Have you tried getting a home-based business variance?

I ran into a similar issue in my last location and requested a zoning variance for a home internet business...no customers, no advertising, no traffic, no signs, etc... just a home based on-line business.

My local zoning inspector was OK with it. The ATF required that the zoning variance stated it was for home-based on-line internet sales of firearms (no just "sporting goods" as I first tried). Once the zoning variance was correctly worded and approved, I had my license in a few months...

Just a thought...hope it helps.
