Austin FFL Transfer Fees

[breakingcontact]

This is a running thread...has anyone posted that "FFL finder" link? I think it has transfer fees on it.

New shop in Leander. On 183 south of HEB. High prices on guns but $20 transfers.

"Old cannon" in far east pflugerville is still doing xfers at reasonable rates as of 2 months ago.

+1 David is a great guy to work with.

Yeah, I've used David (Old Cannon) for several years now. He's a straight up good guy.

I didn't like the old store but the new one and new owners seem much better.

Yep - I dunno about the "new" owners but I bought two boxes of Winchester White Box 44 magnum a few years ago.
First two rounds went off ok but the third made my Marlin ring like a bell. I had to get a rod and pound out the brass. Dumped both boxes and found a few odd head stamps and in the second box there were even a few different bullets! Reloads sold as new. Disassembled all of them and I'm glad I did. The powder looked like H110 and it looked like over half were about 2-5 grains over max. Likely could have destroyed my gun.
When I went back they claimed that they weren't responsible for the "previous" owners misdeeds.

I just used GT for an FFL transfer on a lower. UPS told me they had delivered Monday morning so I called at noon. Turns out their "policy" is 24-48 hrs after receipt unless you want to pay an additional $25 rush fee.
In fact they called me the next morning so 24 hrs it was. This may be a deal breaker for anyone needing it ASAP.

Bring up Google maps and just type in FFL. I know I was amazed at the number of FFL's in the area...

Shady Oaks Gun Range in west Cedar Park is new enough not to be on many sellers' lists. As a member there, the FFL fee for me is $25...reasonable enough that I'm receiving my third pistol through them in the next day or two. Really convenient for me since I seem to be there a couple of times a week anyway

Used GT for an FFL transfer earlier this year. My rifle was delivered to them on a Monday, but they didn't call me until that Thursday for pick up.

Not Austin, but I know a guy in New Braunfels that does transfers for $15 with a Chl $20 without. Nice guy, Vietnam Vet does it from his home . If anyone in that area is interested.

Bumping this thread to see what FFL's you have been using this year and what their fees are.

I used Hill Country Ammo on Dessau Road. Transfers are 15 bucks.

Hill Country Ammo

Not a store front, you have to schedule with him. Very nice guy, will use him in the future.

Thanks for that. His firearm prices aren't too bad either; i.e., Shields for $363. I'll give him a shot (no pun intended) at pricing what I was going to order online and see if he is close. I have several things I want to buy.

Just remember he's not a regular store. You'll have to call or e-mail first. He's a super nice guy (Jeffry) and does this as a side job.

Brothers in Arms on 71 in Bastrop County charged me $25. I presented a CHL so not sure if there was a discount because of that.

Not much of one. CTGW on 71 in Austin is $15 w/CHL, $7.50 w/CHL + TexasLawShield.

+1 one on CTGW (Central Texas Gun Works). I have been using them for the last several transfers at the $7.50 rate. Nice people there!
