jeeezus, i was all over the site and didn't see that. thanks.
$40 and 4 hrs of your time.
thanks, but not looking to do a transfer, just was curious. my memory sucks but i'd swear they tried to get 50 bucks for a ffl to ffl transfer 5-6 years ago. not condemning them, it's a free market.Try Precision Point, also in Woburn. Only $20. http://precisionpointfirearms.com/transfers/
Whoa! 4 hours is Cabela territory!
I remember the last gun I bought at Four Seasons, they are quick and efficient when they get to you but its can be a bit of a wait before they get to you. At the end of the transaction the guy made a comment about how it wasn't that busy that day. (It was end of lunch hour on a Tuesday)

Last transfer I did was a 30-40 minute process in mid-day in late december (christmas season). While I was waiting I ended up seeing a used gun I really wanted ended up with two guns.$40 and 4 hrs of your time.
If your in and out before you get hungry they are having a slow day...

four seaons:
PRO......you can usually save $40 - $75 on a new gun
CON.......you have to know EXACTLY what you want when you get there....this aint the place to be comparing fire arms and making decisions with 30 customers behind you...... breathing down your neck to get their turn.
CON........saving $40 to $75 on a gun is absolutely not worth a 1 to 2 hour wait in a hot crowded room.....2 hours of my day is more valuable than $75.
I'll never go back there.
Four Seasons will never get a dime of my money.
All truth. I'm even worse though.......I won't even buy online. I'll gladly pay $50 more for a gun at a local shop than stand in line for two hours. I have waaaay better things to do with my time . The customers there crack me up........they are no better imo than the moonbats in line at Walmart on Friday after Thanksgiving.If I'm going to skinflint....I'll buy the gun online. Usually it's a commodity gun...and I'm not looking for good wood, etc...
Usually I can get a price close to FS online shipped. Sometimes even better than FS. The transfer fee 20 dollars, is usually is less than the tax I would pay at FS anyway. Plus gas, traffic, travel time, wait time. The gun comes to my local FFL, which is a short drive, I don't have to wait in line, and the whole process takes 15 mins max, I'm out the door.
I get a kick out of people who live out by me, who travel 1.5 hours to FS, spend 3-4 hours to buy one gun, then another 1.5 hours back, total of 7 hours, 20 dollars in gas and sit in traffic. Then say they saved 40 dollars on a gun.
Then god forbid they buy an overpriced 20 year old glock there....that is even funnier.....
The rare occasion that something arrives F'ed up...(which has never happened), I'll take that chance, and if it does, I'll think of all the hours I've saved not going to FS and dealing with the deli line.
The good thing I use the FS website for....pretty much low dollar value going rate of a particular gun. If I can find it online at FS prices....I know I'm in the ballpark and can stop looking.

I don't gonto market basket the day before a blizzard, and i don't go to FS at their peak times. I’ve purchased many guns, without issue. Don’t like them, don’t go. Why bash?
