What can I do gunsmithing wise legally without a license? Products I can make? Work I can do?
Charlie,
People ask me all the time to make accessories or do firearms repairs. The answer is no. I only work on mine and my son's firearms as I really don't want to deal with a low profit, high liability issue.

I'm not looking to be a gunsmith I'm just wondering What kind of work I can do if requested without getting in trouble
This is the right answer. You can get into a lot of hot water doing any kind of gun work without an FFL. There are some grey areas but i wouldn't even touch those with a 10 ft pole. My 2 cents.It's my understanding that one cannot work on a gun for profit, without a FFL.
You can work on your own guns or friend's as a favor, but not for money.
