Does anyone got a restricted transfer lately from QC ? If so, what was the timeline ? I have 2 pending transfers, one initiated the 13 and the other the 14 th of june, still no updates, I spent nearly 3500$ for those two handguns and still cannot enjoy them. It's very frustrating !

I have many other restricted and prohib (due to the oic) fyi so it should in theory be quicker.

Nope, end of the line. This is the way bureaucracy is intended to work.

A friend of mine got his transfer approved (in Qc) yesterday for a purchase he made on June 3rd (not his first restricted, he also has multiple). His approximate transfer number was 5909xxx. That should give you a good idea where we are in Quebec. Judging by the speed of things at the moment you won’t see anything until October… I don’t want to be the bearer of bad news but this is the reality we are all facing. The ones that have it even worse are the first transfer folks. My other friend initiated his first transfer (in Qc also) beginning of May and still hasn’t received anything…

Hughhhh, thanks for your detailed comment, I really appreciate it.

I heard a rate of 400 transfers processed per day which mean my transfer should be both (5932xxx and 5935xxx) done around ** do the math ** in ~ 60 to 65 business days or beginning of november.

Hughhh, man this system is so fucked up, it can't be other than on purpose.

I just hope they will be processing more transfers after the holidays at this point..

Thanks kind stranger
