Can I engrave my own gun?
Yes, if you are going to engrave guns you need an FFL. I hear all kinds of LOOPHOLES that people bring up when this subject comes up. However, it is not there to allow subcontractors to work under that shop’s FFL. You cannot have the shop receive the gun for you under their FFL then take it home and engrave it.

No, a license is not required to make a firearm solely for personal use. However, a license is required to manufacture firearms for sale or distribution. In addition, the making of an NFA firearm requires a tax payment and advance approval by ATF.

Do you need a license to carry a rifle while driving?
Depends on the state. Last I checked you only need a hunting license and go during gun season to carry a rifle, but if you drive with it, it must be unloaded and in the open or in your trunk or something like that. That may not be the case in states with stricter gun laws.

State laws vary, but if you have a hunting license, no other license would be needed for the rifle. Openly carried handguns don’t require a license here in Michigan if you are carrying one while hunting. Concealed handguns are a different matter and require a permit to carry.
