$45 is high for a transfer. Most charge $20-$25 and you can search for an FFL by zip on Gunbroker.com.
I use Mark Montgomery, he is here in Helotes and charges a good price (I'll let him quote you that), but he is a good guy. His number is 210-268-7591
Whoop! Forgot one I know on the NE side! Dan Willis at Leatherneck Firearms in Cibolo. His number is: (210) 363-2332. A retired Marine and a great guy!

Glad to hear it, Dan and I work for the same company and he is a helluva good guy! I'm glad I could help make it happen, and get home soon and safely!
Cheers! M2
