Application / Regulation advice Restricted Rifle stuck at CFO Approval

As title. My new restricted rifle arrived in Canada two weeks ago and since then myself and a couple buddies all have not received approval for the transfer by the CFO. We all called and were told this can take several more weeks...

Is there anything that can be done about this? It seems this is only happening in BC as my friends from Alberta and Ontario all got their approval within 2-3 days.

Fyi: we are in BC...

It has been not been "hit" yet because it is too new. It is just frustrating the extra wait when the CFO arenr busy atm. Everyone is literally shooting it already after receiving their reg certificate sometime last week...
