    PPT in San Diego

    Where do you guys do your transfers in SD?

    I was looking at Gussler's but they are closed on the weekends.

    Has anybody tried Hillcrest Pawnbrokers? I believe they charge $45 for the transfer + DROS

    Thanks

    The price is $35 for a PPT. Set by the Ca DOJ.

    Any more is just an illegal money grab.

    Gussler is a good guy to deal with but he is at the range on weekends.

      I have had good experiences at American Shooting Center on Rufin Road. If you are transfering an AR lower, they require a bullet button. I have gone to Turner's, they always have a line, but they will do a PPT without problems if you take a number and wait.

        Gusslers is good for every transfer.

        Discount Gun Mart at both locations is good for every transfer. Morena is probably the fastest I've been in and out.

        Royal Pawn on El Cajon in Normal Heights/North Park is an easy shop to PPT and deal with and they occasionally have stock on stuff that no one else in the city has.

        Wiser Owl in Miramar is the cheapest place to do non-PPT. They are a smaller joint so it is usually pretty quick to do any PPT.

        Powaw Weapons and Gear is pretty quick about PPTs. Also pretty quick since there aren't usually many people in there.

        P2K needs certain employees on staff to do transfers, so you need to call in advance to make sure when they can do it. We showed up right at opening and the guy told us we'd have to come back at 12 to do the transfer.

        Turner's has a long wait and occasionally when I called they said "we aren't doing PPT right now, too many customers", and I've also had them say $125 to do a transfer on a lower.........Can't quite figure that out.

        American Shooting Center has come up to me the two times I've tried to do PPT there and after asking if I needed help, and me saying PPT, they blatantly moved on to the next customer and told me it might be 15 minutes so they can get to paying customers first. The one worker told me my last time there that she refused to transfer a Saiga because "it's a grey area with the ATF" and she straight faced told me to go down the road to Turners because they would do the transfer no problem. I tried to have a stripped lower shipped to them years ago and they refused to bring it in for me because "stripped lowers are a grey area with the ATF". I have subsequently refused to do any business with ASC, frankly because they don't want my business.

          mievil, I agree with you about ASC!!

          OP, Gusslers is great cause Don is a real good guy. Wiser Owl would be my humble second choice recommendation, followed by DGM Santee.

              Thanks guy! Looking at the list of FFL, I might go for wiser owl since it's location is very convenient for me.

              It says on their website $35 including DROS.

              I am confused at Gussler's pricing

              ◾FFL transfer $40.00
              ◾DROS (Dealers Record of Sale/Background Check) $25.00
              ◾DROS (Reduced) $21.00 (Multi Hand Guns Only after 1st)
              ◾Use/Sales tax of purchase price of firearms/accessories

              Does the price for the FFL transfer include the DROS?? Thanks

                No. Check our Parallax Tactical up in Miramar if you want low price. Wiser Owl has full safes right now and isn't doing any FFL transfers at the moment.

                      I've done them at Turners Kearney Mesa and Gusslers, both are good.

                        Poway Weapons and Gear or Iron Sights are the two I usually use.

                        In my experience, ASC is terrible when it comes to PPT.
