The penalty far outweighs any money you'll make doing it.

I called my ATF here in Fl and I was told as long as it was a slide or barrel ,and not the WHOLE FIREARM ,then you do not need an FFL
You can stipple a frame and do a barrel that's fine
Just can't do a Frame and a slide together at once

But you are right that if you keep a whole firearm over night to do work on it you do need it

Thanks for the heads up

Wasnt sure of the stippling but you sir are correct

Q: Is a license needed to engage in the business of engraving, customizing, refinishing or repairing firearms?

Yes. A person conducting such activities as a business is considered to be a gunsmith within the definition of a dealer.

Would a fine steel wool and then a good buff with metal polish give results like that??
