Last day to DROS in 2013? (And another question)

[OC Speedball]

I figured it would be better to ask here than call, and you guys can respond whenever you have time.

1) If someone buys a gun for me how long do I have to come in and DROS it? (How long do you hold)

2) What is the last day I can DROS in 2013 without having to register? For example, if I DROS on December 31st, and pick it up Jan 10th or whatever, will I be in the clear?


Thanks. Love you guys! Serious, you are the only place I shop.

Sorry, we missed this post...

1) As long as the firearm is paid for we will hold it for a reasonable time for you. If a firearm is unclaimed after 180 days, however, it is considered abandoned and we can do with it as we wish.

If it is just a credit card authorization (done online) then we will cancel the order once it is 30 days old unless other arrangements are made.

2) The new DROS system and long gun registration begins on 1/1/2014, until then it will be performed on the old system with no registration of long guns - so you have through 12/31/2013 to purchase a long gun without registration.

Thanks for the explanation. I was looking for this answer.

Additionally, we will be closing at 6:00pm on 12/31/13. You have until then to start your DROS to avoid registration.

Thank you for your business!

No, it's only an "Authorization", which reserves the money for us to "Capture" later (usually when we ship or when you come in to complete the transaction).

Credit Card authorizations are released automatically in 30 days if we do not complete the transaction, which is why we will cancel any online order not completed within 30 days, unless other arrangements are made.

You CANNOT perform a DROS unless you are physically in the store. It initiates a background check, so we need to check/swipe your ID to verify your identity and verbally ask you questions.
