FFL's that do PPT's for $47.19

VC Defense but i think its known as Brute Dynamics now in Thousand Oaks is good to go. 47.19 for the dros and ppt. friendly staff and paper work was done quickly.
 
Turner’s Lake Forest charges for a lock. Ended up being $55.80 total. PPT by appointment only, so it helped cut down time.
 
FFL's for $47.19
Duncan's Gunworks - San Marcos
KC Tactical - Tustin
Rifle Gear - Fountain Valley
Orange County Outdoors - Costa Mesa
Turner's (but there can be a wait)
Ammo Bros (the Cerritos store took over an hour)

Extra charges
Firearms Unknown - Oceanside (buy a lock)
On Target - Laguna Niguel (buy a lock)
OC Guns - Lake Forest (credit card charge. Once I used cash and it still came out to $50)
Rifle Suppy Co. Huntington Beach
 
Did you bring a lock? I've never been charged for a lock at Turner's Lake Forest.
I didn’t. First PPT for me and assumed all original safety features included in box would’ve sufficed. Also asked if I needed to bring anything with me as the buyer when making the appointment and Turner’s associate said no. Now I know better.

Return the lock after you have carried the gun out to your car on pickup day.

All $47.19 DROS shops

Guns LA ( fast and friendly )
Riffle Supply ( long wait at times )
Shoot SoCal ( quick and easy )
Ammo Bros Cerritos ( long wait at times )
Gretas Simi Valley ( longest wait for PPT/DROS est. 45-55 minutes even when dead)
Aeon Tac Industry & Garden Grove ( fast but 3% CC fee)
2AZone ( long wait even with appt. 3% CC fee)

BEST IMHO
GUNS LA super fast PPT and DROS, friendly and charge you 0.01$ for the lock. No fees and always ask if you need anything else and actively trying to build a friendship with you.

Worst IMHO
OnTarget charges a credit card fee and a $7.99 lock fee even if you provide a lock.

🤮 Paid $58.66 for PPT
Which 2A Zone? 2A Zone Riverside is fast and will take Zelle to avoid card fees. Plus, they let you exchange cash in store, the safest option for both parties. Lots of inventory on-hand and they do SSE firearms purchases such as Atlas, Platypus, and others.
 
It's funny how many people know about this place. The first time I went I thought "NO WAY. Is my gun even going to be here in 10 days?" It's in this guy's parents garage. In the middle of my PPT his mom walks in with a sandwich and chips on a plate for him.
These guys are great. Nothing but positives in my experience and my heart would melt seeing someone's mom bring lunch in...
 
I would rather pay the 3% on $47 then the extra $60 to PPT two handguns that
2a zone in Riverside chargers. for all the good they do for the community. That’s pretty 💩ty.
 
Had this happen at a different Turner’s once and they had a no returns policy on the lock 😡
Turner's and Ammo Bros likes to play the game of Friends and Family rules others mentality. As in Friends, Family, LE, and Ex-employees gets better treatment than rest of CA.

Ammo bros santa ana did this until they have been downgraded to ammo bros westminster. Actually R66 did it to Ammobros Santa Ana lol.
 
The Arms Sommelier Munitions And More, Chino
We charge 47.19 for ppts as long as there is a OEM lock new in package. Out of state transfer we charge 60 plus taxes and fees for the transfer and include a lock in the transfer fee if you don't have one.

Manzano Munitions , I can attest to, was great. $47.19 on the dot with Zelle.

After having experienced living in a free state (NV, TX), it was nice to go to a Bay Area place where I was treated cordially.

I won’t name names but the same cannot be said for other spots I’ve gone to.

I don't know about this. I've never DROS'd more than one gun at a time. Not saying you're wrong but it's not something I've encountered or verified.
