Both will ship.

Found it on Amazon.ca. 38 bucks. Not sure if that's a good price or not!

https://www.amazon.ca/Brownells-JB-5.../dp/B0018L9UOW

PS. Buying from Amazon is slick. Never had an issue!

AFAIK, J-B products are produced by Brownells under exclusive license.
Why would anyone want to purchase anywhere else?

http://www.brownells.com/gun-cleanin...-prod1160.aspx

We often see questions here asking for a CA reseller of a specialty product from the USA.

Canadian business wanted and are big supporters of 'Free Trade', FTA, NAFTA, CEDA, TPP, etc, etc.
Why would any of us now be prepared to pay them significant markups in order to purchase a US product from a Canadian reseller?

Purchasing from the US is a procedure that is relatively easy to learn, and IMHE usually results in significantly better service and price.

IMHE, Brownells in particular provides excellent service, and a wide range of products in stock, (and is willing to special order any items they do not regularly stock). They have an excellent export desk to aid in any required export paperwork.
It is expensive to pay postage & CBSA fees on a single item, but larger orders (particularly of light items), spread the shipping cost to a very reasonable level.
The problem that most of us have is we want to order a lot of what Brownells has available.
Good Luck, YMMV.

I received my last order of J-B cleaning compound from Brownells, in Calgary ~1 or 2 yrs ago.

USPS will not ship liquids (due to risk of leakage?), but J-B is a paste.
I very seldom ship via UPS or Fed-Ex and do not know their policy regarding liquids.

Good luck, YMMV.

Well, I can order from someone in Alberta and receive it in three days or order from Brownells and be lucky to get it within two weeks.

YMMV but not likely.

That's Pietsch. The reason I asked, is because Dick was up by U of C and I have not lived in Calgary for over 20 years. Your opinion of his gun repair ability is of no concern to me and that is why I used P.
Never heard of brian hogg.

Probably true, MHE tracking USPS parcels is that they report several quick scans on the way to the border and leaving the US in ~ 2days, then no tracking reports from Canada Post until they report 'out for delivery' at destination ~7-10 days later.

Good Luck, YMMV.

So you aren't getting them for two weeks. This isn't just a random observation. I have ordered all kinds of stuff from Brownells, Sinclair etc over the years.
