What is the process for a firearms license?
"Always do right. This will gratify some people and astonish the rest."~M.Twain~Tags: None -
Please clarify what you mean by "Firearms License". Do you mean a Federal Firearms License to sell/distribute/manufacture/import firearms or do you mean a license to be able to own and purchase a firearm?"Can our form of government, our system of justice, survive if one can be denied a freedom because he might abuse it?" --Harlon Carter
"A government big enough to give you everything you want is a government big enough to take from you everything you have." --Gerald Ford
"Government is essentially the negation of liberty." --Ludwig von Mises

There are many flavors of FFL. Each one is described here. Each has different requirements for acquisition, and different fees.

Thats one thing it seems there good at
I looked into it a while back and submitted a request for the forms
3 days later I had a packet from them"I would rather be exposed to the inconveniences attending too much liberty than to those attending too small a degree of it." - Thomas JeffersonComment

From what I gather, they are not giving licenses to home-based FFLs anymore. I believe also that you have to have a minimum amount of transfers per year/quarter, or something to maintain it. If you're only buying and keeping firearms ..and not transacting on behalf of others (aka. running an actual business), you can lose it. This from a FFL friend of mine.Fleeing the PRK on 3/8/09!!Comment

The real problem is that they're (properly) enforcing the local regulation aspect - that's been the policy all the time, but under a Prior Administration the ATF began to not renew licenses where the holders did not have a properly zoned 'store front' location and all the local business licenses.From what I gather, they are not giving licenses to home-based FFLs anymore.

IIRC, that reduced the number of FFLs by about 2/3 over a few years. Ah, here we go - ATF Fact Sheet from June 2008 (PDF).ARCHIVED Calguns Foundation Wiki here: http://web.archive.org/web/201908310...itle=Main_Page
Frozen in 2015, it is falling out of date and I can no longer edit the content. But much of it is still good!Comment

Yes, they will pull it if you are not a "serious" business.From what I gather, they are not giving licenses to home-based FFLs anymore. I believe also that you have to have a minimum amount of transfers per year/quarter, or something to maintain it. If you're only buying and keeping firearms ..and not transacting on behalf of others (aka. running an actual business), you can lose it. This from a FFL friend of mine.
I have a friend lost his due to no activity for 18 months, this happened in 2002.sigpic
Thieves are the lowest form of life out there, except for liberal politicians, of course, but that's redundant.Comment

I am currently in the middle of the process. It is a pretty intimidating task once you take into effect local permits and such. Find out who your local code enforcement person is and ask them for your local info. They are the quickest and usually most correct source of info.
