Have any of you used Lee's Gun Parts in Irving for FFL transfers? I hear they are $10. I tried calling a number of times today, but busy everytime.

How exactly does that work? Just call em and tell them, then give that shops info to the guy you're buying from? Then does the FFL buy the firearm from him, and you buy it from the FFL plus the shipping and extra charge? I've never done it before.

your FFL sends the info to the shippers FFL it gets sent there and then you go pick the weapon up from the ffl and fill out the 4473 and pay the trans fee....

No the money would go to whoever you where buying it from, they are just shipping to your FFL becuase it is out of state or whatever... if your doing a hand to hand transfere you dont have to do the form (in my state your may be different)
if you get a firearm from out of state it is suppose to go through a dealer when it shows up in your state for you to do the form on....

Exactly.. for example...
Suppose ADCO has a RRA 6.8 you want. You contact them and pay for it over the phone with your CC and give them your FFL's name.
-If they have your FFL's license on file, ADCO ships it right away to your FFL.
-If ADCO doesn't have a copy of your FFL's license, then your FFL has to send them a copy. Then they ship the rifle.
Once the gun arrives at your local FFL, you go pick it up and fill out the transfer paperwork, pay their transfer fee. Take your gun home.
Most FFL's do transfers because it's easy money and they get to meet new customers. $30 to $50 is common per transfer, so $10 is a deal if Lee's is doing that. My FFL charges $40 per transfer. $10 sounds much better!!
The other way is if your FFL orders it for you, then you pay for it when it shows up as if they had it in stock.
Lee's says he "tries not to" do FFL transfers.
A guy I have used in Garland does it for $15.
The advantage of ordering yourself from out of state and going through FFL is that you don't pay sales tax.

Yep.. very good point, the sales tax. That's 7% to over 8% in some places.

My dealer likes it if I use him to order my firearms through, which is understandable but he only charges 25 bucks (when he charges me at all) for transfere....
Rays..I love that place! Anytime I'm in the Dallas area I make sure to stop in and look around.
Great people to B.S. with and lots of goodies to drool over.

Who do you use in Garland? I might like to meet him and go through him especially for that price. I have used a couple here Mc Clellands and B&S. Both are good and get it done but it is $40 for each.

I took note of that one. That's a great price for a transfer.
