On 01/09/2017, Senior Industry Operations Investigator redacted commenced an unannounced compliance inspection at the business premises of Federal Firearms Licensee ( FFL ) Thomas W. Clark. See attached narrative for full details. Licensee was cited for 4 violations of the Gun Control Act (GCA). The inspection period covered the entire timeframe since the last inspection (5/11/2011 through 1/8/2017) due to the licensee’s extremely low volume of firearms sales and transfers. During the inspection period, licensee acquired and disposed o|j|| firearms. A&D Record Book violations included redacted instances of failure to timely and/or correctly record acquisitions (42.3% error rate) and| instances of failure to timely and/or correctly record disposition entries (19.2% error rate). Though the error percentage for the inspection period rises to the level of Warning Conference, Investigator B believes that issuance of a Warning Letter would be appropriate. Both Mr. Clark and Mr. Just stated that they better stand the regulatory requirements and the importance of maintaining accurate and complete firearms records, including the requirement that Mr. Clark record his own name and residence address in the disposition section of the A&D Record Book. Mr. Clark and Mr. Just both stated that they would make a more concerted effort to maintain the required records in the appropriate manner in the future. Also recommend the FFLC amend the Search Results main screen to display the licensee name. The licensee name fields are blank for responsible person and applicant.
