Why does it take so long?

I ordered from blue line on the 27th but it is still pending does that mean they are still waiting for paperwork? Seems ridiculous. Can you guys in BC fax yours in? We can even get it the same day if you buy early enough in the day. I am in Alberta.
 
Yeaaaaah... Don't even get me started about the BC CFO... She's a complete joke. My last transfer took 3 1/2 weeks. It's a long hall, bro. But seeing as your in Alberta it should be you CFO that is dealing with the transfer.. So I couldn't tell ya. My guess is the BC CFO is taking a while to get the Alberta CFO papers. My best guess.
 
Is it too much to ask for a simple update? I ordered a firearm on Feb. 28 and my credit card was charged on Feb.28. I have received no confirmation of order or anything. I have inquired 2 times via e-mail for some sort of update on my order with no reply. I have received orders from much further away (Atlantic Canada) in much shorter time. I have already received my shipment of ammo for this firearm. I totally understand high volumes of orders but is it too much to ask for a quick update?

I truly apologize for the delay in our team responding. I will find out what is going on today with this shipment and give you a call as soon as I have an answer for you. We have had some delays as our team was away at the IWA show. I will look in to all current and pending orders and we will be in contact with everyone today. Please PM me with your order details and I will get back to you today.

An order should not be showing as pending after this amount of time. I will look into what is going on and make sure you are updated today. Please PM me with your order details and I will look in to it.

Oh my friend wants to know if you can get a flatter blackstrap for the gsg?

PM Replied.

I have seen many people swap flat backstraps on the GSG 1911's, we unfortunately do not have any flat backstraps in stock. There are several people here on CGN which have modified their GSG's and posted pictures in the pistol section. As I have not modified my own personal gun I cannot comment on what is needed for such a modification at this time.

As far as I know Ryan from playing with one modified GSG, any 1911 mainspring housing will fit, but of course that means losing the mag safety in the process.
 
Funny, I bought a handgun from a gunnut in Ontario and I am in BC. It has been 3 1/2 weeks and when I called the quick reply was that it has only been 3 1/2 weeks and that it was too early for me to be checking. Almost felt like they deliberately hold them.
 
Recently it has taken 3 to 4 weeks to get paper work back in ONT. If you own one or two, paper work should not take that long. I was told they are under staffed.

I have inquired with the BC CFO about the longer than usual wait times. I was treated very rudely, so I would recommend recording your call if you even get to talk to her. I have been told they are under staffed, possibly due to the cancellation of the long gun registry. That'll teach us. So I have come up with some possible reasons:

A: The CFO is a Douche nozzle.
B: They are terribly understaffed.
C: Both A and B are correct.

As far as I know, the end of the long gun registry did not affect thier staffing. YEt with less to do, they are taking exponentially longer to process work of no real value.

Cut thier budget by 8.5% a month until they begin finding efficiencies.
