In the US, to operate a gun shop, you must hold a Federal Firearms License (FFL) as a Dealer, Pawnbroker or Manufacturer. That license is issued by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (BATF or ATF). Last year, 139,244 FFLs were operating throughout the U.S., with Texas (10,532), California (8,435), and Florida (7,494) home to the highest number of FFLs.


There is no one way to learn the number of gun shops in other nations.
