Check the laws before you do this, unless you have the proper licensing. Or perhaps reword your statement. You MIGHT be encroaching on dealing firearms without a license because your primary motivation is profit, not "enhancing a personal collection" or some of the other things that are mentioned in the law.
http://law.onecle.com/uscode/18/921.html (21) The term "engaged in the business" means (C) as applied to a dealer in firearms, as defined in section
921(a)(11)(A), a person who devotes time, attention, and labor to
dealing in firearms as a regular course of trade or business with
the principal objective of livelihood and profit through the
repetitive purchase and resale of firearms, but such term shall
not include a person who makes occasional sales, exchanges, or
purchases of firearms for the enhancement of a personal
collection or for a hobby, or who sells all or part of his
personal collection of firearms;
(22) The term "with the principal objective of livelihood and
profit" means that the intent underlying the sale or disposition of
firearms is predominantly one of obtaining livelihood and pecuniary
gain, as opposed to other intents, such as improving or liquidating
a personal firearms collection
Could be trouble, could not be. I'm not a law expert but just passing on what I've read before. The laws are there and up for interpretation. Enforcement is another aspect.
What does everyone else think? (besides it being nonsense?)

The way I deal with my personal collection is that if I sell something out of the safe, then the money goes back into the safe. Meaning that I will take the money I receive from selling the lower and put it towards the purchase of something else for my collection.
