I had someone else on the Board refer me to him earlier. I have left a few voicemails over the last couple of days, but have not heard back.

Try Capra's on 65 in Blaine. They are nice people and easy to deal with. Ask for Jerry.

Jerry has always been great. Anyone know maybe he is out of town?

Lincoln Pawn & Jewlery, 84 and Central, across from Harley store. I did a transfer there a month or more ago for $20. I think, however, they charge $20 for up to two guns being tranferred at the same time, if you're fortunate enough to have that problem. Have to double check with them. If you have a gun shipped to them from a non-ffl, they require a copy of the non-ffl's driver's license to be included in the package. Says it's a requirement due to their being a pawn shop. He said sometimes out of state sellers refuse to send copy of their license, so you need to work that out with the seller ahead of time just in case.

I spoke to Jerry Helm a couple weeks ago. Wanted to touch base with him before I used him. Was curious whether he accepts shipments in from out of state non-ffls. He said he does. Did not say he needs drivers license copy. I called when he was eating dinner though, so he got me off the phone pretty quickly. I wasn't sure he understood what I was actually asking for clarification on. Nonetheless, I'm going to try to use him next time I buy outside MN.

Remember its spring break time, and lots of parents of school age kids are out of town.

Yeah... But I think Jerry's kids were out of school 30 years ago.
