I went and got a C&R FFL. Well, still waiting for it, but it is being processed. I see everyone saying that you can get great deals with one. Can someone elaborate? What exactly does the FFL allow you to do?

Right now, I get a gun from the net, and a local range charges $20 for a transfer. I get some pretty good prices.

Can you buy directly from importers? If so, who/where are they? What else does the FFL allow?
