The last time I made a restricted transfert in quebec, it took 2 months and a half. Now that I live in Alberta I get the tranfert and everything in less than 15 minutes, I get my gun home the same day.
 
I ordered a Stag from Walt in jan 2008, took just short of 2 months. I talked to a clerk at Parthenais and she said that if it's the first time you order a gun since the "incident" it's going to take more time because they do more verifications. Ordered a RRA lower from Mark last november and it "only" took a couple of weeks.

So the more often you buy, the less you wait! ;)

None what so ever. I have 2 AR's already and I'm still waiting for new 2 lowers bought in the beginning of Dec 08

That makes no sense whatsoever. By their logic, the waiting period is to prevent "crazies" from just buying an AR and "going to town", but you already own AR15s, so what's the point of additional waiting periods?

Public servants and lawmakers should be held to much higher intellectual quotient standards. We're being led around by complete morons.

Thats a bit besides the point...we need to reclaim what was once ours. Our laws should reflect the rest of the country...we need something irrefutable that will convince the cfo here to back down...what argument could we use that would give us sufficient leverage for our cause?

Indeed, that is a very good argument. So whose got the muscle to push it on the CFO?

Very long waiting period !

I bought a lower receiver 12/12/2008 , been waiting since then .

I called yesterday to ask what was going with that and spoke to an RCMP clerk , of course , all was fine with federal side of things , the problem resides on my provicial side . I asked to be tranfered and lady that spoke to me , was very nice , but obviously not very quick . here's how it went .

" Why is this transfer taking so long ? " She answered because they have to build a profile of me , I asked her how they go about that , she stated that they do more background checks and make sure the "restricted rifles " end up in the right hands . I started laughing , as I already own 5 Ar 15 , and a few pistols , other restricted rifles ect... She told me my application for my latest acquisition is on the desk of the "last" person in line , but she is overwhelemed with work and should expect to wait another month or so ... I was thrilled and felt very special and dinstinct indeed .

Only in Quebec ... Its all on purpose to discourage people from buying these types of "evil" firearms . Of course real criminal don't bother with all the red tape , so might as well disarm the honest people and leave only the criminal with guns , makes a lot of sense to me ...

On an other note , to renew transport permit to and from range now takes 8 weeks , as it must be processed . I am sharing this important bit of information because it used to be 2 weeks .

Rant mode now turned to off .

Havea great day !

The way I see it, after the Dawson event, Charest immediately (same day) promised he would do this and ban that... bla bla bla, not knowing anything about canadian firearms laws. Because they are of Federal jurisdiction, he can't do much.... for now. The only thing he came up with are these stupid and bogus rules only because he has to come up with something........

Hope you enjoy your SPORTING rifle....
