Requirements to Buy and Sell Ammo

I,m not sure where to put this, but here goes. Recently my BIL purchased a small general store in a rural community. Some of the locals have asked if he is going to stock any ammunition. My question are:
1. Is there special liscensing(sp) required for this.
2. How does one go about contacting brokers in order to purchase wholesale.
3. Does the presence of ammunition impact his liability requirements ( he will operate under an LLC,.)
Thanks

he needs to get a federal firearms license.Even though you don't need one to sell ammo no distributors will sell it to you unless you have one

He can always buy it from Walmart and mark it up. I'm pretty sure that's what the convenience stores in middle GA do, because the only way I would pay their price for ammo is if I was out and either had to buy it or go home without hunting.

Contact Elliott Bros., Sports South, or some distributor that sells ammo. They will tell him just what he needs. I can give him the numbers if he needs them.
