I’m interested in purchasing a rifle from Armalite that requires a Federal Firearms License – I am not a current gun owner (nor have I ever been, despite spending over 6 years in the Army), and looking over the FFL categories (dealer, manufacturer, importer and collector), I don’t technically fit into any of those, except collector, but the gun I want to purchase does not meet the criteria for being classified as a collectible weapon. (The weapon in question is an M15A4 carbine in .223/5.56mm.) Can anybody detail the process I would have to go through to be able to purchase this weapon from Amralite? Or would it be easier (or cheaper/sensible) to try to procure one from a gun shop? Any help at all in trying to figure this out would be appreciated.
