I bought my second restricted firearm from a store. Would I be expecting a call from the CFO asking questions such as for the purpose of my purchase?

It's my first time buying from a store and I don't really know what the process is. How long is usually the wait time in BC, from getting the email that the transfer is in process to take the firearm home and getting the registration certificate in the mail?

Maybe on the second dozen. Unlikely on two guns.
