Okay I know its ten days but how do you count the ten? If I DROS'd on the 29th can I pick it up today or do I have to wait till tomorrow?

Ten 24 hour periods from the time the DROS was started.:)You should be able to pick up today, just after the exact hour from 10 24 hour periods ago.

10 24 hour periods from the time that is posted on your pick up sheet. so if i counted right today is good to go, just remember to go to the shop after the time the dros was ran. if you drosed at 2000hrs dont show up at 1300hrs :D

You can pick it up today, after the actual time you DROS'd, and if the shop makes you wait only 10 days. There are some that force you to wait 11 days, just in case.

Today is the end of your 10 days, however, it depends on the store, some of them say the 11th day. Most I frequent will let you pick it up on the 10th day (today) at or after the time you DROS'd it. Call the shop when they open and they can tell you for sure.

Sucks when it turns into 11 or 12 cause it fell on the day's they're closed :(

I'm going to TMW to break in a new Kimber today, hope you get yours as well. :D

A G19 shooting my kimber 1911 just gets too exspensive at times. I needed about 3,000 rounds for training classes in the next two months. I figured that buying .45 for the kimber somwhere around $1000 for ammo. Got a 19 with the law enforcement price (since Glock sees fire/ems as under homeland security, thank you glock) and 3,000 rounds of 9mm for around $800 total. I saved 200 bucks and got a new toy. Of course I end up switching back and forth between guns in the classes so I don't really save any money but the theory is sound.

I know all about 45 ammo costs :( I finally made the decision to reload after watching prices continue to rise. FYI - you can pick up 3,000 rounds of 45 for a little less than $800 (not Wolf) and new 9mm for $159 (per 1k) shipped (PMC) from GB.

+1 on the new gun, can't have enough toys. :D
