There's a few places that have this kind of policy. It's likely to go away as the gun industry becomes more professional and realizes that it's an odd policy and causes more problems than it fixes. |

Always a pleasant experience, and yes, no appt necessary. Example of wonderful service with a smile. And no dishonesty on his policies/website. Again, the fee is annoying, but the lying/misrepresentation on store policy is a deal breaker, as is the rude service. |

Disregarding any legitimacy to arguments about Quantico's marketing (I've never shopped there and I haven't looked at it enough) I find it absurd to be complaining about how the cost of a transfer against the overall value of the item being transferred somehow makes the cost absurd. Transfers are a fixed price, and if you want to transfer a $60 object, that is your problem, the fact you are transferring a low value item does not entitle you to whine about how the transfer cost is so how relative to the overall value of an item. Having said that, anyone in this state who transfers a lower deserves whatever cost they incur because as already mentioned 594 makes it pretty clear it isn't a gun. |

The price of a transfer doesn't vary based on the value of what is being transferred, and to bitch about the cost of a transfer relative to the value of an item being transferred is stupid, especially if it is a low value item such as the OP is worked up over. So yes, it is a fixed price, regardless of the value of the item you are transferring. |

It's the bait and switch dishonesty in advertising, and poor customer service. I've willingly paid $25+ for transfers knowing that was the price going in. However when a walk in customer has the price arbitrarily doubled that's unethical. I don't tell you how to spend your money, so please don't tell me how to spend mine. |

+1 for Brad as well. I did a transfer at Bullseye recently, and they waived the fee. I think the counter dude knew the buyer. I rewarded them by buying some .44 Mag ammo and a couple Boresnakes. |

Hahaha 594 transfers... If I were to do one I'd call the place to see if it was ok to stop by before I left the house. Just like I call before I buy a gun online to let them know I'm sending them something and to see if they are setup to deal with who I'm buying from. If you are going into a business and the person has to do more than ask if they can help you and ring you up, double check. Doing a walk in transfer at quantico usually means that half their workforce is down for 15 minutes. |
