Would love to participate in this thread, but I live in Ontario, so maybe next year. Bought 20 pistols and revolvers starting May 31, and there's been nothing but crickets from Ontario CFO on every single one of them. Unbelievable. Broken by design.
It saddens me to say that I'm relieved I'm not the only one in Ontario who has heard absolutely nothing for going on 4 months now.
The AB CFO has pretty decent turn around right now. I sold a pistol to a member in AB and the turn around was less than 10 days.

I started a transfer to someone from Alberta on August 12th and it's still not done...
There's another thread on this topic that may be helpful. https://www.canadiangunnutz.com/for...ricted-Transfer-Times?p=19118535#post19118535

I bought nothing. After the loss I experienced during the OIC I cannot keep dumping money into this sport. I have about $25,000 sitting in a safe collecting dust now. If they did a handgun ban, that number would increase MAJORLY. I will keep what I have and maybe add some NR's but that's it.
HK USP 9 Tactical. But now I am at a crossroads. I wanted an HK USP 45 but could not find one anywhere. So I bought a HK45c and then I bought this. As soon as I closed the deal on this one a CGN'er reached out to me with a USP45 and a very fair price. Needless to say I pulled the trigger. Now have more HK than I intened. Sadley this one is on the EE. If it sells great. If not thats great too.
It is such a fantastic pistol. This is my 4th HK that I have owned and I had forgotten just how truly awesome they are. Still waiting on the 45c and the USP45

Of the many dozens of handguns I’ve owned over the years, I’ve never splurged for a HK. Just could never understand what made their piece of polymer worth twice as much as the other plastic guns out there, and never came across a P7 for a (relatively) decent price when I was in a spendy mood either. So please do educate me, seriously no sarcasm, what makes you HK lovers so devout?
I would not say that I am a devout HK lover, Rather I am a lover of well crafted pistols. I cannot say for a fact what makes an HK better than the runner up polymer pistol but I can say that I really enjoy a Polymer Hammer fired pistol and the other options on the market (CZP07/9, FNX9/45) do not come quite as close in fit and finish in my opinion. I like the DA/SA trigger and the decocker/safety. I like the way the grip feels and the paddle mag release. I believe that they are just made to a higher level then that of other plastic fantastics you there. I have / had almost every modern polymer pistol on the market and I would say that the build quality is just like nothing else. I say this about the USP line of pistols. I am NOT a fan of the latest generation of HK pistols such as the SFP9, P30 and Hk45 (although I do have a 45c on the way). I find them to feel a little bit lesser quality and I DESPISE the finger grooves, what a way to ruin a pistol. The most accurate pistol I have ever owned was the HK USP45c. I was blown away by just how accurate it was and it certainly wasn't me. I regret selling that pistol so much. There are also many things I dislike about the pistol such as the dumb rail, the limited access to accessories and holster and the stupid cost of mags. But I digress. This of course is my Opinion and I am not saying HK is the best, rather I just appreciate more things about it than I do other pistols.
Best gun I ever had.

Thanks for taking the time to respond. I’m a big fan of (flame suit on) the Beretta PX4 for many of the same reasons.

Tough choices. To me the Tactical is one of the standouts in the 9mm lineup. Yours is listed competitively.
