This feels like a dumb question, and probably is but I'm going to ask it anyway. Are all restricted transfers in the same queue? Or are handguns being handled seperately? The only thing stopping me from buying a PS90 is the insane wait time for the transfer to go through.

Same queue by province

Figured that was the case, thanks.

You should still jump on it if you see a sale. I think Reliable Arm had a sale few months back and they were selling them for $2299.

I think TNA are all selling NR PS90 with barrel swap for $3500.

Yeah, they are. Not interested in the NR version for the price I'd pay for the R + the SBR barrel, which is my goal.

I could jump on a sale one, but right now I'm just figuring why not wait until the handgun heat dies down and transfer speeds drop? But yeah, $300 off is good.

Then again, ugh.

I mean you will still get it quicker if you buy it now though. The transfer now might take several months(or more in Ontario) but if you wait those many months you will just be that much further behind the queue. Might as well buy it now 👍

It will take a while for the handgun transfer to die down, so if you get a nice discount during the sale, you can put the money toward a SBR barrel.
