Just called my LGS to have an update related to my transfer. They told me the CFO got more than 100k transfer requests which is the equivalent of 2 years worth of firearm sales..

We will have to be patient..

I’ve ordered three handguns since the announcement, including one today.

I expect at least six months before I start seeing them (Ontario).

If I’m lucky, I’ll receive the one I ordered today as a Christmas present to myself.

Holy molly ! Unfortunately my second purchase was from an .... Ontarian gun shop. Will try to move on and forget about it. This way I can only be pleasantly surprised I guess..

The transfer is processed by your province of residence. Doesn’t matter where you order it from.

If you live outside Ontario or Quebec, you’ll have it within a few days or weeks.
