Hey everyone,
Couple of questions around transferring a restricted firearm/buying a restricted firearm for the first time.
1. If I purchase a restricted from a retailer, will it show up on the RCMP website? There is a section when logged in "Check Registration application status"
- Does this only populate if I'm the one registering the firearm myself through the site?
- If the retailer initiates a transfer, does this show up, and after how long would it show up here?
- If it doesn't show up here, as a buyer, is there any way for me to call into the CFO or Miramichi to check the status with only my PAL #, or do I need the transfer number from the seller?
2. How long does a first time restricted transfer take? Significantly longer than a non-first purchase?
- Does anyone have any experience recently in Ontario with transferring their first restricted? How long did it take?
I had something else too.. but drawing a blank right now. Will edit the post when it comes back to me, haha.
Thanks
