    A group of friends and I are considering purchasing a lot of military surplus rifles from an online retailer. We obviously need to have them shipped to a FFL.

    The problem so far is that the local shops want to charge us 35-40 dollars per each to transfer them. This is stopping the group buy in its tracks as nobody wants to pay 40 dollars each on a rifle thats worth less than $100.

    We are hoping we can find a FFL that can offer us a fair price on the transfer of the entire lot (probably 6-10 rifles) or a lower 'per each' price.

    Thanks
    What price are you looking for? I can see if my friend will do anything for that many rifles. (would need an exact count) he's normally 40 I think, but may do something for a group, or not...his call but need to know what price you're looking for.

    On the other side of pittsburgh (about 45 minutes from plum borough) there's neville island firearms. They're in the 25 range I think.

    Greetings RWhiteman,

    Look more rural! There may be some closer to you, but I can name two places a hour south of you that'd probably be happy for your business: Ritenour's and B & G Bait in Normalville. Surely there are some FFLs even closer in Washington County or Westmoreland that'd make a deal with you.

    everyone in pgh seems to think its an OK thing to rape fellow gun owners so go with ruraltoms advice and look further out of the bigger areas.
