    FFL Sacramento Area

    I've never purchased a firearm that required shipping. However, I've found a particular shotgun in Southern CA that I have been unable to find in Northern CA and am very interested in purchasing it. The current owner is a non-FFL and wants to ship it via UPS to a Sacramento area FFL. However, I've been unable to find a Sacramento area (Nevada City to Sacramento) FFL that will accept a shotgun shipped in this manner. Also, I've been quoted transfer fees of between $90 to $140. Is that the going rate?

    Thank you in advance.

    Sounds a bit exorbitant in my opinion. For such a transaction I charge $40.00 plus $25.00 DROS. UPS typically charges between $25 and $40 depending upon weight plus any insurance. Maybe the value of the shotgun bumped the insurance up??

    So, now it is ironic that the State whittles away at the right of its citizens to defend themselves from the possible oppression of their State.

      I probably wasn't clear. The UPS price is not in question as the selling has indicated it's between $35-$55. The question I have is there a local (Sacramento area to Nevada City area) FFL that would accept a firearm shipment from Southern CA from a private firearm's owner (not an FFL).

      Thanks......

              Not to mention the cost of shipping is applied to your Transfer... i just bought my XDS yesterday and it was $14.xx to ship and he only charged me $10.80 for the transfer.
