Havent updated this post in a while. Application is at the ATF and I'm waiting on the appointment. Hopefully it will be in the next 5-6 weeks. Gotta love government wait times.
Also, I've been doing homework on wholesalers who will sell to a home based FFL. What I'm reading is that there are very few wholesellers who do business with guys like me. I will be forced to use the smaller guys at surely higher prices without a brick and mortar storefront. Some of these hurdles may be overcome by keeping stock on hand; time will tell.
Big update yall! ATF visit today went without a hitch. The agent was very patient with me, answered all one million questions I had and was very supportive of my business ambitions. It should be about 3-4 weeks and I'll have my license in hand.

Well of course! I have to get this business out of the red!
In all seriousness, I'm not doing this to make a ton of money. I genuinely enjoy talking guns and I find myself making recommendations to people all the time. This will just complete the circle and let me help those people secure the firearm(s) they were looking for.
