This irks me to no end when I want to have someone receive a transfer for me. I've argued with gun dealers before who SWORE that it had to come from another FFL and invariably they just get mad and don't want to have anything else to do with me. It's BS and it can often increase your cost to ship fairly drastically.
I DO think a lot of dealers just don't know the law. It's very clear what the law is on the ATF website and Texas has no other laws regarding such. If a texas FFL dealer says the law requires that it must come from an FFL then he's either misinformed or lying.
I've heard of ATF agents actually telling gun store owners that it must come from another FFL but that is clearly a contradiction of the stated law. That irks me even more because these guys should know the law more than anyone...certainly more than me!
