I think your dealer is giving you the runaround. When they approve a transfer for a dealer, they just press send and it automatically goes to the dealer. When I buy off a dealer, I just tell them I also need an att, and it comes in at the same time. Last time I bought a handgun at Epp's I had a message on my answering machine to come and pick it up by the time I got home to Barrie, that's about 30 minutes.
