    Default FFL Transfer from Multiple Parties

    Usually FFLs will give you a discount for the 2nd firearm transferred - I.e. $25 for the first and $15 for each after that.

    What if the items are received from two separate parties - perhaps one being a private seller in-person? Does the 4473 have provisions from saying which item comes from which party?

    EDIT - I'm thinking the 4473 just lists which items are being transferred, and then the FFL logs each item into his book and this lists where they're coming from.

    I don't think there are any usuals. Some FFLs factor the transfer into their costs, some charge one price for one to infinite find transferred, and others charge a fixed rate for each firearm. I've experienced all of those situations from local FFLs. Call the FFL you want to work with and ask for their policies.

    Not an FFL, but I am sure it would be the other way around: the FFL logs in each item into the AD book with the source info, THEN you and he fill out the 4473 and the PICS, then the items are logged out of the book.

    1: No.

    2: Correct.

    Note: Now if it's a non-taxed handgun transfer, then the PA Record of Sales Form does have this information added.

    There is a block (#32) on the 4473 that can be checked. "Check if this transaction is to facilitate a private party transfer" The FFL can then note that in the disposition notes in the bound book that it was a face to face transfer.
