C&R handgun PPT\COE 10 day wait exemption-HELP

[m1a1driver]

I have a C&R and a COE. I got the two so I could skip the 10 day wait on C&R handgun purchases. Its been full of headaches... hardly any FFL's i've been to know how to do the transfer.. I always call ahead of time and make sure, however today really upsetted me. I called this place TWICE to confirm they knew how to do the PPT, they said yes they do. So, i get there today and they just flat out tell me they dont know, and I may have to wait the 10 days. I was pretty mad, however they had me and the seller fill out the paperwork and told me they would call me toomorrow after they spoke with the doj. can an FFL here explain to me the exact process that has to be done to run the C&R+COE wait period exempt dros So I can print it out and use it as reference so something like this doesnt happen again? I drove 90 miles to the FFL...now I have to go back again. to pick it up whenever they figure it out.

The first tab would be the transaction type, would would be the Private Party transfer, click on "Handgun". Then under the "DROS" tab, for the waiting period exemption you would select "Collector".

If they don't know what "Collector" is, then they need to look it up.

18. Are there any exemptions to the waiting period?

For most people - no. However certain exemptions do exist for the following:

b. Persons with curio and relic collector's licenses issued by the ATF and who have a valid Certificate of Eligibility issued by the DOJ are exempt from the waiting period only when purchasing curio and relic firearms.

(PC sections 12078 (a)(r)(t))

The CA PC has changed, but the web page has not.

Yea i learned the hard way, even if thr ffl says they will do the transfer ALWAYS arrange it during th doj's business hours. I had them refuse to do a transfer without calling the doj since it was after doj's phone hours , even though i confirmed it twice on the phone with the shop the day before. Cost me half a tank of gas...
