    Look into it; there is a lot of work but pretty steady business as long as there are fears of guns being taken away.

    I'm sorry; was the store out of Androids? :D

    ^^^THIS!

    I said the same thing to my wife when we saw it on the news. People (especially the media) point to movies and video games as the culprit. If the media didn't broadcast this as widely and frequently as they do, other people wouldn't get the same idea. It's been over 24 hours, and I'm still hearing about it in the news. I wonder who's next.

    Get the FFL if you can; there will always be a need for that kind of business as long as it is legal. The problem will be getting the word out. People tend to go to gun stores to buy guns. If you do not have a brick and mortar store you are already at a a large disadvantage. This all depends on how much of your income you are looking to make this business though.

    I'm not 100% sure what exactly he does.

    As far as being worth it, he's a LEO so I'm sure he has a good network for gaining customers.

    I just took my Week 7/Pre Final exam in my Statistics class. I'm pretty sure that was the first time I have seen over half of those equations or questions.

    Oh that sucks.

    On a better note, I passed my Managerial Accounting class with my Chinese Professor with a C and got a 3.40 for the semester :woot:

    You are aware that the minimum age to get an FFL is 21 right?

    I just see your info says you're are 18...unless you just lie about your age. :D
