He based this statement on an earlier claim that there are twice as many gun dealers as McDonald’s restaurants in California.

Really?

What is the criteria for being considered a "gun dealer" in California?

I only ask because in one silly story a few months ago when you dug a little deeper you found their definition of "gun dealer" included stores that sold only ammo or gun accessories (holsters, cleaning kits) although they never sold guns.

I know a couple of FFL holders who don’t even have a shop to sell anything out of.

They just use them for themselves and for acquaintances who need something shipped to a FFL holder for a small fee for doing the 4473.
