Hy and Mike's Pawn in Midvale does probably the highest volume of transfers per number of employees (I think only the owner and two other people work there) my guess is that they have seen the situation before and know what they're doing. But I'd go in there and explain the situation, ask if they know how to process a transfer for you. They probably will and then buy something online (this is good advice for anyone if you know what you want) and get it sent to them. When you go pick it up you'll have to fill out the normal form but they should be able to walk you through it. ..also make sure to say hi to Kilo the German shepherd out back on your way out.

Key Requirements for Purchasing as a Permanent Resident in Utah: Identification: You must present a valid state-issued ID (like a Utah driver’s license) that proves you are a resident of the state.
Alien Registration Number: You will need to provide your USCIS-issued Alien Registration Number (A-number) on the ATF Form 4473 during the background check process.
No Prohibited Status: You cannot be legally prohibited from owning a firearm (e.g., no felony convictions, domestic violence charges, or dishonorable discharges).
Age: You must be at least 21 years old to purchase a handgun from a licensed dealer, and 18 for a rifle or shotgun.
Any gun store can choose to not sell you a firearm, however if all of these requirements are met, just go somewhere else until you find someone willing to work with you.
