    I think I screwed up!

    I think I purchased a pistol before my 30 day limit was up. I purchased a new G17 on March 9th, at around 5 in the afternoon. For some stupid reason I thought that it was over a month ago, and I bought a G26 at Wild Bill's in Elk Grove this past Saturday on my birthday, which was April 7th. What happens when/if the DOJ kicks back my DROS?

    Anyone feel free to chime in if i'm wrong, but you'll just have to re'dros it after the 30 days is over. And wait the 10 days for that re'dros.

      Yup, if denied you will have to refile and pay for a 2nd dross. But if you bought it this weekend you should know by now if it was denied.

        Well, Wild Bills is closed Sunday and Mondays, so I'll probably get a call tomorrow.

              It will get rejected. No big deal except you are out your DROS. This happened to a friend of mine, the FFL DROSd him twice within a few days on accident before his 30 days were up (he buys a gun every 30 days and sometimes has several on hold in the queue).

              You don't have to wait until the end of the 10 day wait on your "mistake" DROS to do another on the same gun. Make sure you are outside the 1 in 30, and just DROS it again. The first one will get rejected, the second one will go though. At least that is what happened to my friend.

                the DROS will be rejected, and you'll have to re-DROS is after your 30 days is up. not really a big deal

                  Yup... missed it by one day and however many hours... but, alas... it doesn't matter... it is 29 days.

                  You will get a call, and you will pay another DROS fee... no biggie... happens to the best of us

                      I’m never sure when the clock restarts, it it the beginning of Dros or does the 30 start on the pickup day?

                        It's 1 in 30, so 30 days since the START of your last DROS. I think a lot of people start doing math and think it is 1 in 40 because of the 10 day wait but it isn't. 31 days after your las handgun purchase you can DROS another handgun.

                        PPT are NOT included in the 1 in 30. So you can buy 10 PPTs at once if you wanted (my friend is always looking for consignment guns for that reason).
