The California DROS-Dealer’s Record of Sale Entry System is the background check system that FFLs use to register purchases or transfers to residents of California.
California acts as the Point of Contact (POC) for All Firearms Transactions. California is a “POC state” along with Colorado, Connecticut, Hawaii, Illinois, Nevada, New Jersey, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Utah, and Virginia.
- “NICS states” are states in which the FBI Conducts NICS Checks for All Firearms Transactions
- “POC states” act as the Point of Contact (POC) for All Firearms Transactions
- “Partial POC” states Act as a Partial Point of Contact (POC) for NICS Checks
Accurate data entry is a crucial part of making sure firearms don’t end up in the hands of criminals. Additionally, paying employees to hand-type information into systems like DROS is time-consuming and costly.
