Transfer Times

Purchased through Epps last week and spoke to them on the phone on Friday. He said 6-12 months before I even see my handgun.
 
got 2 approved purchased both 12th of august but one submitted only the 23 rd of august. i called in today bccfo. still one purchased in august but not submitted to cfo before mid september,. hope this helps
 
I just made a sale from BC to a guy in Nova Scotia. He emailed me saying he had done his part in completing the transfer. The NS CFO sent me the transfer 10 minutes later. Shocked to say the least.
 
They are on June 7th in Ontario as of this morning

I can confirm this because just this morning (Oct 6) I received a transfer approval for a June 7th purchase (59217xx) and Tuesday (Oct 4) I received approval for a June 6th purchase 59194xx.
 
FYI, called the BC Firearms Office 800-731-4000 yesterday, October 6, 2022 - 1pm, waited for 30 minutes, finally spoke with a very pleasant lady, asked how long transfers been taking currently and she confirmed 12-13 weeks at the moment. Hope this info helps everyone.
 
Just an fyi for anyone if you are in Alberta call the cfo they are happy to approved your transfers if you are the buyer. 3 days ago when I spoke to the lady after 10000 calls and waiting for an hour she said she could do only 2 approvals which she did. Called again the next day and she did 3 more. Sadly ontario is a disaster and I don’t see how any approvals will be done ever there. I have bought and sold 15 guns outside of Ontario all after two sales to Ontario and those 15 have been approved and I am still waiting on Ontario. Sad.
 
Just spoke to Ontario CFO. They are still only on June 7th but can see the 8ths transfers up in queue.
I’m pretty peeved that my June 5th purchase didn’t get until June 22nd #5950### bus to private
But new staff is incoming and they are clearing days a bit quicker now

Thank you but not sure if this is correct. Today is week 12 for me and a friend of mine transfer within BC on June 30 and still waiting......he is at about week 16. Hopefully not much longer.
