Transfer approved in less than a day? Say what?

I bought two pistols from a dealer in Edmonton and when I told the CFO I was leaving town that afternoon, they had it done before I finished my lunch. I find the transfers typically very quick, but as others have said its the registration papers that seem to take weeks.
 
I did. Called Moncton, waited on hold, and had it in my email within 15minutes - and my little lady had her revolver under the Christmas tree.... Well, in the Christmas safe. Very very nice lady on the other end. I hope I get to speak with her again.
 
Called the Ontario CFO today for a status on a week old private transfer. (Both of Seller and Buyer in Ontario)
Was told to expect a 3-4wk wait due to them being back logged!….They seem to always be back logged.

biggest issue is waiting for snail mail, get them to email the transfer notification, might shave a week of the wait time off?..., if thats been done, my apologies, id hate to have to wait weeks just to get a transfer..ugh
 
In Ontario, mine initiated before Christmas. called twice including today, said huge backlog. was asking for email transfer. ridiculous.
