So even a stripped lower has to be FFL transferred?

Dealer here sold a complete lower to my BIL for 99 bucks plus shipping and tax, IIRC it was 116 out the door, some polymer lower, buttstock, grip internals and all... Obviously if I found a lower for 35 that cost 70 by the end but the dealer was selling in stock for 50, thats a no brainer...

You can put multiple firearms on a Form 4473. A dealer sold me 4 Anderson lowers and did it all on one form. Your local FFL shouldn't charge per firearm, just a one time fee. If they do, find someone else.

I pay $10 to transfer up to 5 items, then $2 for each additional.

Understood. The guy I was talking to in there said that people charging so much was a ripoff due to the process being so easy. I've got 5 lowers to pick up today and I'll hand him a $10 bill, fill out my paperwork, and walk out in 15 minutes.

I totally agree. Now it's even easier. They're pushing for online, so my FFL pulls up his smartphone, enters a couple things and it's done.

I picked up a few aluminum stripped lowers locally for $55 each, tax included.

My guys charge $20.00, but I don't know how they handle multiples-I've never asked.

If they do, find someone else. Bingo. My LGS/FFL will let me transfer as many as I want on one Form 4473, if done at the same time and I don't go crazy with it. $10 transfer fee, $5 background check. If your FFL isn't doing something like that for you, you need to look for another one.

That's the bullshit part of it. Guys in my area are charging as little as $10.00 to some at $50.00. With a set price on the instacheck there should be some regulation on what they can charge. Just another reason it's getting hard for an individual to get full price for a gun. By the time you add shipping and transfer the seller gotta figure another $50 - $100 into the price.
