I am a former FFL but, never an S.O.T. I now live in a more rural area and I am working with an existing FFL. His FFL is as a sole proprietor. To expand his business and build some of my own, I would like to work with feral hog hunters seeking suppressors. Our area is under served for Class 3 dealers so, transfers would be all his as well as any SBR, AOW, etc. that he might want to bring in.
Does a FAQ or similar documentation exist to let us know the current rules for legal compliance since I will not be on his license? Essentially what I would like to see happen (and the dealer is fine with this), is I pay the S.O.T. and arrange all suppressor orders and cover inventory costs. He gets a cut for storage and paperwork that requires his signature. Demos on Saturday afternoon at his range are pretty easy but, on escorted night hunt demo's I would need to 'check out' a demo can and would not return it until the next day.
How do we handle the legalities or, is this even possible under the current rules? Since I would not be a direct salaried or hourly employee of his, how does this change things (assuming a 1099 'contract employee' situation)?
TIA,
Sid
