    Default Transfer Fees - List of Dealers Charges

    It's time to start a list of dealer transfer fees.

    Charges and policy vary from dealer to dealer. I was just getting interested in a couple of the classifieds here and thinking that it would be worth running the sale through a dealer to guarentee a clean deal.

    If you're buying from the classifieds section, I wouldn't worry about an "unclean" sale. 99.9+% of the people on this forum are good, upstanding, law abiding citizens. I've done quite a few FTF sales with a bunch of members here... it's a great way to meet new shooting buddies! Plus, it brings the forum closer together when you have met many of the members personally. If nothing else, it saves you a few bucks, too!

    Did you want to start a list in this thread?
    If so, here are a couple of central Ma dealers I've used:

    TiteGroup Sporting
    - Northborough. $35 (Last I was there)
    The Gun Room - Shrewsbury. $25 for Long Gun, $35 for handgun if my memory serves me (I avoid that place like the plague anyway)
    B&K Sales - $25 - Natick. This guy is awesome. My main FFL for transfers
    Four Seasons - Woburn. $40 I believe for incoming. $20 + packaging and shipping for outgoing.

    Callaghan's Firearms in Marlboro: $25.

    Titegroup is now up to $45 for transfers, I believe.

    Where is B&K Sales in Natick? Address & Tel?

    I don't understand why anyone would go through a FFL to ship a gun, especially at FS.
    FS sends everything UPS Overnight, a hefty price tag. You might as well ship it yourself
    and save the $20 packaging fee. A lot of FFL's use USPS (much cheaper to ship) but
    FS doesn't.

    When I last got a gun from Yankee Artifacts in April, Phil told me that I could either pick it up at Callaghans for a $25 xfer fee or at Titegroup for a $35 xfer fee. When did Titegroup go up?

    About a month ago. I don't know if that is for all transfers. It is for incoming.

    $45 is pretty flippin steep, man. Jeez. Its not like it is hard work to call a phone number and read off some information. $45 bucks for 10 minutes worth of work is just ridiculous, IMO. B&K sales isn't a 'gun store' per say... meaning he doesn't have an inventory. He can order things for you, and you can have things shipped to him for transfer, but as far as going in and buying something off the shelf, nope. He's by appointment only. Brian is a squared away guy. His number is 508-735-0060 and he's located on 23 Main St in Natick.

    Addition to the list:
    Sparky's Gun Shop - Webster. $20
