Put it in a good sturdy cardboard box with LOTS lot padding so the heathens at Canada Post don't damage anything. Put lots of tape on the box, including all the corners to lessen the chance of it being accidently broken open (see: Can Post heathens again). Name address, and return address only on the outside. Do NOT write : fragile: gun inside, or anything of the sort. If the folks at the post office ask what it is, tell them it's a car part. It's nobody's business that you're shipping a gun through Canada Post, and it's the ONLY legal way to ship restricted stuff in Canada.
