Anyone had a restricted transfer go through in Manitoba recently?

I’ve had one sitting at the Manitoba CFO since May 16th, long before the panic buying started, and in my experience they usually turn them around in a couple of days - in fact had just that happen the week prior to this one. I’ve tried calling to ask what’s going on but of course I can’t get through. Anyone have any thoughts? Can they really be that backed up?
 
I have one hung up somewhere but not sure if it's hung in Alberta or Manitoba. But it's only a week old. Never heard of Manitoba taking that long. Do you maybe not have a gun club membership on file and they're waiting on that? If so fax it in.
 
I'm still waiting on transfers from last Tuesday. Two from cabelas and one from tenda.

Got the reference number from cabelas. But have yet to hear a peep from manitoba CFO
 
June 1 with Marstar and June 3 with SFRC both still waiting for transfer notification. The orders both appear to have processed successfully, just a waiting game with the CFO to complete the transfer so they can ship.
 
Finally got through to them this morning and turns out the transfer went to the registry before they got it, which explains the delay. They were actually really helpful once I got them on the phone.
 
SFRC Ordered on June 8th. Still waiting...........Calling the CFO and and after 10 minutes the call is dropped.

June 8th private sale. Was approved on June 28th

I’ve called the Manitoba CFO about 30 times about the older transfers to see if they needed more info. Usually I’d get put on hold for about 5-10 minutes then it would hang up on me. One time I made it for 45 minutes before I got dropped

Manitoba is not expediting transfers for anyone. Where you are in the queue is where you are. Trust me....I've tried! If your gun club membership is not on file with them though, that will hold up the transfer. That you can just email in (or fax if you have a nursing home around the corner that will let you use theirs).
 
Ordered and got reference number from Marstar on June 6. Still waiting for the transfer. Any others from Manitoba still waiting from beginning of June or earlier?
