All good - get a C&R. I recall some vendors will even give you a FFL discount even though you are not in business. There is some minor record keeping that goes with it. But I have never heard of any C&R FFL being routinely inspected.
One problem is that some sellers do not recognize it (FFL03) and will ignore the fact you have one. I suspect these sellers have some childhood trauma that is warping their thinking. I tell these sellers that my bid will be $35 lower because that is what the unnecessary additional transfer will cost.

I had a C+R license , I had a BATF agent come to my house and inspect house and wanted to see how they were going to be SECURED . So you will get a inspection from BATF. Asked some questions , was there about a hour and left.Mailed answer about approval letter.
To bring you up to speed a C&R FFL curio & relic ffl , not a carry license.
Allows a holder to buy C&R listed items with out going a 4473. But this does not allow the holder to be a business selling , for that you need your FFL03 or is it 07?
I've had mine for years and I have never been inspected.
I had a CRFFL from the late 90's til about 2006.
Was never inspected, it was a trouble free experience, and the ONLY downside was the cool stuff being imported really dried up.
Got a lot of great firearms during the time I had it though.

I had one up until 7-8 years ago, very simple application process, and never had any kind of inspection.
oh...huh.... oops.... sorry. carry on....
For a C&R license or for a regular FFL 01 (like a gun shop)? I've never heard of anyone getting inspected for a C&R license. There are no storage requirements or anything like that.
Pros:
Its cheap, can get you a few discounts, and obviously home shipping of what is left in the retail market.
Cons:
There is not much left in the retail C&R market. Buying from Type 01s is hit or miss. I have had terrible experiences with FFLs. You gotta give info to BATFE and COULD be inspected. I've heard a few stories and none sounded like a big deal. They just wanna see your book. I understand you don't have to let them in your house, you can meet at the office or some other location?
I have a good relationship with an FFL so I probably wouldn't get one today. 03s are not eligible for types of shipping as anon 01 (like Priority for handguns) so you might spend more than you save.

I was a mite confused.......
Got my ham radio license back in 2010 bc I wanted to transmit on ham radio bands. What's nice is it's recognized in all 50 states and even some other countries.
Here in Indiana it also affords the opportunity to listen to a police scanner outside my home and in my vehicles which would be otherwise illegal.
