Everyone who bought a gun from an online retailer after the mass buying panic - How long did it take for them to accept your payment and process your order (send the paperwork to Miramichi) ? It’s been almost 72hrs for me and I haven’t heard anything back, is this normal considering the situation? Usually my order is processed the same day or the very next day.

Depends on the retailer, but how do you know they haven't started the transfer? Five minutes to two hours has been my experience.

My credit card hasn’t been charged yet. It only says « authorized transaction » with the right amount but the card is not officially charged so I assumed it meant the seller didn’t acknowledge my payment and therefore didn’t process my order yet
