So i bought my first handgun on wednesday and i was supposed to pick up saturday sept 13th and deploy to yuma,az for 6 weeks on the 15th. well i just got told not even an hour ago that im leaving tuesday the 9th!! SO now i gonna have to re dros arrrgh!! since i will be gone for 6 weeks!!x20000000000000000 I was so close to having my P89!

on the upside, my Staff Sergeant said he was gonna put up the money for the fees when i re dros since he basically guaranteed that i was leaving on the 15th. On the day i bought my gun i even asked him that morning if i was leaving on the 15th and he said yes

Ask your SSgt if you can drive your car there.. It's only like an 8 hours drive.. And drive back to go pick it up..

Well since im not a Snco i cant take my ride there. maybe i could get a ride back just for that though. since im one of the two Marines going Advon for our squadron. we wont be very busy until the main body arrives on the 20th

With the cost of gas it's cheaper to leave it and redros!

Dang! you right

You will have some time after your pick up date before they start to charge you for storage or restocking. I'm with stphnman20, drive down at your first opportunity and pick it up. Then go directly back to barracks. My buddy and I once drove from Orange County to Las Vegas twice in one day because we needed some paper work. You can function on less than 8 hours sleep a night for one or two days.

Man I hate being on Advanced Party.. Well My old BN used to let NCO take our POV to Yuma and CAX.. I guess just wait and re-dros..

[6114DAVE]

allright everybody im signing off till monday or something like that. gonna miss this forum while im in Yuma

[SJgunguy24]

Don't you think the dealer could wave the storage fee? I know there isn't much Dave can do about the DROS. Are the shops down there that heartless?

[ajaffe]

Couldn't you have them mail it to a local FFL in Yuma after your 10 days?

[duenor]

next time, DROS your pistol through us. We wouldn't charge you a fee for being deployed in service to your country. That's just wrong.
