I just find it hard to believe that they are doing it for financial reasons. In Minnesota, there are millions of duck, phesant, grouse, squirrel, and deer hunters. Anytime I went into the hunting department, there were a lot of people there. I'm suspicious that they caved in to some kind of bureauocratic pressure from the feds.
It's nothing more than an economic decision. If the guns cost more to sell due to licensing and record-keeping requirements, they don't sell them. This is typically at a state level.
I buy my guns from a local guy - I prefer the small dealer anyway. yeah, I pay a few bucks more, but I think it's worth the money to help my local economy.
