I got my transfer email for my first handgun a couple weeks ago. I was able to pick it up and bring it home but have to wait for the paperwork to come in the mail to take it to the range. On Friday I finally received some mail from the RCMP but it was just an updated license card. Do I still have to wait for more paperwork or is the card all I need?

Thanks for the help!

Yes, you'll get another piece of mail with the conditions slip. My conditions slip showed up in 11 business days and my new license showed up the day after that.
