Charging more than $10 for a private transfer = illegal?

Mind you, I'm not complaining. Their staff is providing the service. That costs the business money. They also assume the risk.

What risk? There is absolutely no risk whatsoever when conducting a bgc.

Bullshit.
You want a business to take time out from their sales to assist you with a non store purchase, for free. Makes sense to me.

You believe those 4473's fill them self out, then robo call to CBI. Every step requires a person to handle it. It's not your FFL or business on the line if there's a mistake on the paperwork, is it?

Calm down sweetheart. Not bullshit. Just pointing out what the law says. Your opinion doesn't make any sense according to the law. No need to get all cranky lol.

It looks like they can charge a max of $10. The bgc costs them $6. So they are making money. It takes about 3 mins of actual work to complete their part.

You don't get a copy of the results, if you fail then you get a reference number and you have to call CBI to find out why you failed.

Like others have stated you pay $6 for the BGC and then the store charges for the separate service of transferring the firearm. 2 services 2 fees. They need to amend that to $6 max because that's the cost of the BGC not $10 anymore.

And your ignorance how and why things are done is glaring

You don't think there is risk for the shop that processes the background check?

Oh and the BGC isn't the only thing you need because you can pull a BGC off CBI's website directly (or use too). but you need the FFL to do the xfer. That's why the ffl puts it into thier A&D and then signs it out to whoever the buyer is. I think the ATF views the FFL as the "overseer" of the transaction that way hopefully it's "Lawful". But that's IMHO

That isn't what the law says though. What does a "transfer" entail besides a bgc?

No need to personally insult me. Please read the entire law again.

No. If there is, please enlighten me.

That really isn't what the law says. I think that is your average FFL's interpretation.
