So...
Based on these articles, a normal shooting Texan, would almost have to become a FFL.
Sold more than a couple of guns within a year. (Just thinning the herd, a few years ago.)
Helping with some family guns that need to be distributed by the executor. (I am helping.)
Don't normally sell guns to dealers. (Dealers are where you go to buy them.)
For research:
I went to the BATFE web site and found:
https://www.atf.gov/firearms/apply-license
and the actual form:
https://www.atf.gov/file/61506/download
$150 for a 3 year license fee.
$100 estimated cost for finger prints, passport photos, etc
Then I got to this question on the form:
Well YES!19. Do You Intend to Use Your License Only to Acquire Personal
Firearms?
Yes (If yes, do not submit application.) No
I only am interested in using the FFL to acquire more personal firearms. But, I may need to thin the herd someday.
I think if I had a FFL, I might be able to complete the "One Gun a month challenge" for at least a year.
Maybe the Big O plans to change the form, as well.
Seems like a lot of hooey.
