Is it legal to mail a handful (4 or 5 pieces, say) of FIRED brass from the continental US to Canada?
Are there any other customs considerations? ex. sure its legal, with a proper Form 2134.999ACDF-Q (I made that up, btw).

I know Canada has alot of new restrictions on firearms, but I dont know about ammo and ammo components. Nor do i know if there are any additional customs concerns to follow.

HELP!

Here are the restrictions that the post office puts on things to Canada. Spent brass doesn't seem to be on the list:

You cannot ship live ammo or brass that has the primer intact (IIRC) because the primer and a live cartridge is considered an explosive device.

The worse thing that will happen is that customs on either end (US or Canadian) will seize the package and will send you a "you've been a bad boy" letter that says don't do it again (unless it's something like a firearm, drugs, or some type of wmd).

You may have to yahoo/google/which ever you use "Canadian mailing restrictions" or something like that to find more information or call Canada to get a clarification (Canada is almost like a long distance call now days and they don't charge an international connect fee with most phone companies).
