okay so does anyone know the requirments for taking an airsoft gun across the border from the US to Canada? and does it change if you are a canadian citizen?

you can't. well you can try but most likely you'll loose it if caught.

You need an import permit to bring airsoft guns into Canada reliably. Without such a permit, you have to rely on the border official being in a generous mood, because the law says you're not allowed to bring it in. If you do not declare the airsoft gun, it's smuggling and wins you a stripped car, the rubber glove and fines if they catch you.

There are none for individuals. If you are a business with the appropriate licensing, maybe. But businesses don't usually drive or carry them across the border.

I think you're missing a 0 in there somewhere.
