Reason for Application
gun nut:
Thank you all. I think I will call the ATF and get the kit to get my FFL also.
Sigarms12:
Its about @@@@ time slacker
fdegree:
What is involved with getting and maintaining a FFL?
Is it worth it if you don't plan to run a business with it?
Just wondering...I've thought about it, but don't know enough to make an intelligent decision.

I agree 100% with taking the class, background / criminal check, newspaper, BUT, the reason should not matter as you have the right to bear arms.

One note of caution: over-exaggerating your work-related need may cause some problems, as the State may (read that as “probably will”) contact your employer to verify that need. And that’s fine, if that’s the real reason – or you want your employer all-up-in-yo-bizness. Another downside could be that you get a restricted license – with some type of limitation that would allow you only to carry for work-related activities.

Fdegree, To get your FFL the ATF requires you to have a store front in order to get it, however my understanding is that if you are a certified gun smith you do not need a store front. I think the big thing they are looking for is that you turn a profit.
