Yes. No need to wait 30 days.

You can even buy them at the same time, same place, and the dealer should only charge on DROS fee.

Only applies to dealer inventory on Handguns and Semi-Auto centerfire rifles, with PPTs exempt entirely - (for now - pending passed legislation will remove PPTs from being exempt if the NRA/CRPA and logic don't prevail).

Does not apply to bolt-action, lever-action, shotguns.

Need to do it before 1/01/2024 as after 01/01/2024 any dealer stock; .22 rifles; shotguns etc will all fall under the 1:30 day rule.

Until 12-31-2023: Yes, it is CA legal to DROS a handgun and a bolt-action rifle without violating the 1 in 30 day wait, due to the 1 in 30 day wait only applying to handguns and semi-auto centerfire rifles.

Starting 01-01-2024: No, it is not CA legal to DROS more than one firearm within a 30 day time period, due to the 1 in 30 day wait applying to the transfer of all types of firearms. [PC 27535(a)]
There are exemption to this [PC 27535(b)], such as the firearms are being acquired via PPT or the person acquiring the firearms being an exempt person.

I thought they removed the PPT exemption?

AB 1483 https://legiscan.com/CA/text/AB1483/id/2809095

This bill would delete the private party transaction exemption to the 30-day prohibition. The bill would add an exemption for any private party transaction where the seller is, at the time of the transaction, required under state law or by court order to relinquish all firearms. firearms, and for any private party transaction where the seller is transferring the firearms as part of an estate settlement or bequeathment in a will. By expanding the scope of a crime, the bill would impose a state-mandated local program.

Did something change?
