Homebased FFL’s

Curious as to people’s feelings and experiences on home based FFL’s? Good experiences, bad. What could have made experiences better. Any reservations in why those that have never contacted one as to why you haven’t?

If I’m going to be doing government paperwork I want a business with a track record of success. I’ve dealt with one home-based FFL and it was a clown show compared to going to a store.

The firearms industry attracts people who are more interested in playing with guns and stroking their ego over running a business.

Stores are defiantly hit or miss. Especially the old fuddy types. Love overhearing conversations where the guy has absolutely no idea what he’s talking about.

Best gunshop around in my opinion is Northeast Munitions in Merrimack.

I'd rather use a home based FFL.

Nearest gun shop charged me 50 bucks for a transfer. I got it he has to keep the lights on and I greatly appreciate him getting his license and proving a service, but I'm not doing that again. I'll still buy new/used stuff from his shop, but no more transfers.

Home based peeps I used in Alaska and Texas were 10-25 dollars, but they were mostly just gun guys who liked furthering the hobby.
