The current inspection disclosed redacted violations, redacted of which were repeat violations Most notably, licensee was cited for 478.36(a)- redacted, which were then seized by ATF Special Agents, 478.123 (a), 478.123 (b) and 478.123 (d)- licensee failed to record the acquisition and or disposition in redacted instances resulting in redacted firearms being reported missing. Inspections have shown a pattern of repeated violations even though ATF has been educating the licensee through every inspection and through every warning conference since 2008. Based upon these facts, the licensee knew his legal obligations under the Gun Control Act and disregarded those obligations; therefore revocation is warranted. This report was forwarded to DIO Aaron Gerber on June 14, 2017 for his review and concurrence of a recommendation of revocation. Revocation denied, DIO stated to conduct a WC only. A Warning Conference was held in the Fort Myers II FO on 8/29/17. A/S redacted and IOI redacted were present for ATF.
