Hello,

My license has been approved and in the mail, they have also given me my pal#. Am I able to make a purchase online prior to thr arrival of the physical card? I dont plan on going to the range or anything until the card comes but it would be nice to get a head start on the shipping of a firearm.
 
Wait a couple of days so you can guarantee your card arrives before your firearm. Having the firearm arrive first wouldn't be great.

I did this though, card came a few days before my first firearm. As long as you've got your number & expiry date, you're good.
 
I put firearms on lay away until I had my license in my hand. if you are buying a restricted, it is likely you will have to wait for the transfer anyway.
 
^ Same - have never bought a restricted, but name, number and city of birth was pretty much all that was asked for - maybe also expiry date - Cabela's on-line, Tradex, for rifles - probably a couple other vendors for ammo and powder ...
 
Hmm, there's a Mossberg 5901A Retrograde I want to buy from Firearms Outlet Canada but I guess I'll just wait until the card arrives. I've waited this long, what's another week... I'm sure it'll still be in stock.

Just message them with the story. They'll most likely out a hold on it for you if you back it with a CC.

that is what i did. If you do not have the # but want to lock in the sale. I was advised to put 9999999.999 in pal # slot. Also left comment on order saying waiting for PAL. I ordered the very same shotgun on Nov05. Pal arrived Nov 06. I updated my file and sent email to Firearms Outlet with PAL info. Order shipped Nov 09.
Tracking shows the Mossberg is in Richmond right now with delivery expected on Nov 17
