This has probably been asked before, how do you find a good FFL shop? Do you just call around and ask how much they charge for the service? What's a good price? Is it percentage of the value of the firearm? I saw some good deals over the weekend but was turned off because of the FFL thing.
I've only ever seen a flat fee for FFL transfer, although what that fee is varies from area to area. Usually $10-20, but I've read some people whose nearest FFL charges $50.
A lot of sites will have a built-in FFL finder, or there's a few dedicated sites. I usually use Gunbroker's because it shows the fee, but idk how complete it is.
Usually the FFL and seller will coordinate everything after you order, but some places want you to call or email and coordinate it yourself.
If you order from a big-box store you can often have the gun shipped to one of their locations and avoid an FFL fee.
