Buying Shotgun Out of State
« on: January 19, 2010, 08:28:57 AM »
I am in the market for a hunting shotgun for my fiance and after searching around locally (Kentucky) i found a gun shop that will give me a great deal but they have to order it. My question is their any issues with buying a shotgun in a different state?

They are going to charge you a transfer fee..so I always just go with the cheapest option that close to where I live.

Some shops wont do it or will charge and arm and a leg if they carry the type firearm that you are trying to transfer..

$25-30 is a fair price to pay for a transfer. some people gouge and charge $50, if thats the case i would keep looking.

I think you are asking if there are any legal issues with purchasing a shotgun in Kentuck even though your a Washington State Resident?  No no issues, you just have to follow Kentuck's firearms laws until you move back to WA.  Purchasing a firearm out of state is just like buying anything else.

I just left my dealer that I have bought MANY guns from. he told me to get the one I am waiting for now shipped to one of my idaho dealers as he is now required to charge sales tax on transfers. I doubt he was BS'n as it was money out of his pocket......fyi
