7 months and 6 days after sending out the application, but what the hey, IT'S HERE![:D][:D][8D]
I bought me a new vaquero (stainless/ivory) to celebrate.[:D]
I'd be very grateful for any advice other FFL's could offer on getting started, turning a profit without going broke building a huge inventory, etc.

I am...my house and a storage unit, in a commercially zoned area. My biggest problem is not having much capital to work with.[:)]

If the people have become so apathetic that they will not vote out all the liberal scum (republican and democrat alike), the only solution is Constitutional Convention II the sequel. Let's get it right this time.

I didn't think I was going to get it because there's a soccer mom in the zoning office that refused to give me a letter stating that it was OK to run a retail establishment in the rural/agricultural zone I live in. The BATFE inspector said I needed such a letter but I couldn't get it so I just waited her out. I'm going to have to try real hard not to gloat when I go back to the zoning office to apply for a signage permit so I can hang my sign in front of my house. [}:)][:D][;)] This woman was red-in-the-face angry about me even asking for such a letter. Very sad.

Special orders for the odd ball guns that most storefronts won't stock can be a great source of sales (and profits) for you and I also suggest that you look into LE sales. Cops are cheap[B)] but they buy lots of guns and if treated right will tell their other cop buddies and you will soon be making plenty of sales and making important friends in the LE community. This can pay off handsomely if you want to expand into items like machineguns or other NFA items which mandate the need of police demonstration letters. This allows you to have lots of nice toys sitting around and of course in order to perform demos you need to practice with your inventory and you simply MUST drag out and fire those M16s, G3s or MP5s to remain in top form!

So I guess what I'm telling you is be careful of the politics and pissing off the wrong person.
Good luck friend.
