ATF can help you out, and you can find it on the web by going to http://www.atf.treas.gov/, and they can tell you everything you need to know.. but, I can tell you, right up front, the licenses are now $300…
The crooks made it harder for us to obtain them.
Go to US gov website and find ATF (Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms. You can get all the info there.
Pick up a copy of "Shotgun News"..there’s at least fifty places in each issue that will tell you just how to get your FFL.
Go to the ATF website all the information and forms are there

This is a great source of information to help you through the red tape but the site does have some propaganda too.

If you are buying a firearm for yourself then you may not need a license. The only regulation in place that I can see is this :
B. UNLICENSED PERSONS
(B2) From whom may an unlicensed person acquire a firearm under the GCA? [Back]
A person may only acquire a firearm within the person’s own State, except that he or she may purchase or otherwise acquire a rifle or shotgun, in person, at a licensee’s premises in any State, provided the sale complies with State laws applicable in the State of sale and the State where the purchaser resides. A person may borrow or rent a firearm in any State for temporary use for lawful sporting purposes.
To carry it around:
(A2) Does the Federal Government issue a license or permit to carry a concealed weapon? [Back]
No. Neither ATF nor any other Federal agency issues such a permit or license. Carrying permits may be issued by a State or local government.

Has not willfully failed to disclose material information or willfully made false statements concerning material facts in connection with his application;

The applicant certifies that:
the business to be conducted under the license is not prohibited by State or local law in the place where the licensed premises is located;

secure gun storage or safety devices will be available at any place in which firearms are sold under the license to persons who are not licensees (“secure gun storage or safety device” is defined in 18 U.S.C. 921(a)(34)).
