Just put in an order for a Norinco NP22. Going to call CFO for the license number tomorrow. Does anyone know their business hour?

Congrats. Call CFP instead of CFO, they can give you the ID # over the phone. Hours are 9am-5pm. Don’t dial CFO Ontario extension, you probably won’t get through.

I tried calling CFP then dial 1-5-2 several times. Got hung up after exactly 13min. Anyone know why?

Timezone maybe. They won't respond outside of business hours for your timezone.

More likely budget though.
