Looking for an FFL
- Thread starter Ozarka
- Start date
I know people that have used that pawn shop and were happy with them, but their google reviews during the china virus don't look good.
I've used Jams Customs, he's pretty good, charges $10 if you have a LTC. Also used Oliviera Firearms. He charges $25 with LTC. Haven't transferred anything since 2019, so you might want to call and ask if they are doing transfers right now. Both are kitchen table FFLs.
A friend had an AR transferred by a pawn shop in the northeast around Dyer couple years ago. He stopped by the Rod n Gun to pop off some rounds on the way home and had a lot of problems. When he got it home, it was obvious the BCG was used and abused.
He bought it from a quality vendor, so suspected the pawn shop screwed him by doing a switcheroo on the BCG. Vendor made it right either way. I don't remember which pawn shop it was, but I'd avoid any in that area just in case.

I must have missed your location.
I used Cash Cow Pawn in Deer Park when I lived in La Porte. Decent folks. $10 for LTC holders. I also used a couple private, kitchen-table type FFL's in an attempt to support them, but the difficulty of coordinating pickup times became an issue.
I have been using BLPS for a while already. The store manager/owner's name is David. Cool guy all around, but I agree that their hours are not set and it can be frustrating trying to meet with them. I call them each time before I head down there to make sure they are open so I don't waste the trip. It's $10 so I don't complain.
In the past, I have used Casa Navarro's in the NE side of town $25, and also Molon Abe $20 in the far east. Both were good and had no issues.
I recommend you find the closest one to you and check on their fees.
They may charge a fee to share licencing information (if not already on file) and verify the pickup times and any rules they may have before you send your firearm there.
I've had some transfers with Brian at West Texas Firearms (NE). Charges $25 for transfers and has flexible hours.
I've also gone through Edgar at All Star Firearms (Eastside). He charges $20 for transfers but last I heard is he might be taking a break so best to reach out to him.
