Name: Raymond Louis Davis d/b/a Evergreen Pawn Type: Firearms Compliance Inspection (Type 02) 1 -58-00197 Lead Investigator: redacted Recommendation: Viols and Revocation/Denial of Renewal App Basis for Recommendation: The field investigation disclosed a total of 11 violations, two of which warrant revocation in accordance with the Administrative Action Policy. The licensee transferred a firearm to a prohibited person knowing or having reason to believe that the transferee is a prohibited person when the purchaser answered yes to 11c "Have you ever been convicted in any court for a felony..." in violation of 27 CFR 478.99(c)(1). Additionally, the licensee knowingly engaged in a straw purchase transaction as the licensee knew or had reasonable cause to believe that the purchaser of record was not the actual buyer when a different individual was allowed to redeem a firearm from pawn after the original person who pawned the firearm was denied. Emailed DIO Diana Mitchell and Acting DIO Paulean Wooley on 8/25/2015. The Monitored Case Briefing-Initial Submission will be emailed to the DIO and Acting DIO under separate email on 8/25/2015.
Two violations warrant revocation due to the FFL 's failure to prevent the transfer of a firearm to a purchaser who answered yes to prohibiting question 11 c on the ATF Form 4473 in violation of 27 CFR 478.99(c)(1); and appeared to be involved in a straw purchase of a pawned firearm in which the initial transfer was denied to the original pawn ticket holder, in violation of 27 CFR 478.21 a. In light of these violations, a DIO held WC ILO Revocation is recommended as the purchaser had a valid Georgia state permit, which resulted in the FFL not conducting a background check to reveal that he was prohibited. The FFL's response to the straw purchase was that they thought the transfer could be made to the person in possession of the pawn ticket. As this is the FFL second compliance investigation, it is believed that a warning conference would serve best to reiterate the seriousness of the violations and to further educate the FFL on the proper manner to handle transactions in the future.
