DROS Denial.

[arrowed]

Hey guys,
First time poster.

So about 15 days ago I applied for my first handgun purchase. Two days before my 10 day waiting period was up I got a phone call saying that my application was denied. So here’s the deal, believe me or not. I have no reason to lie on this forum. I’ve never committed a crime of any kind, I’ve never been 5150’d, I’ve never had a restraining order, I was born in this country, etc etc etc.

I have a valid drivers license with current address as well.

I’ve read up and down the forum since hearing about my denial and haven’t found something that fits my case, which is why I’m posting.

I had one unpaid parking ticket that overlapped with my 10 day waiting period. And I mentioned that to FFL and they said it would’ve came back as “DMV hold” or something to that affect.

I’ve yet to receive my letter from the DOJ (it’s been almost a week, so I’m sure it’s coming soon.)

Man, I thought waiting 10 days for your first firearm was hard. Waiting to get this resolved has taken the cake.

Pretty ****ty feeling knowing that you’re an upstanding citizen that’s been denied their 2A right.

Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks everyone!

Not sure tbh, FFL says it comes in as "DMV hold" or something to that affect.

Parking tickets are written to car's not people. DMV's only action on unpaid parking ticket's is dealing with the vehicle registration they can suspend, revoke, or deny a new registration until they are paid. Since there is no way to know who had parked the car when it was ticketed.

Possible warrant pending or REAL ID issue maybe?

the government doesn't work in time frames of weeks or months...... It typically takes years for corrections (unless you invest a lot of time & effort), especially if it's a correction to help with a firearm purchase...... Ask me how I know.

I’ve yet to receive my letter from the DOJ (it’s been almost a week, so I’m sure it’s coming soon.)

I went delayed then a full 30 days and kicked out as undetermined on my 1st purchase. That was rough but luckily chose an FFL that would release.

2nd purchase was delayed, and then i realized the FFL I chose didn't release to "undetermined", I understood that they would when I asked at the time of purchase, but when they called me on day 7 to tell me I was delayed (again), I said good thing you release to "undetermined" because I was expecting that again. He said "no we will not release to undetermined".

At that point I got busy researching my history and contacting various agencies to get the corrections implemented. On day 27 I was "released after delay".

WHEW!

3rd purchase was a discounted Ruger 10/22 with a coupon from Big5. Cleared after 10 days, no delay.

The rest is history. I feel your pain brotha!

Good luck!

I've heard that it's noted as a DMV rejection.

Definitely no warrants pending. Just went and had a REAL ID issued to me last month.

Maybe that's why the dems want marijuana legalized, it will keep folks from legal guns?

Repetitive masturbation as a teen. It not only causes hairy palms and premature blindness, but DROS denials.

And I blame YOU Ms. Hurley!

It wont pop up as "DMV hold" or whatever. If you owe any money to traffic tickets or dmv you will get rejected. Basically saying "o you have money to buy a gun but you cant pay us? Well you are getting denied"

lolol sounds about right from this state.
