Private purchase question

[darkvaider123]

So i purchase a used gun from CGN EE. Now am i suppose to wait for the certificate to mail in or give them a call about it?

I assume you purchased a restricted??
The seller initiates the transfer, you sit and wait.

Get the certificate via email, it's wayyyyy faster.

Once he's initiated the transfer, they should give him a reference number for this transaction. You call them with this reference number and give them your info and Mirimichi will complete registration (ownership) transfer and hand it off to their provincial counterpart - and then you wait. You're in Ontario, so you'll be waiting a while. - and as was mentioned, when you call in to give them your info, ask them to have the province e-mail you - it'll shave a week off your wait time.

If I purchase a restricted off another member from a different province; whose CFO does it go through? Does it go through the seller’s provincial CFO, the buyer’s provincial CFO, or both?

Thank you.

Does the buyer have to call in, as well, or will the CFO make contact if they need anything? I've only bought restricted firearms from businesses before.

If it is a private sale the seller initiates the transfer and gets a reference number. They give that to the buyer and then they call the CFO and give them that reference number and all their info.
Make sure to get them to email the Transfer Notification to BOTH parties in the sale or you have to wait for the paper one in the mail.

So once the transfer notice is complete doEs the buyer call for a authorization to go pick it up and transport to home?
