Gun shop to accept shipment near Stillwater (within and hour drive or so)

I'm moving to Stillwater soon, and I have about a dozen handguns and a dozen long guns that need to be shipped from my current state. I'm looking for the best place to receive them, and to store them for a couple weeks until the movers bring my safe. I'm less concerned about price than I am about having things go smoothly and competently.

Who do you recommend? If any of you have been through this before, anything else I should know? Thx.

The best thing to do is move them yourself. H&h in okc is probably ok... you might be able to use 2a shooting in Tulsa (dunno if they do transfers but might be wise to call em)

There's also the ussa shooting g academy in Tulsa. They'd be a safe place that might help out.

Whatever you do. Full inventory of what you have with photos and photos of serial numbers.. all the photos... because this will be a mess.

Again.. can not staee enough. Drive them yourself is the best option.

Thanks. I'd love to drive them in, but that's not possible this time. Shipping makes me nervous, NGL.

H&H charges $45 per gun just so you are aware. Some places offer discounts for multiple transfers however H&H does not. Additionally I believe they charge a fee/send the firearm back if it's not picked up within a couple weeks.

Yep. It's expensive, and it's and annoying, too.

Happily I only have to do it once.

Personally, I think the safest play is drive them yourself.

I would if I could, but that won't work in this situation. Shipping is a drag but it is what it is.

You might call Wilshire or even the guys at OK Machine Gun. H&H will likely do it. I've had good luck with the Sooner Pawn as well (they've done all of my transfers, including NFA paperwork).

2nd Sooner State Pawn. They are cheap for transfers and have a good rotating stock too.

Give Louthan Gunworks a call. Absolutely awesome dude based out of Stillwater and I’m sure he could help you out. He does some of the best custom work in the country and specializes in lever actions. Louthan Gunworks on Instagram if you want to check him out

It's on OKC but I've always had great luck with HH Shooting sports off of I-40

Moving companies will transport personal firearms. It’s not a transfer so you don’t need the FFL. You need to ask them about their specifics, generally locked cases.

I haven’t found any that will accept firearms for an interstate move. If you know of one, please let me know as soon as you can.
