CA DROS Delay

[Capybara]

Guess I've been lucky, ten guns in the past six months, different dealers all over SoCal, no delays. When we use our FFL03 + COE to take home the same day, can there be delays? Do they even run the DROS check through the computer on those, I don't know?
Four out of my ten have been FFL03 + COE same day C&Rs.

Any Advice Is Welcomed My Fellow Calgunners

At this point you just wait, other than that going forward always ask about undetermined before DROS.

Ruber,

Thanks for your reply, and that was the answer I was hoping to hear.

Makes one wonder how much the CA. DOJ makes each year on unnecessary extra DROS fees that are likely used to support anti-gun legislation and confiscation efforts.

Anyone else dealing with DROS delays?

1. Once a DROS has been "Delayed" and then transitions to "Undetermined", can a purchaser just turn around and re-DROS the same firearm at the same FFL (yes, I know I'll have to pay additional DROS fees, and I understand Turner's will not release to "Undetermined" status)?

2. Does the "Undetermined" status stick with you after the 30 days until adjudicated or can I simply DROS either the same handgun or another handgun and expect a different result (e.g. DROS "Approved"). In other words is the DROS "undetermined" status a one time event and not tied to future purchases?

ETA ..... Hopefully you did proper DUE DILIGENCE, and chose to only due business with FFLs that RELEASE ONUNDETERMINED STATUS.

DROS "Delayed" on day 7 of 10 day waiting period???

Recent Handgun Purchases:
1. 12/11/2018 - DROS "Approved" @ Vandenberg Rod & Gun Club
2. 12/22/2021 - DROS "Approved" @ Turner's Santa Maria
3. 02/05/2022 - DROS "Approved" @ Turner's Santa Maria
4. 03/11/2022 - DROS "Approved" @ Turner's Santa Maria
5. 04/15/2022 - DROS "Delayed" @ Turner's Santa Maria

NO change in my eligibility since last DROS "Approved" on 03/11/2022.

O.K. I have read multiple threads and scores of posts on DROS "Delayed" and "Undetermined", but have yet to see a post that answers these questions:

1. Once a DROS has been "Delayed" and then transitions to "Undetermined", can a purchaser just turn around and re-DROS the same firearm at the same FFL (yes, I know I'll have to pay additional DROS fees, and I understand Turner's will not release to "Undetermined" status)?

2.

In other words is the DROS "undetermined" status a one time event and not tied to future purchases?

I too believe this is yet another ploy the California Government is using to limit firearms sales to eligible citizens (conspiracy theorists rejoice!).

Thanks

Just purchased a Remington 870 and a Winchester Model 12 from two different Turner's Outdoorsman on the same day (picked up both on the same day after the worst 240 hours of my life...) with no problems. Could be they were classic pump shotguns (both with 28" barrels) and not new centerfire rifles or handguns.

I’ve got a stag receiver and glock 17 in delay at one FFL.

Jut got a text from another FFL about a delay on 2 consignment guns (hk usp elite and baby browning).

I even went to turners and bought ammo today with no issues at all on background check. The guy at turners did say they are experiencing massive delays and even random denials for returning buyers which is strange.

What is going seriously? Or this only me?

Did the FFL call you or did you just go in and it was cleared? I am in the same boat. On day 7 I got the call that it was "delayed" and now I'm at day 14. It's hard to call the FFL they are always busy but don't want to make the 1.5 hr drive if it isn't cleared

I did not, I can ask. It came on day 6 of 10 of the waiting period. Does delayed mean denied? Have you heard of this happening before?

Happens all the time...
