    Bailey... you had/have an FFL, right? (Think I may have wandered thru your shop in metropolitan Bailey many moons ago.) I agree - I get tired of the FFL bashing threads as well. Maybe you should post a thread talking about the nitty gritty of what an FFL has do during an xfer of the different types. I've always heard it's a headache - raising awareness from the FFL's side of what all goes into it, might make people think about it from the gun store's perspective.

Im my opinion he took advantage of the recent issues for have more earning, for this reason i decide to pick a new one, any recommendations in the Springs area?

    I dont say the name of the place to be Ethic BUT at the same time is not honest, for this reason i decide to change, is my money and i decide when i want to change!

    and if their wife is sick $5-$10 box more dont help in anything...
    Am I having a seizure or something... Under Brady don't you have to be a U.S. Citizen to buy/own guns?

    Sometimes you do as the receiving FFL won't accept shipment from a non-FFL.

    No, you said "transferred". I asked how many guns have you bought from this dealer?

    Do you make your own hamburger there? Your FFL felt his time was worth more than he was charging so he increased it. Find another FFL and quit while you're ahead.

    I dont understand why the alarm and why cannot understand my point, is incredible, i will try to explain for the last time:

    If you are a FFL Holder and you want to rise your fees you are in all of your right, is your business and you put the fee that you want, people can use your service or go away, BUUUUUUUUTTTTT in this days when ALL of us are so angry and frustrated with all stupid bills and laws and this bill/law of the additional Government Fee happens IS NOT A MOMENT, is ethic, is the same this that this people that sell an Bushy AR in 3k, is the same thing, is NOT ethic, is take advantage of the situation, MINIMUM do it months later.

    if anyone continue without understand me, im sorry. Anyway is my opinion and i dont expect that all people think like me, less if is a FFL Holder. Anyway too many friends are send me PM's about honest FFL Holders, thanks guys.
