I ordered a handgun June 3rd, I’ve received a reference number, but haven’t heard or received anything from the cfo. How long should it take before I’m able to go pick it up? I’m in Ontario btw

For anyone wondering i’m still waiting… contacted the cfo a few times and they just said they’ll get to it eventually

In BC you'll probably see your transfer notification this week. For the op in Ontario not so much.
