What's the process? Do i call ahead and let them know? I'm going to the Valley Forge this weekend and I'm watching a sale on Gunbroker.com so I would like to know how I do this if I purchase a handgun at either.

Yes, call or email ahead to make sure they will accept.

 

The receiving FFL has to mail or fax a copy of the their license to the sending FFL, so you will need their information.

 

Once the sender gets a copy and your money, they will send the gun. Then the receiver processes it as normal (forms/permits, NICS call.. fee), and then gives you your pistol.

 

Some FFL's will not accept guns from individual sellers, so make sure what your receiving FFL is cool with. If the guy on gunbroker is an individual without a license, and your receiving FFL will not accept, it could add some significant money to the price if you have to pay for two transfers.

 

Some FFL's wont accept any transfers at all.

Ok. Luckly the gunbroker item I'm looking at is from a dealer. I'm also hoping Vinny can do the transfers so I'll ask him.
