Hmmm, so your saying to ship a gun is hard work, and an FFL holder should get paid a premium salary for his hard work? It takes a total of, maybe, 20 min. to package and ship a gun. These people charging $35 are making $27.30 per 20 min. THAT'S $81.90 PER HOUR!!!! The profit margin on shipping/receiving guns should not be more than the profit margin on the gun itself. Even if it does cost $15 in material (stop packing with 24k gold tissue paper) you still make equal to $36.90 per hour for your services. One more thing........what is up with people charging outrageous prices for receiving that, literally, takes 3 minutes!!!! My local FFL charges me $7.70 for shipping and $10.00 for receiving. He is in the business for the love of the sport, the desire to protect the 2nd amendment, and to protect our nation, NOT for the love of money, nor is he absorbed by one's own greed.
