Reputable dealers in Bel Air?

falconguy · Nov 21, 2018

Greetings all,

Can anyone suggest a reputable FFL in Bel Air for transfers? If so are they open Saturday and/or Sunday? Are they reasonable? Thanks.

I've heard good thing second hand about Top Gun in Fallston. Maryland Quartermaster might still be an FFL as well.

Cooter's is in Forest Hill. Transfers are reasonable. ($30 long guns; $40 pistols).

No to detail but he spoke out in favor of the HQL training requirement.

New management now, he's a good guy.

Ricks in Conowingo, closed Sunday and Mondays. Worth the drive IMO, regular folks, 100% reliable service. I've done a dozen or more transfers there.

My one transfer at Rick's a while back went decently.

In that order

Ditto on Ricks. A good friend of mine works there on Tuesday and Thursday. They move a good bit of product and know all the laws { so far }. Fair and honest. Seem to always have some C&R rifles in stock.

J&K Associates on 40 just in Havre de Grace. $30 for long guns and $40 for pistols. Great shop, Jacob is the guy to ask for.
Then Ricks Gun. Also reasonable. And Cooters too. The other gun shops shops mentioned are way high on their transfer fees and won’t deal them anymore.

I’ve never had a good experience there. JLowes is much better. Top gun is also good too in fallston

Curtis was one of the old school Kitchen Table FFLs. He always had the best transfer prices.
I was upset with him too when this article came out but he was also always a bit of a Fudd.

Curtis sold out to Martin who is open in a new location and I have had one flawless transfer through him. Martin also has a SilencerShop Kiosk in his store and I have thought about trying him out for class III

I would recommend him.

I've had good experiences with Charly Zink, in Perry Hall but not too far from Bel Air

Somewhat surprised to hear. I've done probably upwards of 15 transfers there and a handful of new and used purchases. Always smooth and friendly, know me by name and treat me right.

Mike Horst of Bel Air Gun Range has done several transfers & MANY consignments sales for me.
They are open 7 days a week & seem very reasonable to me.
Mike has always been 100% reliable & a man of his word.

+1 Martin has done a couple of transfers for me. Great service and a nice guy.

I would say J&K, Top Gun, Rick's, Cooter's, and Horst/McCann in that order. I was never a fan of some of Horst/McCann's employees in the past, which made me never want to return. Honestly, I would go with whichever is closer to you out of the bunch, but that's just me.

Horst/McCann is under new management and has a new name. They are a great bunch of guys in there. They have done a lot of modernizing and expanding in their shop. My dad and I shoot there all the time and actually bought a suppressor from them when Silencerco was having their crazy sales over the summer. My dad has transferred all his Glocks through them too and they've been great.

I agree 100%. Bel Air Gun Range ( formerly Horst and McCann) is fantastic. They have updated their range and their employees are all 50yr. old+ Ex-Military/LEO types and are very friendly.
I've bought numerous new weapons and have also placed some on consignment. Mike is honest and a man of his word.
