Buy two guns at once?

No 1 in 30, even without a specific letter, for most LEO's (830.1, 830.2, etc). On or off-roster doesn't matter. Perhaps there may be something specific for DPO's of certain departments (like, say LA County, where most arent' typically armed), but for general LEO's, no.
I spoke with someone at Allstate Police Supply in Pomona and they related a recent situation where a soon-to-be-retired LEO bought 8 off-roster handguns all at once, on one DROS, as he was expecting to retire soon and wanted to get them while he still legally could from the source.
Maybe he was trying to finance his retirement....."Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat. ..."

Yes, but my previous comment now needs revision because of the changes brought on with the enactment of AB 2699 that changed PC 32000, particularly for most non-830.1 & .2 LEO's, who can no longer purchase off-rosters except for use as a "service weapon".
