ATF Manufacture license
When I reload for my friends and/or hunting buddies, do I need a manufacturers license? I would only charge the bare cost of the components and make no profit. Wold appreciate your input before I stick my neck out and ask ATF. Thanks for any insight. Ken

Ever hear of don't ask, don't tell? I load for lots of my friends and never even looked into it.
The other way I look at it... It is easier to get forgiveness than permission. This also works well with wives.0 -
Thanks, guys. Now, how do I delete this topic and go back to being normal ?? I can't find a trash can icon to click. 0 -

$35 bucks for a ammunition manufacture licensce. I actualy have thought about it a few times.0 -
Actually.........$30.00. but don't hold your breath waiting for ATF to process the app--I've been waiting two months so far. 0 -

If they havent called you you may want to give them a buzz see if they even recieved it. I had to do this for my C&R they misplaced it.0 -
Actually my app is for manufacturing ammo plus a regular class one dealer's license. An ammo manufacturing license might be quicker, so don't let me discourage you. Still, I probably should call them to make sure the process hasn't stalled somehow--good idea, Thanks. 0 -
Actually as long as you are only supplying the time and labor, ( and your equipment ), there is no problem. Let your Buddies supply all of the componants, i.e. brass, primers, powder and bullets. The only investment you will have to eat is your time.

The other thing to think about..if one of your buddies rams his gun barrel into the dirt and then fires that rifle..he or his widow will probably sue you. 0 -
Yeah HB, I thought about that too! I'd be more reluctant to sell reloads as an individual. I incorporated an LLC (Limited Liability Company)so that this would be the entity to sue. My understanding is that they could only sue for the entire value of the company, rather than going after my personal assets. I'm not a lawyer so if anyone knows this to be innaccurate, please don't hesitate to speak up[:D][:D] 0
