I was browsing through Midways gunsmith catalog an noticed that sending in a current FFL was required to order....Is this correct?

FFL not required to order from Midway or Brownells, but you will be paying catalog (retail) prices, the FFL # qualifies you for the trade price discount.

Only to get the dealer discount and to order actions ect. That a ffl is required for.

You can also get the dealer discount with a Curios and Relic ffl (30.00 for 3 yrs) at both Midway and Brownells. Just don't expect to order any receivers with it as these require the regular FFL.
