I don't know if you'd call them professionals but I see guys doing that on the side of the road and selling custom knives too.
Cheaper to boost them.
Chiefs and butchers would be regular customers. Branch into hair salons with clippers and such. Gun Shows and other events. $10k would be training, equipment and advertising.
Yep, or skip the freezer and get a van for stereo equipment. "We did an install and have some speakers left over."

I should start a company with a simple device to help grab, or pull AR15 magazines. I shall call it Mag Pul.

Judging by your post count, you're hired!
I also thought it'd be cool to rent go pro or other action cams at shooting events and other events like corporate events and such. Get with some paint ball fields and some race tracks for go cart or even race cars etc. Anywhere were simi pros compete where they'd want an action camera.
Dummy rounds sell for ridiculous prices online.
Low overhead, low initial investment, sell dunny rounds online and at gun shows. Make the little pens and stuff. Sell at discount to gas stations and 5 and dime stores.
Use the money not invested in equipment and components to live on while getting the business going.

A friend if mine does laser etching. Seems like more hobby than business.

Pitfalls here are not doing real market research and not being able to scale up. A lot of times we think a market is there because ourselves or our small social circle would be interested in the product or service.
I buy my cell phones from this used cell phone shop in town. They seem to do a brisk business online and in person. I suppose their issue if scaling up is labor. 2 brothers run the place and in order to open another location it would be hard to hire and compensate others to know as much and work as hard as the business owners. Could sell franchise rights I suppose.
