Re: Easier to get guns in some states then Scotch.
AC, I was being sarcastic. I've been making & selling beer & wine for quite a while, and am now trying to get into the distillation business. The paperwork is pretty bad, thus my comment.
I'm not exporting booze or firearms, so things like ITAR are meaningless to me.
I have, however, manufactured a couple firearms. They are personal use only. The feds haven't bothered me over them, less so than actually purchasing one at a retail level.
