These are based on <30 miles from 78201. The links are not functional, but I think you can find some cheap transfers among these.

Davidson Firearms is a Class III dealership in all kinds of firearms, including pistols, revolvers, semi-auto weapons, assault weapons, machine guns, silencers,and other specialized weapons. We are not a "stocking" dealer and stock only a small number of concealed handguns that tend to be rather "popular." We serve both the general public and law enforcement community. Accessories are also either carried or can be ordered. Most firearms orders can take anywhere from five to fourteen days to complete, excluding Class III items. We also are trained experts in surveillance and anti-surveillance (TSCM)and can provide these services on a specialized case by case basis. We offer fully licensed investigative resources, and do background checks. We can provide armed escorts and security. Most firearms, accessories, and other security or unique and hard to find items are chosen by you for your needs, then payment is made, and then the item or items are ordered. You are notified when they arrive and we can provide full paperwork services on any Class III orders or transfers. Expect friendly, personal, and professional service.

If you look in the Market place sub forum here there is a section for FFL's. You will be able to find someone there. Or you can go to www.gunbroker.com and they have an FFL finder there as well. Anyone charging $50 should not get you business ever. And if you are on this board I'm going to make an assumption, yes yes i know what they say about assumptions, you have a CHL, which makes the Transfer even easier on the FFL.
I would never pay more than $25 for a transfer. Any more is not worth it. I'd rather give a guy $25 for the transfer and spend an extra $25 in gas just on principle of doing business with someone that's not out to bend me over.

I wouldn't pay more than $20 unless the FFL was less than 5 miles from my house or work. It's easy money for the FFL. Hand you the form. Take care of other customers while you fill it out. Check the form and compare to your license. Hand you the gun. Make an entry in his bound book. Five minutes of work tops.

+1 on Mr.Scott and Tarkus. I won't do business with anyone that charges over $25, or with anyone that charges sales tax. In a metropolitan area such as San Antonia that shouldn't to too hard to find. I use Gunbroker's FFL locator, like some here have suggested.
