I just received my transfer number after having bought a handgun on june 8th. Store located in ontario, but I'm a Quebecistan resident.

Meaning that it took 6 days to have the transfer initiated in that specific set up. If you're in a similar situation, and bought a handgun more than six days ago, it's likely that turdeau won't be able to put his dirty hands on it.

Just to confirm, this is only your TN, vs an actual approval, correct?

By TN you mean Transfer Notice ? My shop just sent me this : "Your restricted firearm transfer reference number XXXXXXXX , you may contact the CFO regarding transfer status at 800-731-4000"

To me it looks like that the application for the transfer has been well received by the CFO but not yet approved.

EDIT : " it does also says : Once the CFO approves the transfer you will be receiving an directly from them. Once received your item will be ready for pick-up/delivery, thank you. "

So yeah, 6 days just to get the transfer process initiated.

Yes exactly! I think the verbiage is confusing a bit so wanted to validate, but made a mistake because I wrote TN meaning “transfer number” not transfer notification, lol.

My bad. Thanks for clarifying

TN is an approval
