If this becomes law they should dismantle the EFA-10 requirement and dealers only do a Federal check and a simple license check without gun info should be enough. Since they all claim it's not registration.

What, and do away with their non-registration data base? And how many hacks at the state level would have to be given different hack jobs? What the hell do you think this is, America?

That is truly an amazing statement. I don't question that you are sincere about that, but I sure wish I were in a business where a few minutes of computerized paperwork yielded $25-$40 in cash. Perhaps if this nonsense ever really becomes law, maybe part-time, by-appointment-only "transfers-only" dealers will become a thing.
My experience isn't nearly as bad as some members here are implying... but okay, I'll bite: What would the personal transfer fee have to be for it not to be an undue burden on the dealers even with the most clueless customers? $50.00? $100.00? More?You wish you were in the business, but if you were you’d learn really fast that fee isn’t worth it

I honestly wish that all the dealers in this awful state had customers taking numbers and lined up to buy just like Four Seasons on tax-free weekend, but my observation is that is rarely the case. Has a personal transfer ever held up a sale or made a customer walk? Maybe so... somewhere. I've not seen it, but that doesn't mean it doesn't happen.
And if your price for a personal transfer is costing you money or lost sales, I believe you should raise it regardless of what the state might decide to do to us this time around. I hate the thought of our dealers losing money. In this awful anti-2A state, we need all the good dealers we can get.
Wow!!! Impatient customers! But it's good to know that you are that busy!To answer your other question, I’ve had many customers held up because a transfer slogged along , and yes I’ve had customers walk also

The fact that you feel you'd be forced to go "no private transfers" gets back to my point that non-stocking by-appointment-only "transfer-only" dealers might become a thing if the state doesn't object to it. Tiny commercial office spaces can be had for cheap. I'm a retired senior citizen and I'd love to have such a part-time business.
