how would i go about selling my handloads in my own gunshop in upstate NY?

I believe you need a manufactures license from the ATF. The AFT web page would be the place to start.

A license and lots of liability insurance.

I would simply market them as "Custom Loads by fishguts"

Nice handle

that sounds like a plan rcamuglia! thanks guys, is there any New York State red tape involved?

Hey fishguts, where in NE NY are ya?

I'm 13 miles from the Corwall bridge.

im in rouses point, 1/2 mile from canada and a 1/2 mile from vermont.

What’s your legal liability for making ammunition in New York?

i dont know thats what im trying to find out?

im interested in this too as ive been expanding my little tackle shop to hunting stuff. what distributor do you use fishguts and what kind of prices do they offer on reloading stuff.

I think you need a type 6 license from ATF.

LWD

crave rite now for just personal stuff i use midway and sinclair, if i get into it i will find a good wholesaler.

ive heard some good stuff about jerrys sports center but im still waiting on them to finish my account. they dont list prices till you are registered though.

John LaSala, d/b/a Safari Arms, Ltd ( www.safariarms.com ) sells custom handloads out on Long Island. Don't know if he'd be willing to help out a potential competitor, but you might give him a shout.

I went through there twice on Friday.

On the way to Burlington, VT & on the way home.

We went over to B'ton to shop for a used VW Jetta for my daughter.

She ended up getting 1 helluva deal on a 2010 W/12K miles on it.

thanks guys, wildcat you went rite by my house then. i live pretty much at the base of the bridge.

If the customer provides at least one of the components you may be considered a custom reloader, and no federal license is required. If you provide all the components, you are a manufacturer, and need at least a class 6 FFL. However, these activitites maybe included under other FFL's as well.
