Transfer of hunting rifle gone bad!!

[bill c68]

This happened to me also, from a very well know guy here on CGN. I was on my final notice from the cfc when he finally transfered it. If its the same guy I think he will transfer it when he gets your pm, from the number of deals he does he probably forgets a few now and again.

I know I do, in fact every once in awhile I like to get an inventory printed off at the firearms office, so I can look and see what is in my name and what is not.

Hi fellows, everything is taken care of Misunderstanding on both ends of the transfer and CFAC made a mountain out of a mole hill.

Cheers!!

WOw, what a suprise...


Told ya

Misunderstanding ... whatever : WHY did it take six months ???

Between the two of you, seller & buyer, were the Transfer Notifications received? And as the new Cert didn't come through in a timely fashion ... Who wasn't following-up ???

A lot of people panic a little too easily because they're worried about getting into trouble with the CFC. I'm not saying that can't happen but all my dealings with them thus far have been positive.

Uh huh.....

Sounds like the CFC sorted it out.

Maybe we should start a thread on mistakes we experianced if any, made by CFC.

I ran into the same thing when I sold a rifle here.I started the transfer and PMd the reference number.I got the transfer # from the CFC, and the M/O about the same time, and sent the rifle on it's merry way.
I got confirmation of delivery from the buyer , and all was good, until a year or so later when the CFC phones me on a Sunday to tell me that the transfer had never been completed.I got in touch with the buyer and he assured me that he had a registration slip in his possession, but would call the CFC(Cluster F**k Central)and complete it for me.About a week later a got yet another notice that the transfer had been competed.(I hope this one takes!!)

I trwded and sold about 5 Ruger single shots within a week, a wwhile back(last year).
I got letter a month ago saying that I neeeded to complete the transferof one!!
My fault, got mixed up , wwhat wwith my computer crsashing, and some stuff at work and family isssues.

The bottom line is , the seller had my PAL, the transfer had started, I had not got my end done to copmplete it is all.
I don't think it's a "show stopper" as far as deals go, just a glitch.
The seller knows where the rifle went, the buyer knows he paid for it.

I missed one transfer a while back as well, I was buying Mosins every week. I got contacted by the seller of one several months later saying I didn't finish the transfer.
Bottom line is the system is a joke, trying to make everyone paper criminals.
