I bought a Charter Arms revolver from Solely Outdoors on the 21st of June and I just today received a Transfer Approval email.

I am in BC and Solely is in Ontario, so Ontario seems to have about a nine week backlog, give or take a week or two from BC.

I'm not convinced of that. I have made quite a few panic buys through BC businesses and private owners in BC and those went though within a month. The only transfers that I am still waiting on are from out East.

I dont think it is about you being convinced - it is factual.

The Ontario CFO does not play a role in the transfer process.

Was Solely perhaps behind on doing transfers? If not, it is on the BC CFO.
 
Here is my problem with what you are all claiming. I provided first hand lived experience as an example of how long it took between Ontario and BC, and that I have other Ontario and to BC transfers in progress, and that my BC to BC transfers took much less time. Then y'all come along and just say "nope, not true" without providing any other information or referencing anything at all, just expecting to be believed, just like the Liberals. You see my problem?

Why not call the CFP line and let the horse's mouth do the convincing?
 
My private transfer from a seller in Ontario to me in New Brunswick took the same amount of time as my transfer from a dealer in New Brunswick to me in New Brunswick. Both were three weeks.
 
Not to blur this more but Sask has been consistently saying that miramichi/rcmp cfo has had to touch all the applications before Sask cfo office could work on them , perhaps there is a combination of just stuck on the wrong persons desk when they go for 3 weeks of holidays. I called in to see about another vendors reference number after friend recieved his Glock who ordered after me. Now back in The queues with a more reliable vendor

Edit:queues not queens
 
Maybe they were slow to process the transfer. Check your TAN. It will you the date the CFO recieved it and the date it was approved. But it's always your CFO that approves it. I bought a pistol from Cabelas, took over a month to process. I noticed CFO got it on a Sunday, approved it on Monday.

Now this is good info. I'm going to assume the TAN is the Transfer Application Number. How do I read the TAN? Mine was 14 0036986315 02. The Date Received shows the same day that I made the order.
 
Dude, you need to get your logic right... everyone who commented are right except you... Ontario CFO have nothing to do with this transfer, they are only responsible for when the buyer live in Ontario... there is that, doesn't matter if you are convinced or not, it is actual fact... maybe stop being so stubborn and start listening to other people?

Top right, will be Date ( day they approved it)
Some random number
Date recieved
The ref #

But still, your CFO does approves it. As they have to be satisfied for you to own one. The Ontario CFO has nothing to do with it.

Some days there could be a huge flux and back logs I seen transfers take a day, some 40mins, some 2 weeks, some 5 days in the same Province.
