What’s the quickest in-and-out DROS experience you’ve had at a store?

Was going to use Cap Tactical in Torrance for a PPT this week, but it looks like our DC moron bought his guns there. I assume they will be a bit busy with Feds for a little bit going over records, etc.
 
PPT'd a G43X @ Called2Arms, Modesto about six months ago. In and out quick. No BS like the chain stores.
 
Greta’s guns in simi valley. have done many transfers and purchases there. quickest one was a ppt i did that took 15 min in and out
 
I like everyone at Guns Direct in Burbank. Super quick PPT and regular DROS, knowledgeable, and friendly.
 
Triple A in Vallejo is has the largest inventory in the Bay Area. I grew up in San Jose so I hit up most shops in the south bay in my youth. When I moved to the North bay and found my way into this store my jaw dropped as I walked into their shop. The crew there is top notch and always highly knowledgeable. We can usually get a DROS out in 15-20min.
 
Highland guns in well, Highland. Went to start the "10-day prison sentence" on an online transfer. DROS took less than 10 minutes. I spent more time waiting in-line.
 
My wife always knows when I buy a new firearm because I’m usually gone missing :sneaky: for hours doing DROS at Turner’s or Bass Pro. Going to 2A Zone with an appointment is somewhat better, but there’s still usually a line.

Today, though, I went to a LGS to buy a Springfield Echelon Gear Up bundle and was out in 13 minutes (no prefilled 4473, started from scratch), including the minute I wasted trying to find the fourth mag in the bag. :ROFLMAO:

What’s the quickest DROS you guys have ever had?
In CA, Fowler’s in Orange is pretty great. In and out in about 15. PPT done in about 40 minutes total. And they have nice 💩 too. Lol

Ten minutes in Gunsla, Burbank
 
Woodland Firearms in Woodland. Total ppt time was 10-12 minutes. Solid crew there. Takes longer to drive across town.
