Welcome Chris!
The paperwork is a pain and it is pretty expensive to ship guns back and forth across our common and otherwise very friendly border.
I highly recommend Chris Dawe in Newfoundland! He is a PGCA Member and has several connections with skilled double gun craftsmen in Canada. Chris has done work for me and I'm delighted with the outcome!
Chris did this work for me.... the top pic is 'before' and the others are "after". The checkering on this one was virtually gone! All that was left were the faint borders.
