I'm curious if any of you gentleman know if there is a Nics fee for non point of contact states?

Is that not the prerogative of the FFL?  I don't think the FBI charges the FFL any $$$ for a NICS check, no? 

What does non point of contact state mean?

A state where the FFL's contact NICS directly, rather than go through a State's "point of contact" system...

thats my question.

Maybe Midwest knows

There is no fee charged to the FFL in direct contact states or to the POC in POC states. I believe that the NJSP set the fee to FFL's at $15. In non-POC states it is left up to the FFL and usually runs $3 - $5.

I only get background checks for 40% of my guns.

Thank you!

 

So it's federally funded, ffl just add the nuisance charge depending, in non poc states

That's nice

I was the one Hillary talks about.

NJSP sets the $15.00     Then the FFL sets his transfer fee IE guns shipped to him.   I saw 1 shop that tried to add A transfer fee to guns they sold.   Needless to say it was A new shop and I've never been back.

 

I have bought 3 shotguns at Cabelas in DE and there were no NICS fee.

Nj is a poc state.

ok, I'll give you a cookie

Nj is a pocpos state.

FIFY

I don't have to pay a fee for using NICS, nor do I charge a fee in AZ. All my transfers are $20 each. Some dealers give a break for having a CWP as no NICS is required.

Same in Texas. No NICS check for CHL/LTC carrier.

Not to hijack, but for someone who wants a non-res. Texas CHL, they need to fly to Tx. to take the course. Could the rest of it be done "remotely" or must other things be done in Texas as well (i.e. fingerprints, file the docs, pay the fees, etc etc..)?  I was thinking that if one has time only to take the course and get back on a plane, they could do the remainder of it at their home.

 

It sounds like that Jason guy down there provides door to door concierge service with the classroom part of the training over a meal. He picked up one of our guys at the airport.

thats not that bad.  i know of one shop outside of NJ that collects state sales tax on guns transferred through them.  they'll actually look up the msrp to get the number if there is no invoice.

You mean, even if they didn't buy it from that FFL?  That's kinda on the "illegal" side, ain't it????

Yes. Bought the gun directly from bcm. Don't know the legality. Do know I wouldn't have paid it

I had a sales tax certificate of authority in NJ for my business, and I currently have one in Florida. You can't collect tax for something for which you didn't collect the original payment. When you file your quarterly reports to the state, it won't work too well for you. I think that FFL is just collecting extra $$$,. I hope he gave them a receipt for the tax payment, but I doubt it if he's collecting it illegally. 

 

The problem with not paying the FFL the tax is that the FFL might not release the item to you... something for which you already paid.  So, do you want to go to the authorities and report him/her? Then you'll have to pay the tax anyway since the authorities will be aware of the transaction.  That, or blow the amt. you paid? I'd go ahead and pay the FFL the tax, but demand a receipt for it.

If the FFL refuses a receipt, then I'd go to the authorities.

We both assumed they pocketed the money. They lost a bunch of transfers after that which would have netted them more than the $175 they stole
