News to me.

They make you run through hoops to get export paperwork !

And a few have ended up in prison for not doing it.

But as you say, the other transgressions will get him anyway.
Exporting firearms, as in never to come back, requires a lot of paperwork. If a US resident takes guns to Canada, to hunt, it's not that strict. Canadians on the other hand don't like handguns in hands of people without a lot of paperwork and locks/cases.

This guy's in a heap of trouble.
