I had confirmed it some time ago (late last year/early this year), but it absolutely is my fault for not rechecking. I’m more shocked ANY gun shop would charge more than $25-30. $40 for maybe 10 minutes of someone’s time and no background check needing run? That’s pretty ridiculous.
Was bought all at once . Sadly , they’d done 4-5 transfers for me in the year before that . Said they had a new guy came on that was managing all transfers . Hence the new charges . Typically when I do a transfer , I’ll drop $100 + buying merchandise . I’m not a cheapskate . I know what they have to do .
Ok . Bless your heart . Please read all my post !
A lot of places charge $40 to $50 honestly. The paperwork doesn't take that long, but how long are they required to store it?
I miss CGP and Truprep being free, but $20 is still but that's north Atlanta. I've found south Atlanta and Macon are $30 to $50, with Quiet Riot being the cheaper and some not doing it at all.
Again, insanity. I picked it up barely 24 hours after delivery and any LGS who transfers in firearms for me never has to wait more than 1-2 days.
$20 is reasonable and I’ll never fault stores like TruPrep or Big Woods for that. They’re good LGSs and good people. Their employees have to take time process/intake, plus review my 4473 (no background check as I have my GWCL). The $40 was in Marietta, which is what blew my mind.
I did two transfers at the same time at CG&P recently. I was charged $20 each as I had expected.
Not a big deal.....

I charge $10 for a transfer. That is $10 per form, not $10 per weapon. I can put 3 on a 4473 so up to 3 is $10. More than that requires a continuation form which is $10 more. I can put 25 on a continuation form. If I have to do a background check that is another $10. In other words, if you come in and transfer 28 rifles and I have to do a background check, it is $30. If two or more are handguns then another form, multiple handgun sales so $40 total for 28 firearms including two or more handguns. Up to 3 rifles with no background check is $10.
This is extremely fair. Too bad you're not in my neck of the woods.
LGS local use to do em free for ODT Members til an ODT member had 5 lowers shipped there at once. Ended that
