How to become an FFL dealer?

So I was annoyed today as I went to buy a striped AR receiver (my first AR, hooray!) from AIM Surplus today, and it dawned on me that this is a "firearm" and must go through an FFL. Called around town and one place wanted $45, and another $50 to do the transfer! Finally a friend hooked me up with a guy who works out of his house and has an FFL and does transfers for $25.

I know they have clamped down over the years on what it takes to get an FFL, but how hard is it to do? Can I set up an "in home" internet-based gun store? I don't have a brick-and-mortar place to be a store except for my home. I have a shop room that can constitute an actual "place of business" easily enough.
