday morning and explained my issue and the service representative took my info and emailed me a shipping label to send my rifle in to have the stock replaced. The lady I dealt with was very nice and helpful, and made the process easy. Now I just have to pack it up and send it. I neglected to ask how long it could take. Once I send it I will keep track of the timeline and report back how long the process took and maybe a couple pictures.

I have 2 brownings with the issue. I sent an email to [email protected] on Nov 13th 2021 with a description of the issue, serial numbers and attached photos showing the 'melting' stocks on both gun and pics of the serial numbers. I received a email response Dec.1st 2021 asking for my mailing address. The new stocks arrived at my door on Jan.27th 2022.
Unfortunately, they are hard plastic cheap feeling stocks. Which is disappointing since the feel of the original duratouch stocks was one of the things that sold me on those models when I bought them.

Thanks for the info may have to email them. Have a Gold where the forearm and stock is getting quite gummy. Thought it was to get/keep a better grip on the thing. Will see if they send me a replace too.
