Blue River Guns

We had another big day in the evolution of the Blue River Guns store.  We have been approved with two very large distributers in the shooting sports industry.  MidwayUSA and RSR group have now been added to the great list of distributers Blue River Guns will have access to.  With the RSR group account we will now have the ability to drop ship many items directly to you from our supplier.  This will save both time and money for you the valued customer!

I received my Indiana Retail Merchant Certificate today, established a bank account in the name of Blue River Guns, and have secured 3 dealer accounts with distributers.  Over the next week you will begin to see inventory and pricing begin to appear  in the accessories and training aids in the inventory sections of the website.  Essentially Blue River Guns is open for

I received a letter yesterday for the BATF indicating that I had missed one item on the 01 FFL application.  It is amazing I reviewed that document at least a dozen times prior to sending it and still missed an item.  The application has been corrected and sent back with the missing information.  Hopefully, this means I will hear back within the next 2-3 weeks to schedule an interview and training for the 01 FFL.  God Bless, Paul

I have an established paypal account now for Blue River Guns to make purchases quicker and more secure for all parties concerned.  I am also currently researching a low cost merchant account to take credit cards by phone or fax for products etc.

Indiana Sales Tax and Business certificate should be received by May 31st according to the Indiana Gov website!  One step closer.

I have completed and received an IRS EIN number for the Blue River Guns business name.  I have filed with the state of Indiana to collect sales tax as required for merchants.  I have an appointment with my local banker to set up the account for Blue River Guns.  Once the account is setup on Tuesday I have a vendor in the waiting to begin sales of firearm related accessories that do not require the 01 FFL.  I look foward to opening the doors to Blue River Guns within the next couple of weeks.  God Bless, Paul-owner

I received confirmation today that the application fee for the 01 FFL has cleared at the BATF. Now they have the funds and I should hopefully receive a call soon for the scheduled interview and training for the 01 FFL.

I confirmed today that the BATF received the application for an 01 FFL back on May 4th so now I am simply waiting for a phone call from the BATF to perform an onsite interview and training.  I have worked on several documents today to include a pre-purchase agreement form, hold harmless agreement for firearm and ammunition purchases, and I am reviewing the necessary requirements for a bond book to track gun sales and transfers.  I am continuing to work on web solutions for purchases and payment.  Once again I look foward to serving you in the near future as hopefully one of your first choices when you think of an FFL dealer!

Over the past week I have continued to research and develope the various methods in which I will be using for e-commerce on this website.  Other issues that I have began to tackle would include pre-purchase agreements,  limited liability documents, and other administrative forms.  Still waiting a call from the BATF to schedule interview and training.
