Update On Ontario Restricted Transfer Times

Claven2 said:
so assuming it will take around a month to get through the June 2nd transfers, I really feel things are not speeding up appreciably. Sometimes living in Onterrible really sucks.

Well Marco Mendicino was in miramichi over the weekend at the CFO office. Mr ban imports himself and gave them $800k, I do not know if thats good or bad his twitter account is of full of him in the call center praising their hard work, which I found somewhat Ironic as I hear the phone lines do not work lol maybe the funds are to hire more help or maybe he sent them on vacation

APPROVED: 59453xx private purchase initiated June 20, 2022 and I got through for my part June 21, 2022. I just received confirmation from the seller that the gun is in the mail with a confirmation number.

I was going by your spreadsheet Wolf, which showed this should be approved between Mar 21 and Mar 29, 2023. Wolf this is really going to skew your results. I am still scratching my head. I really won't believe it until the gun is in my hand. Some how it must have fallen through the cracks to the top of the pile. Of course no word on the other one I purchased the same day and others later.

I am going out now to buy a lottery ticket.

If this is real, I should get approved today!!! My private sale transfer was also initiated on June 20th #59454xx, less than 100 than fortytwo45's reference #. I will definitely keep everyone apprised. I do have my doubts, just from reading other posts on this thread

Fourtytwo45's private transfer was AB to ON. I have a feeling the provinces involved matter.

Can anyone explain the effect that the originating province has on a private transfer? Would we expect and ON-ON to be slower than an AB-ON given similar reference number?

No it should not be. Once the transfer number is generated by the CFP the rest is in the hands of the respective provincial CFO.

I am in Ontario and buy a gun at Prophet River in Alberta. They generate the transfer number via submission of documents to the CFP and it gets passed to the Ontario CFO to generate the transfer. Once the transfer is generated it is passed back to the CFP to complete the registration and they snail mail out the documents.

So Prophets role is only at step 1 and then to ship the gun once Ontario approves and gives them notice.

Thats the way i understand it anyway from the RCMP sight https://www.rcmp-grc.gc.ca/en/firearms/buying-and-selling-transferring-firearms.

If that is not right I hope someone corrects.
 
Rustynut1 - you live in Atlantic Canada according to your location - this is for ONTARIO transfers. Stop getting our hopes up - or hopes dashed as my Ref # is 591###X and I'm wondering why you got approved and I haven't. Now I see why....
 
@Junction & @Armourall
I will post here as soon as mine comes through. I have a purchase from June 1st (transfer # was later "5907###") - It is Ontario business to Ontario Resident. Once I hear word, I will let you know. I'm expecting the week of the 12th. Until then.... I wait. :popCorn:

thats 100% correct. province where the firearm will reside is responsible for the paperwork province of origin has no input (excluding Mendicino's Ontario office which has final say in every transfer canada wide)
 
I do believe the transfers that get through faster is through email so check your junk mail
Than the ones that get approval from the sellers Notifying them .

When I was approved it was in my junk email
A week before of TENDA emailing me.

people check your emails before. Contacting the seller
