... Why are people so stupid?
One gunsmith I knew had guys bring in loaded guns all the time and not mention it.
THAT is the 64 thousand dollar question right there! They seem to be getting worse as well.
Charlie,
There are a number of things you could make for firearms without having an FFL (I'm "almost" 100% sure but double check to be safe.) Things like bipods, "shooting sticks", flash suppressors, all kinds of "mounting hardware" for ARs and other guns, sights, scope mounts, etc., etc. Basically anything that does not have to do with the function of the gun itself. It may even be possible to make actual gun parts, triggers, firing pins, and on and on but I'd definitely check the ATF regs on that.
Oh, another thought, "fabricating steel targets". There is a market out there for the "cowboy shooters" as well as the long range guys for steel targets.
Hope that helps,
