Got my rpal two weeks ago and made two different purchases. With the given backlog, what is the next step I’m waiting for? I know I’ll be given a transfer number. Does this come from the store or the rcmp?

The store should have provided the reference numbers for the transfers. Now you just wait. Two months+ for me so far. Then the CFP will email you the info and tell you to go pick up the gun.
