Name spelled wrong on DROS

[Trriemferent]

So I opened DROS of a rifle yesterday and at the end of the process I noticed the kid behind the counter had misspelled my name. I told him and he said he would do a revision. He filled out another sheet of paper with the correct spelling and said this would take care of it. Im wondering if this might delay my pickup.

I would not worry.

The actual check is quick. 239.5 of the 240 hours you wait to pickup your firearm is the CA cooling off period. You should be fine.

I usually don't even bother to fix them. I have never had anyone denied or even delayed for a misspelled name.

I was delayed for a mispelled name 5 or 6 years ago. And it was only my first name mispelled (it's not a common name) but the FFL who was doing the transaction at a gun show spelled it wrong (he was DROSing an out-of-state rifle transfer to me that he agreed to receive). Important to note that this was a manual entry, some time before utilizing the magnetic strip CA DL.

4 days later DOJ put it on hold; the FFL called me to tell me it was delayed but he couldn't tell me why - either they didn't give him the details or it wasn't made cleared why it was put on hold, I have no idea. I had to call the DOJ/BOF to get it straightened out. I could not get hold of anyone that afternoon so all night I was freaking out that it was something more serious.

Next day I got a lady on the phone who was very nice, she asked me some questions, and right at the start we discovered the problem; we went over a few other things to be sure all other things were correct and within 2 days it was back in order and it didn't add any time to my 10 day persecution.

It was an easy fix/DOJ resolved it in whatever they do, and I picked up the rifle with no further issues. Yours was caught while he was doing it so I bet you won't have any issues, and I'm willing to bet it went through electronically correct.
