Ontario, restricted transfer initiated June 1st ref#5888xxx. We got to be getting close right? I can feel it in the cockles of my heart. Maybe even in the subcockles.

Sadly, there's a bit of variables, but it lines up fairly well from what I have seen thus far.

Wow. I was going to buy one more but if I have to wait six months to a year I'm not even going to bother.

If you think that's bad and wait till fall. There's a real good chance you're going to wait a decade or more before you'll get the chance to even try to buy one .

Ha yeah, I just want a full size revolver but I've had one before and didn't love it, but just incase I might love one later.
