Update on transfers, north side

[benenglish]

AFAICT, no one has asked for over a year so I thought I'd refresh the question with a new thread.

I live on the north side, in Spring. My LGS has jumped their transfer fee to $50.

Can anyone recommend a nearby FFL for transfers?

TIA.

Why are transfer fees so high these days? My usual lgs is $50 or $40 with ltc. Seems insane to me.

A&P Armory (now on Alice Rd.) or Believer's Pawn on 249 ($15 (I think) if you have an LTC).

Your are correct insanely high!!! I held a FFL for years after getting it upon turning 21 years old. Really wasn't anything to getting it the the applying a a small fee.

I got rid of it when Slick Willy made having it harder then I wanted it to be. I'm sure other things have change since that Fleck of shit held office.

If you really think it's a high price to pay go over & see what's now involved & fill out the application +pay the cost. Just think if they let you have one you can do it for free or perhaps charge more.

ESAD on the southbound feeder at Rayford is $25.

What I really want to know is why is a suppressor transfer $100 everywhere. Takes up less space in a safe than a pistol.

Probably because they have to store it and track it for a year waiting for the stamp to come through, unlike other items.

Silencer shop transfers are free. If one of the FFLs on their list charge you a fee, let Silencer Shop know about it

Right, so explain to me why a MG transfer costs the same amount as a Suppressor transfer. I can only fit a couple 240B’s in a safe, but I could pack in hundreds of suppressors. Why is it $100 for either?

Ditto here. My guy in Kingwood charges me $20

I just had a transfer this weekend where before I paid $35 and now it's $55.
That is quite a jump. I'll find another place now.
