Im curious what CA middleman services typically cost these days. I had a dealer in CA ask me if I knew anybody in FA that could do it because his current middleman is raising prices, something like $150 plus parts and shipping.
Every website I see that lists the service lacks pricing.

Does "middleman" refer to an Federal Firearms Licensee (FFL)?  

Does it refer to a distributor of firearms - someone in the sales chain between the end user and the manufacturer?

Yes, I mean an FFL who will take possession of a firearm in a configuration not CA compliant and then, for fee, castrate the firearm and send it to a dealer in CA.
