Unfortunately, living in Illinois, I need to have an FFL dealer do the paperwork for the air rifle I want to purchase. So far I have heard $75 and $65. Is this a reasonable fee? It seems high to me but I thought I’d ask.
$20-25 for each 4473. You will find some shit heads will charge that per item despite going on the same 4473. I would imagine an FFL that does a steady flow of transfers has a decent flow of supplemental income.
I've paid as much as $50 at other places (regular LGS's mostly) but there's a pawn shop a mile from my house that charges $25. A friend of mine now has an FFL and he'd probably do it for me for the price of the state BGC ($10). I'd say anywhere between $20 and $35 is "reasonable".

My local FFL charges $35 and does shipping to another FFL (if you sell a gun) for $50 which I think is reasonable, he will take it and pack it, insure it and do the paperwork for that price.

I charge $25 for transfers. Many sellers in other states that don't know Il law will send you an air rifle to your house! Many other states do not classify air guns as firearms only retarded Illinois.
