Thinking about getting my 07. Been doing some side work in the shop on guns and it would be nice to be able to either get receivers sent in or be able to do work without the owner staying there. Side gig, main business would be custom work, some engraving and custom suppressors (odd calibers, integral, etc).
Right now my list (as I understand it)
Zoning may be a headache, or it might not
A says they can just be a dick, C could be a problem since i don't know if a permit was pulled on my shop (existed when I moved in), G is the kicker, but my argument is the shop is there if its a business or not. I'm not adding anything that wouldn't be done already
Still need to look into insurance and what the requirements are for storage and security. I've heard that you need separate safes and I've heard that it doesn't matter and I've heard that it does but a ring system and a rigid jobbox will meet requirements.
Unless yall have some advice I think I might head down to the Business license office in town and ask.

- Check if zoning will allow it
- Register LLC
- Get EIN, Tax crap
- File ATF forms
- Interview
- Get paperwork
- Shenanigans
