FFL near San Francisco...

Since Golden Gate Guns can't be bothered to answer their phone... I'm looking for somewhere to do an out of state transfer.

Jackson Arms doesn't. The place in Pacifica is full up at the moment and I think those are the only two that are sort of close.

Thanks Lowend, I'll call them tomorrow.

+1 for Imbert & Smithers. Guys know their stuff. Plus they give back to the community by donating a bunch of stuff including guns for raffle to the local SCI chapter.

Wow... got through to GGG.

What a drag that they are having such a hard time and aren't open often enough to accommodate the amount of business that they can get.

Thanks for all the suggestions!

Thank you! I found one this afternoon! He's in Martinez and was very pleasant on the phone (unlike a lot of other ones I spoke with). Does a ton of these out of state transfers and it will cost as much for four as GGG was going to charge me for one.

Of course, now I'm only doing three as one of them can not be imported to CA.
