Looking for small inexpensive space for an FFL
I am considering getting my FFL, and would like to do so in a commercial space. Does anyone have any leads on a cheap commercial rental space (would only need 90ish square feet)? I am fairly flexible on location-Phoenix, Peoria, Glendale, or Surprise. Thanks in advance!
Re: Looking for small inexpensive space for an FFL
Try 67th ave and Greenway north west corner there is a little center that sits back away where C-3 Arms started out, From what he said he did really good business there and then moved to a larger location. I believe it was around $500 a month or so. I was going to take the spot after he left and pick up the customers looking for him but decided I didn't want to sit in a store all day. It is west of 67th in a little alley way that leads to I think a self storage place.

I think that is where Arrowhead security is. They are another FFL that does cheap transfers

Thank you for the recommendation, but yes, that is where Arrow Security is. Please keep other suggestions coming.

Make sure you are in a high traffic area.

You know u are right. But as I drive around and go to some of these gun stores they are not in great locations.

Re: Looking for small inexpensive space for an FFL
OP, unless you are looking to open a retail shop why cut into your profits by renting a location to do transfers?

In his defense that was probably in the second week of business school.
Sorry to the OP. Sometimes I just cant help myself. It's a character flaw I'm not proud of.
But I do enjoy the hell out of it.

So you will only be as successful as you can afford to be. Yup that sure did come from business school.

OP, check out Loopnet.com; they are a commercial real estate listing site. You should be able to find something listed on there.

Despite the attempt at sarcasm it is actually just another Capt Obvious moment.
Yes a smart business owner knows to start within their financial range and then expand/relocate as they can afford to. Over extending yourself is the fastest way to loosing it all and shutting down.
