Re: Sheesh... Gun transfer fees
Doing a transfer tonight or tomorrow for $25 but is $15 if I show my NRA card. I just tell him to keep the $25.
Re: Sheesh... Gun transfer fees
You buy form me, it's inc. Or it's $20, got to keep the lights on. Extra fee for multi handgun. Bulk xfers- Flat fee dep on how many what type.
Know a few dealers that are mad how places like Buds undercut the fuck out of the rest of us and up the fee just for those places.
Just know this- local dealers support local things they don't.
But $50+ fuck that noise it's cheaper to drive up to me.
Re: Sheesh... Gun transfer fees
Speaking of punishing customers for buying online, a local gun shop charges $25 for face to face transfers and $50 for anything bought online from another shop. He told me it's punishment for not buying local. I suspect he's only punishing himself though by missing out on a bunch of transfers.
Re: Sheesh... Gun transfer fees
Plan transfers when you're traveling away from the city... suburb / rural prices will be lower.
Re: Sheesh... Gun transfer fees
Of the places I used they've charged $20, 20, and $30.

I wish more local PA gun stores will post all of their inventory online... especially their sales.... they would probably end up getting more business
All that being said.... I can sense the pressures of the small FFLs staying in business compared to the Walmart like gun stores like buds, or grabagun, etc.
I do understand fees has to go up to stay competitive.... but damn lol
Anyone else feel the same or am I just whining
Well, maybe you should shop around. Do you get your morning coffee from Starbuck's too?
