I tried to read all the posts, so If I missed it, please just point me in the right direction.

Ok, I'm getting ready to send off my C&R application. My question is :

Do I add my wife to the responsible persons portion?

The reason is purely in the event of my death ( I'm just 35 but I'm a plan ahead guy ).

In my eyes, the C&R would die with me and the guns would just be hers to do what she wants with. Just verifying that before mailing.

Thanks for all the help.

No. There would be no reason for a run-of-the-mill C&R FFL to have their wife or any other person listed as a responsible person.
