Cheapest FFL in San Diego or Orange County??

[bluestone]

The only $50 DROS place left in OC I know of is Cowboys & Indians Store in Santa Ana. Not easy to always get a hold of them though since they're always away at shows. Anyone know any others? Too bad about Straightline, I would have used them forever if it stayed at $50

[Khram]

Seems TA the cheapest now of the regular storefront with regular operating hours dealers. I think Turners and Fowlers/stockade the worst

Something like $150-175.

Ade's, Riflegear,Ammo bros and Riflegear all higher than TA.

I tend to do PPT's there as well because usually quick if not busy. They have an automated 4473 system that once you are in it the transfers go quite quickly.

Not all people that take advantage of cheap ship in fees or hassle free PPT's will buy extra but I try to or I feel guilty!

And yes Bud's is a godsend. For many years I never ordered guns online but if you want unusual items nobody stocks or don't want to be gouged it is sometimes the only option.

As an example I have shipped in 28gauge shotguns and a Chipmunk single shot pistols, guns that I know the average black rifle shop would never have in stock.

we need to compile a list! And keep it up to date.
Looks to me De Chiel Firearms is the cheapest. $50 OTD if still correct.

Lol. If you are anywhere between San Diego and Orange County I'll gladly be your first customer. PM me your info if you want, I have a few transactios I'd be glad to bring you.

+1 for me too. Always looking for a place to do cheaper transfers. Sometimes I can find a gun thats a great deal, but realize that after DROS + DEALER FEE's + shipping its not that much cheaper than buying locally

I was just in @ OC Armory & they're actually only $70 out the door, not $75, I was wrong on the previous post. Mike @ OC Armory is a great guy & very helpful.
FYI though, seems like they're out the HSC cards... apparently everyone in the OC is out of them including Turners except for On Target. I went to OC Armory with a buddy who needed the HSC & Mike had to send us down to On Target for the PPT transfer because they're out of HSC cards.

We have LE/Mil discounts. Also, Turners has a rate of 125 or 150 plus tax on sale value of the item. They also won't ship in anything they sell.

T&A Armory 65 hand gun, 75 long gun, 5th is free

[Khram]

I've done multiple long gun at same time ship ins at T&A before. The 2,3rd on same dros were $15 each. They charged me less for a lower ship in then the complete long gun fee as well. I don't do all that many ship in's so the 5th one free will take me some time but it is nice for those of you that do order a lot of guns from other places.
