Fees for transfers are as follows

Title I transfers (regular firearms): $20.00 for Texas CHL Holders (per firearm). NOTE: it is the policy of NFA Investments to facilitate the transfer of only ONE HANDGUN every four weeks. NFA Investments will not generally facilitate multiple handgun transfers to the same individual.

Title I transfers (regular firearms): $25.00 for Texas Non-CHL Holders (per firearm)

FFL copies will be sent by Fax or Email to your dealer at no charge. ABSOLUTELY NO FFL COPIES WILL BE PROVIDED TO ANY UNLICENSED INDIVIDUALS - INDIVIDUALS WITHOUT AN FFL. PER ATF, FFL COPIES ARE TO BE RESERVED FOR LICENSEE TO LICENSEE TRANSFERS ONLY. NFA INVESTMENTS WILL FURNISH FFL INFORMATION WHEREBY AN UNLICENSED INDIVIDUAL CAN VERIFY NFA INVESTMENTS FFL AT THE ATF'S FFL E-Z CHECK WEBSITE.

Title II Transfers (NFA, "Class 3" weapons): short barreled rifles and shotguns, silencers, and AOW's are $50.00 per weapon*; machinegun transfers are $100.00 per weapon. Fees are based on the customer picking up the paperwork at our location; there is an additional $5.00 fee if transfer paperwork is to be mailed to the customer prior to being processed. NFA INVESTMENTS CHARGES NO ADDITIONAL "PAPERWORK" FEE TO ASSIST CUSTOMERS EVEN THOUGH NUMEROUS OTHER COMPANIES DO.

Transfer fees must be received prior to my accepting any inbound Title II / NFA weapons.

Gunsmithing service fees:

Generally, gunsmithing services are billed at a rate of $75.00 per hour, with a one hour minimum. This includes engraving and repairs / customizing. Shop supplies, such as ammunition for testing and evaluating weapons, will be charged in addition to the hourly rates.

Most gunsmithing services will require your weapon(s) to be left as policy is generally not work on customers weapons while they wait unless there are extenuating circumstances such as duty weapons in the case of law enforcement officers. The exception to this is standard firearm engraving on stripped AR15 typr receivers can normally be done "while you wait." Hours of operation are by appointment only; there is no storefront where customers can stop in and "browse." Turnaround time is usually between 24 and 48 hours and may even be the same day in some cases. As this is a part-time vocation and is not my primary occupation, my schedule can be erratic. I will always try and work with you to get the work done as soon as possible.

Barrel threading: AK47 (7.62-39 ONLY) barrels are a flat $25.00 for threading in 14-1 LH metric; the threads will be suitable for flash hiders only. For weapons such as the AR15 or 10/22, dismounted (stripped) barrels are generally threaded in industry standard English threads from $65.00 for straight, untapered "bull" barrels. If the barrel needs to be removed from the action or receiver, a minimum of $100.00 will be charged (standard hand guards); exotic rail systems need to have been removed prior to sending the weapon to NFA Investments. For hard to remove barrels, such as those installed with chemical locking compounds, hourly shop rates may apply.

Engraving services: Standard engraving, such required information from Form 1 applications (Maker's name, city, and state), are generally engraved from $50.00 (ALUMINUM receivers only). Carbon steel and Stainless steel receiver engraving starts at $65.00; the increased cost is due to both the longer time it takes to engrave these hard surfaces as well as the faster wear to the engraving bits. All engraving is deep cut on a manual rotary engraving pantograph machine up to a depth of .015", normally cut approximately .012" deep. This depth allows the weapon to be refinished with a variety of finishes which could obliterate or conceal more shallow engraving (ATF only requires .003" deep, about the same as a sheet of notebook paper). Lettering is normally blackened at no charge upon customer request. The preferred method of getting customers' weapons to NFA Investments for engraving is via UPS Ground service; shipped items will normally be returned in the same manner.

Cancellations / refunds

Payment is due up-front for all work. Once a firearm has been left at / shipped to NFA Investments for service, transfer, or for purchase, there will be a non-refundable $25.00 fee for any services cancelled prior to the work being completed; if the weapons involved are NFA weapons, the non-refundable fee will increase to $65.00. These fees are necessary as it takes time to enter firearms in and out of logbooks per ATFE requirements. These fees also apply to anyone canceling a NFA weapon purchase from NFA Investments once any NFA forms have been prepared by NFA Investments for the purchaser.

On Title II transfers, a storage fee may be charged at a rate of $15.00 per month for transfers taking over 120 days from the date of receipt of the weapon by NFA Investments.
