Ontario timeline:

Application received: May 19

CC Charged: Aug 13

Still pending review. People with a later CC date have already been approved and got their licenses. All my questions were No's. Starting to think there is no hope I'll get it in time.

You have more hope than others. Anyday now. Get that pal number once it is approved. Then max out that credit card.

Yea I emailed the CFO and got no response.

Meanwhile, I dialy check the last few remaining handguns in stock and watched their inventory go from the low double digits to sold out or 1 in some cases. I have zero hope anything will be available whenever they decide to get off their ass and stamp my papers.
