SLIGHT RANT - Outrageous NFA transfer fees

.....sorry I just had to vent.

I have more than a few NFA items which were purchased through a SOT in SC a while back.

I currently have 4 suppressors which I need to have transfer ins done for... I've contacted a few SOTs in the area and.....$100 per transfer..????? When I inquire about the price, I'm told that it's for the paperwork and having to store the cans. I can MAYBE understand that the transfer is a bit more than a standard FFL transfer, but if I'm needing 4 and it's $100 per transaction?

I know that NFA is an expensive game, but it almost seems that dealers are exploiting that fact with charging such an amount. I've dealt with the paperwork....it's not all that much more than a standard transfer. As far as storing the cans....really.....charging that much for rent in a safe...?

Please someone feel free to knock me off of my soap box and tell me a good reason why all of these transfers are so expensive....and I mean some intelligent replies. I'm not new to the game but think that these prices are ridiculous....

Thanks for letting me rant a bit....

Check out:
Hansohn Brothers
Transfers - Imports - Class 3
540-748-8155

they are on VAGT,located in Culpeper.
search them here, I think they have their prices posted.

Highly Recommended!

Contacted them....polite...affordable...easy to deal with. Thanks for restoring some of my faith in the firearm community....

Hansohn Brothers hansohnbrothers.com - $35 per NFA item

Loudoun Guns - $100 per NFA item

SSG Tactical - $100 per NFA item

TW Firearms - $85 per NFA item

I look at this the same as when gunshops began charging $60 for 30 round AR magazines during the post Connecticut shooting panic. Absolute exploitation due to the limited number of SOT licensed dealers in the area. Pathetic.

Thumbs up to Hansohn Brothers.

Highly recommend Hansohn Brothers

+1 for Hansohn Brothers!

Hansohn brothers is good to deal with. They have all my business now

....and a new winner:

Blue Ridge Arsenal - $200 per transfer (no...not the stamp...that's an additional $200 per).

Six Rivers Armory in Gloucester charges $50 for NFA, and $20 for non NFA.

No. Check out Nova Firearms:

Thanks for all the great feedback!

Wow! I'm so glad I'm close to Hansohn Brothers!

I'm in Centreville and I'll do NFA transfers for $40, and non-NFA for $15.

So some shops charge a transfer fee on NFA items that you buy from them?

Sad but true. We aren't one of them.

Have done business with Hansohn Brothers for years. Do not know why anyone would go anywhere else to get Class 3 or other firearms items with transfer fees of $35 and $25 respectively. Ray and Chris have always been honest and up front. These guys truly make the paperwork process painless and are willing to provide updates with a simple call. A++++

Just bought a dead air TI from Hansohn brothers.
Have heard a lot of good things from them so hopefully the process will be painless.

Hansohn Brothers = approved solution

Another happy Hansohn Brothers customer. Can't beat them!
