    30 day limit

    So the 1 handgun per 30 day restriction (bloody asinine) thing... When does the clock start on that? At the time one pays for the firearm, or the time one receives it?

    Reason being that I purchased a firearm a few days ago, currently in jail until 6/6/13. Today, I finally found an out of state dealer with another firearm that I've been looking for to bring in for SSE.

    When can I do the transfer between FFL's and have the CA FFL do the SSE stuff?

      I'm by no means an expert but...

      I think it starts once DROS'd! You can buy the out of state gun and have it shipped to the calif dealer! Then wait the 30 days to DROS'd! Also you can do layaway and have it drosed after!

        You could transfer the firearm anytime, but can't do the dros until 30 days after the first dros. If the dealer is ok holding the firearm that
        Long for you.

          So 30 days after completion of the DROS or 30 days after initiation?

            30 days starts when the CA FFL dealer submits the DROS.

              So if the dealer that I purchased firearm #1 submitted DROS on 5/28 the other dealer can submit DROS on firearm #2 on 6/28.

                Yes. I have done it like that before. I like to wait 1 day just to be sure though.

                      Thanks boys. Confirms what I thought to be true. Just wanted extra eyes to make sure I didn't do something goofy.

                        Technically you could submit #2 on 6/27 (as May has 31 days). If #1 was submitted at 3:00pm, then #2 can't be submitted until after 3:00pm on 6/27. 6/28 would be a safer date, just to make sure times don't get crossed and you don't get charged a second DROS fee because the first one was submitted 5 minutes early.

                          I believe you have to wait 30 days from time of DROS on new handguns no matter which FFL you DROS'd the gun last. I have 3 sitting at my FFL right now and will have them all home by August. If this were another state they'd be all home by now.

                            They're not liberals, they're leftists. Please don't use the former for the latter. Liberals are Locke, Jefferson, Burke, Hayek. Leftists are progressives, Prussian state-socialists, fascists. Liberals stand against the state and unequivocally support liberty. Leftists support state tyranny.

                              They will most likely do it on the 31st day to be safe. The 1st day counts the day the DROS starts
