I certainly appreciate all your advice and I will use it to futher research my desired end.
Andy, I've got a class A license. In my town, unlike others in the People's Republic, they don't skimp on such issues.
I once worked at a small company where a fellow employee had an arms dealer license. One day he showed up with 10 AK-47's complete with bayonet and 100 rounds of ammo, for $300. While I believe in the 2nd Amendment, I personally didn't feel that I'd ever need such a weapon. He did sell all of them and several of us went out to a range and test fired them. Lots of fun!
