Below are a list of a few emails and responses I have sent to common questions over the several months. Remember,unlike my competition,once you purchase my guide... I am a LIVE resource you can email anytime with an FFL related question,more than worth the price of the guide! Thanks,Brandon Home Based FFL Licensed Dealer.

After carefully reviewing your information I have found that it is more than worth the money. It is stepping me through the process without the insecurity of not knowing what I am doing or the next step. I can also foresee advantages in the future of having a resource to turn to if I have in questions. What are your insights on gunshows? Thanks again,Rob
Fee for gun shows is low,usually $20 to $25 per weekend for a 6 to 8 foot tablet. For me as a Class 3 FFL dealer,they are great; I never sell many silencers at a show,but get a ton of calls almost every week afterwards. Silencers are great because I collect the money,then order the product and then process the paperwork. Yes,email anytime with questions!

Finally sending my application to the ATF tomorrow. I have been looking at wholesalers and it seems like it will be difficult to find any that will deal with home or web based FFLs. Any suggestions on where to start when I get my FFL? Your site is very helpful and easy to use. Thanks. |
Frank - Did you see my pagesin the guide specifically on wholesalers? I use XXXXXX and I am home based. Thanks for the feedback! I see the tips on applying for FFL wholesalers AS IMPORTANT as the FFL License Guide. NONE of my competitors even cover this MOST IMPORTANT area.

Hello,I live in Kansas,can you get an ffl in ks without a storefront? i was told no! and also if i do get home ffl,can it be transferred in the future? like if i got a building for a store!! and you can't sale guns on eBay can you? |
Tim - Yes,the FFL is a federal license and the same in each state. KS would be an excellent state to start a firearms business. Yes,you must give the ATF 30 advanced notice before you change the address,address change is easy.
Hello! brandon,can i go ahead and order the guide and have access to the web site and look things over really good and then submit the application when i'm ready!!? being a firearms dealer is one of life long ambitions,living in a perfect world I would love to have a gun shop,pawnshop combo!! but leaning more on the guns!! soi've been looking for the perfect location! but i would like to go ahead and get the FFL and then have it transferred to a business! and that presents another question! can i get and retain an FFL and just kind of sit on it with not many sales at first? is there a minimum of activity that my FFL has to produce?
Tim - Sure,you can sit on it as long as you want. The only problem with setting up in your name and then putting in a business is that you have to do an entire new application. You can get the guide and review as long as you want,I update almost every day. I can extend your membership as long as you want. My guide will tell you how to setup the business as well! Let me know if I can help!
HEY BRANDON!! tim here again,I have a few more questions! #1 do we send the $200 with application? Yes,they take credit card also and if turned down do they send our money back? YES,from them & me #2 can we use home FFL like to go and set up tables at gun shows?YES we are not limited to our home and the Internet are we? Yes,kinda,all sales must be picked up at your "business" address or mailed to another FFL dealer for out of state #3 and if i go ahead and sole proprietorship will i be grandfathered in if this administration takes our rights when i go to move it to a business name? Not sure,they can never take the right away to sell gunsand whats your take on that issue? Obama has too much stuff already on his plate to mess with guns. I been reading some of the propaganda from other ffl sites! youcant blame a guy for doing his home worklol!! andi'm pretty sure yours looks good to me! but this is forever for me and i want to do the right things! I bought all my competitors,so I KNOW I am the best! Have a good evening!

Andrew - I must admit,I do not know as much about the C&R,probably should research it more. My take on it is that the C&R is the same amount of paperwork,more restrictive on what you can buy,and not much cheaper. I have always just advised everyone to get an FFL over a C&R License. What do you see as the down side of getting an FFL over the C&R? C&R is $30 every 3 years and FFL is $90 every 3 years.

I'm very interested in obtaining my FFL. I am considering starting my own business. Which license would I need to qualify for? I believe it to be the class 7? However you have it labeled something different. I'm thirty years old and currently a school teacher. I have numerous rifles for hunting,but I have little knowledge in the licensing requirements. Also,being from NY,there seems to be a lot of restrictions in this state. |
Roger - To sell guns you will need an FFL License obviously as you know. On the application you will select XXXX,the XXXX is for FFL manufacturer,which I doubt you need. I have an FFL 01 & FFL 07 and a Class 3 FFL License. Class 3 goes on top of the FFL and allows you to sell silencers & machine guns. Probably the plain FFL Guide is what you need in NY,most Class 3 items are illegal to sell in NY. Thanks for the question & let me know how I can help you sir!

The machines guns are obviously illegal to make new ones,so often you are a middle man... guy wants one and he has you do the transfers for him. What state are you in? I like silencers because the margins are MUCH higher and the competition is close to none...

Hello,Thanks for the great service. My question is, is it possible to get the FFL here in San Mateo,California? I'm 20 minutes south of San Francisco. Technically,I don't really want to sell guns,but I would like to buy them at reduced prices from my home. Who knows maybe one day I could be a dealer but my other professional job is time consuming - IT Field. Reading the info about the FFL is that you MUST BE a dealer to get it. I don't want to mislead the ATF and then have a red flag on me for future purchases. Thanks for the reply. Sincerely,H |
Hermon - They do really frown on getting an FFL License for personal usage. Would you be able to sell to friends? Sell to Relatives? Sell maybe a few each year on Gunbroker.com? If yes,then you are fine. They don't make you prove you will make a profit,but they only approve your FFL License if you plan to sell guns as a "dealer". The license is a federal license and all the states are the same. Unless you have some obscure local law against selling guns in San Mateo... you should be fine. I think we all start at Technically,I don't really want to sell guns,but I would like to buy them at reduced prices from my home. Then after time we see it as an opportunity to meet new people and sell where we never thought possible.

Jan- The meeting will be at the address where you plan to obtain the FFL License. I met with them early one morning for a couple hours at my kitchen table,laid back meeting to discuss the laws governing sell of firearms,no need to be nervous. They are ATF,dressed like a police officer,nothing bad. They are just making sure you are familiar with the federal laws governing firearms. I lived in Westfield,NJ for a while,I like NJ! My guide will prepare you for the meeting,you will be better prepared to ask more informed questions and you will be glad you bought my guide!
Thank you for your quick response. Is it advisable to get this license if you want to mainly enjoy shooting at a reduce cost by buying at dealers prices? Or is it not worth it unless a person plans to sell and transfer firearms for others?. At today's prices ,which have gone up tremendously for ammo and firearms,I'm looking for a way to lower my costs and shoot at targets more!.Selling and transfering firearms just isn't in the ballpark for me I may just buy your program to advance my knowledge of the business. What do you think?
Honestly... I got an FFL License to do what you noted below,but after I got it... I started transferring for friends,relatives,etc. I now love it! Up to you. Have you read my free report?

They will let you change it during their actual visit. The background check is done on you and that is the only thing that holds it back. Call them and ask them before they come,easier to fix now than later. I assume you will have to send another copy to the local sheriff as well. If you change it later,yes an entire NEW application.... Good luck Gary,proud of you sir!

FFL license at a residence |

I have a question that I am getting conflicting answers to. I am interested in ordering your program for a simple FFL license and maybe class III later. I am seeing wording on "kitchen table" dealers where they specifically say the ATF does not allow you to apply at with a residence address,it has to be an actual storefront with rent and utilities. Is this true?? I do not want the expense of a storefront and really do not plan to sell to the public other than to friends or family. I mainly want the FFL for myself,the ease of shipping a gun to the house and the benefits of wholesale pricing for myself. Thanks for any help you can give me to clear up that wording before I spend the $,I live in TX. |
David - Thanks for the questions! I have my FFL & Class 3 from my house address. Attached is proof. That is what my guides do; ensure you get approved for a home FFL license. Look forward to working with you! I get more sales from TX than any other state. Thanks!
Thanks for the info,I feel better now that I saw your actual FFL license. I will be ordering your course this week. I do have one more question.

| Message: |
If I order the 2 books today how long does the paperwork take to fill out and file with the ATF? How long is the entire process take and at what total cost? I have CC permit in GA. What is the cost of the FFL license? What is the cost of a class 3 license? You state this can be run from a home address. Absolute 100% about the home address? Thanks for your quick reply. |

Ron -If I order the 2 books today how long does the paperwork take to fill out and file with the ATF?
- You have to order the fingerprint cards and ATF application from ATF (application has four copies,front to back,yellow paper - not practical to download and print yourself),I give you their direct number,takes a week for the items to arrive. Several forms you need to request from them,I tell you which ones
- Paperwork takes maybe 30 to 45 minutes to complete,I did one the other night to get a new FFL for a business I am buying,write the same thing 4 times
- Get passport pictures taken
How long is the entire process take and at what total cost?
- See FAQ on website,could take 6 weeks,but more likely 8 to 10 to be honest,does depend how far away you are from your regional ATF office. They legally have 60 days to respond to your request.
You state this can be run from a home address. Absolute 650 about the home address? Thanks for your quick reply.
- • YES,I have mine at home,attached proof. Unless a local law forbids it,which is rare in most areas. I have 650 guarantees,never have paid out,but if you are the first,I am fine with that sir!I am here to help!

That's fine!
Hi Brandon,I live in California and wonder if you have had any customers that have used your system to get there FFL and Class 3 in California. With the strict gun laws we have in this state,I don't know if a class 3 license can even be used here. Another thing that concerns me is that I would like to get my FFL at my home address,but wonder how you keep your address safe from wrong-doers. Can a PO Box be used as a public address,but then have other FFL's send to my home. How would this work? Any help will be appreciated. If I can figure these issues out,I look forward to using your system. Thanks,David XXXXX
David -I agree with you on the Class 3,some states let Class 3's have tons of freedom... but probably not worth the annual fee for a few additional freedoms in CA. The home address is fine,the ATF never publically releases your FFL address,no one would know. Have to use a physical address,cannot use a POB unfortunately. The address is where the gun inventory is accounted for and maintained. I have tons of customers from CA,honestly I don't get as much feedback after they apply than I do before they apply. It is a Federal License,unless your city has a law against it,you are fine believe it or not if you follow my guide specifically. ATF and I will refund you money if you are denied. I have never had anyone denied... my guide is good! I work so closely with people and their situations,I have learned SOOOOO MUCH!

Dealer physical location/address |
| Message: |
Good Evening: I looked into getting my FFL years ago and stopped when it became my understanding that the city I live in will not allow a license to be granted or the licensee to operate a gun business from a residence (residential address) within the city limits. Can you check this out and let me know,either way,if you can guarantee me getting my license and being able to work a gun business (and hold a Class 3) from my home? Thank you. |
Remember it is a Federal License,so they would have had to gone to a lot of trouble on a local level to outlaw it. I have never seen a city I could not help someone get their FFL in,this might be the first. If you are denied the ATF & I will refund you money,up to you sir! I was told it was impossible too,but my guide follows all the federal laws and assures you quick and easy approval. I can also guarantee you that you will run a better business,because I give you my business insights free!

Being a Gun Dealer |
| Message: |
Hey Brandon,I am interested in getting my FFL but had a question. I want to mainly purchase my own firearms and don't think I will be selling that many. Do I have to be a dealer or will this affect my license? I appreciate your time and any insight you may have on this. Thanks! -Jason |
Jason - As long as you plan to do transfers for other people. They will deny you if you plan to only buy for yourself. Subscribe to my FREE REPORT,I give insights there as well.

Can a civilian get a class 3 license to have or possess a fully automatic firearm and or silencers? |
Class 3 license if mainly for selling NFA items,but obvious as a dealer of these items you get free reign with purchasing them. Hope that helps!

A little scared to try |
| Message: |
Naturally I'm not sure what to think. I want to start a business where i sell firearms. But there are a lot of kits out there just like this one. But I'm afraid to try any. Even your site make me skeptical,I viewed the gun broker feedback,with only 10 feedback since 2004. Which leads to questions like why would you get your FFL but not sell more than 10 guns? And since it is against the rules to sell guns on E-bay why would being an E-bay power seller matter? I also viewed this feedback,and it's all items that have nothing to do with firearms. And last,if I buy your product and I do not qualify for an FFL for whatever reason do I still get my money back? |
Dale -Most of my FFL sales are silencers,so only within the state of SD per the federal laws and not on Gunbroker. E-bay feedback shows I have a track record of honesty,262 positive feedbacks since 1998 and ALL of them positive is somewhat UNHEARD of my friend. I am an expert at pleasing customers by exceeding expectation and following through if an issue arises. Yes,if you get rejected,I will give you your money back. I was a little scared in the beginning as well,just jump in... I make it easy! My guide rocks and I maintain and update daily! You will not find a better resource for getting your FFL License than me sir!

Moving state to state |
| Message: |
Hello,I purchased your guide (amazing!) and I have a question. If I were to get my FFL and class 3,would I be able to move back to California and maintain them? I eventually want to move back there,and they only allow class 3 dealers to own suppressors and SBRs. I REALLY don't want to give mine up. So,is there a way to keep my status as a FFL/SOT and move back to CA? Thanks for your help. |
YES,ATF asks for a 30 days notice. The inspector will check location out and make sure you are not in violation of any local laws,but yes very easy to move the address though. Glad you are enjoying sir!

FFL License Question. |

Hello In your presentation you state that you can have a FFL out of your home. Does this vary by states? I have several friends in the business and they all stated that you must have a store front. Maybe it's a new law? I'm in FLorida. Any advice |
Joe- It is a Federal License and thus the same in every state. I have my at home,proof attached... I tell you how to complete the application to get at home! Money back if it does not work. I have dealt with Tallahassee,no state laws outlawing it being from your home in FL. As long as you meet the Federal Requirements,my guide will get you an FFL period!

With all of the strife going on,is it worth working for a FFL mainly for ourselves? |
Winston - What strife. I really enjoy mine,I do transfers for all my friends,has been great for me! I have met so many neat people,really grown my world!
There is no requirement on number needed to sell per year. I do transfers for buddies and you will have no problem getting transfers. They don't watch that like you would think. Transfers are only good for 24 hrs and then dumped from the database.

hi my name is XXXXXX, can you let me know ATF allow i use P.O.BOX for my mailing address and delivery... |

No,unfortunately you need a physical address for tracking your firearms inventory. Hope that help! |

| Question- |
Gunsmithing Requirement? Looking to save money on transfers, pick up some wholesale guns for myself and friends, and maybe make a few bucks with a web site. I have tried to get some info off of the ATF site but every link is no longer active??? Before I invest time and $, will I be able to get a home based business going? Is there an instructor, gunsmithingrequirement? How does your program address these issues? Thanks for your time. |
| Answer - |
Richard -Thanks for your question sir!I have a home FFL and I am an expert at helping others get their FFL License. My guide covers EVERY step and is guaranteed. My competitor talks about a gunsmithing requirement because he also sells a gunsmithing guide,go figure. No,there is NO requirement to be a gunsmith. My guide addresses all issues; you have no reason to worry!
