We hold all federal and state <br />licensing required. <br />We sell firearms primarily online, with some buyers looking to take transfers on -site and <br />occasionally purchase additional firearms on -site. <br />Our hours of operation are by -appointment only --we do not hold open hours. Typical hours <br />we will accept appointments are from 8am-6pm Saturday and Sunday, and 5pm-7pm <br />weekdays. <br />To include all deliveries and customers for the business, we plan to see around 2-3 vehicle <br />trips per day on average. I have one person who helps me with business operations, and he is <br />also a resident of Ramsey. I typically see him 2 days per week for business purposes. Many <br />days we will see 0 vehicle trips, but we do occasionally see around 6 trips per day when we <br />receive deliveries from multiple delivery services (UPS, FedEx, USPS, SpeeDee etc.). We do <br />not use any specialized delivery services, only services which travel through this <br />neighborhood on their normal route. <br />Our training is for Permit To Carry classes, which we are also licensed through the BCA to <br />conduct. We generally conduct approximately 1 class a month on -site, which ranges from 8- <br />20 students, most of which carpool. There are several months out of the year where we <br />conduct no classes on -site. These classes tend to start between 10am-noon and last <br />approximately 3 hours on -site. We then move to Total Defense or another shooting range to <br />complete the shooting portion of the class. From there, the students return home. On <br />occasion, we will conduct classes off -site. These classes vary in location, but are generally <br />75+ miles from Ramsey. <br />All business operations are planned to be completed in the newly built pole barn, which has a <br />16x24 section which has been built to be an office, inventory room. The pole barn is secured <br />with electronic dead -bolts throughout, automatic -locking garage doors, 24/7 video <br />surveillance at each entry, motion -sensing exterior lights and door/window sensors on every <br />door and window. The office is a steel -constructed room with no windows. All business <br />firearms will be stored in the secured office at all times. We will maintain a fire extinguisher <br />rated for ammunition in the office as an additional measure of security. <br />I am an ammunition handler for the Minnesota National Guard and have been for the past 9 <br />
