How much does your FFL charge?

[jb1911]

I thought it would be a good idea to start a thread like this to help INGO members pick an FFL that doesn't screw it's customers. I've had two lowers transferred now:

Cabela's in Hammond charges $35, Blythe's in Griffith charges $50. I'll never go in Blythe's again. JMO of course.

Bailey's Bait and Tackle between Nashville and Columbus. $20. There is a guy south of Martinsville who offered to do it for $10 for me in the last year but I've not used him yet nor do I have a name or specific location at this time. I found him last time on BATFE's site.

I don't think the FFL is "screwing" it's customers, it's just how much they want to deal with a transfer, the customer has the choice to go elsewhere. I personally think $50 is excessive, but apparently Blythe's thinks it is "fair".

Fort Liberty charges $30. I like it because is the closest place to my house.

RTS Guns in Eaton Indiana does them all day for $15!!!

I bought a blem stripped lower from Palmetto State for $69.95. I picked Blythe's because it's closer to my house. I figured they'd have to be $35 or less. I figured wrong. $50 to transfer a $70 item feels like getting screwdriver to me.

They accept a package from UPS, they hand me a form and make a phone call. At fifty bucks a pop I'd deal with that all day.

$25 for Adobe Premium Firearms in Carmel, IN. I just picked up a NoDak receiver today.

I agree, I would feel like I was raped, but you just learned an expensive lesson, call and ask before you have it sent to them. I learned that with shipping via UPS, several years ago. (I sold a gun on Gunbroker, I was foolish enough to include shipping)

Patriot arms near Clay City was 15 the last time I checked, Terre Haute guns in Riley is 10, and other then that, it seems that 20 is about the norm around here. Personally, I think Terre Haute guns has become a real tough place to beat!!!! And for what it's worth, I wouldn't pay over 20, ever.

Absolutely

The best bet before having anything shipped to a dealer is talk to them first and make certain what their fees are and that they are willing to accept the shipment and make the transaction.

Beech Grove Firearms only charged me $25 when I recently had them do the transfer from a piece I bought from Bud's.

 

[subtlesixer03]

Westforths is $35
Come see me or multi tranfers and I could most likely get it knocked down a bit. Ill ask tomarrow.

$50 tells me they don't want to do it at all.

Midwest Gun Exchange is $25 per page. Transfer 5 items, it is $25. Not the best price out there but it is reasonable.
