COMPLIANCE INSPECTION TO BE CONDUCT IN CONJUNCTION WITH A COA.
This is the licensee's first compliance inspection since receiving the license in February 2014. In redacted instance, the licensee failed to ensure an ATF Form 4473 was completed by a purchaser (repeat customer) and failed to conduct a NICS background check for that purchaser. The licensee, on his own initiative, contacted teh customer, had him complete an ATF Form 4473 and conducted NICS receiving a "proceed" response. For the inspection period, there were redacted acquisitions, redacted dispositions and 24 forms on file. There were no traces to the licensee and no thefts/losses reported.
Based on the licensee's inspection history, there were no transfers to prohibited persons, and the licensee was able to reconcile all missing firearms, I concur with the lOI's alternate recommendation of Warning Letter and Recall inspection .
