10 day +1 hour wait?

[SarcoBlaster]

Purchased a new pistol from a store a couple of weeks ago, looked at my copy of the DROS today (picture attached), and noticed the earliest pickup date was 10 days +1 hour. Did something change recently? Or is this kind of like how Big 5 adds an additional day as a CYA thing?

Also, I have another new pistol that is waiting to be DROSed, so the 1-in-30 means I can't start that DROS until April 11 at 10:44 AM, correct?

Thanks!

Bass Pro has a 11 day wait. It's a buffer for the crowd who clogs the counter trying to get their gun out hours early. I don't buy guns from Bass Pro.

240 hours plus is the law. Different ffls have different rules.

Perfect, didn't even think about that. Thanks!

I realize that different FFLs have different rules, but this was on my copy of the DROS, not some proprietary form/receipt that was handed out.

It's probably a check. If you get a copy of your DROS, it should have pickup time on it

Reed's Gun Range in Santa Clara has an interesting rule. If you don't pick your gun within 24 hours of the pick up time, they will charge you $100 for the next 7 days. So basically, if you don't pick it within 24 hours of the pick up date/time, you might as well leave it another 7 days 'cause you're paying for it!.

I personally can understand their point. The guy there said they had over 100 guns sitting in the back that had been there over 30 days!

A lot of FFLs just do 11 days so it eliminates anyone coming in early even by a few minutes. The 10 days + 1 hour protects them from daylight saving time errors.

I would never use them. That's a BS rule and a money grab. I would never buy another thing from them if I lived near them just for having a rule like that.

I do, sorta, and I don't

The time of pickup on the DROS sheet is done by the DOJ. The shop may have its own rules for 11 days or something like that but they can't change what is printed on the DROS sheet.
What you see on the OP's sheet is due to daylight saving's time.
