FFL transfers in Columbia, asked and answered
How much does an FFL transfer cost in Columbia?
Most Columbia dealers have never published a rate, so there is no honest average yet. Transfers in South Carolina typically run $25 to $50. The list above shows every dealer whose fee we do know.
Which Columbia FFL is cheapest?
Of the Columbia dealers with a fee on record, Sportsman's Warehouse 155 is the lowest at $50. That is the cheapest known, not the cheapest that exists: 28 dealers here have no number on file at all.
How many gun dealers are there in Columbia?
35 licensed dealers hold a current federal firearms licence at an address in Columbia, against 32 in January 2021.
Can a gun be shipped to my house in South Carolina?
No. A firearm bought online ships to a licensed dealer, who runs the Form 4473 and the background check before handing it over. The transfer fee on this page is what that dealer charges for doing it.
Listings come from the ATF August 2026 Federal Firearms Licensee list and exclude licensees operating from a residence. A licence is not an endorsement and licensees are not required to accept transfers from third parties. Fees are reported by buyers, change without notice, and are not a quote.
