Contrary to popular belief it is possible to purchase a firearm over the internet or via mail but for the weapon to get to your location you need the transfer services of a FFL locator. The abbreviation FFL stands for Federal Firearm Licence. This means that the locator or the gun handler has to have acquired the FFL licence in order to provide the firearm transfer service. Being a locator is one of the several benefits that come with owning the FFL licence though one still needs another licence called the FFL class 3 (SOT) licence to transfer silencer, machine guns, and SBR's.

The SOT i.e. Special Occupancy Tax licence is the license that allows one to deal in NFA firearms. The NFA or National Firearms Act is the act that provides the stipulations that govern machine guns, short barrelled rifles, and silencers. To deal in NFA firearms you pay an annual sum (SOT) to the ATF (Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms) to maintain this license in addition to the FFL License. By virtue of acquiring the FFL and FFL SOT licences you will be able to become a FFL locator and ...
... also buy NFA firearms and accessories tax free. You will also not have to wait for 4 to 5 months for delivery of the arms and ammunition, rather the wait is reduced to 2 or 3 weeks.

These licences can enable you to work from home as an SOT dealer or what is known as a Home Based FFL dealer. As easy as this seems there is a whole process you must go through to qualify to become a FFL gun dealer. Other than meeting the prerequisites set by the ATF, there is an interview to test your conversancy with gun regulations.
