ALTERNATE RECOMMENDATION : WARNING LETTER - NO RECALL The inspection meets the standard for Warning Conference under the Administrative Action Policy (2/8/2013). The licensee was cited for failing to obtain complete certification information in Section A on redacted S Forms 4473 (20%) - Warning Conference at Sec. 6d.(3); and for redacted instances each of failing to timely/accurately record acquisition and disposition information in the A&D record (10% and 11%, respectively) - Warning Letter Sec 6.c.(1) & (2). Additional form violations do not rise to the level of administrative action. Letter JUSTIFICATION FOR ALTNERATE: The violations do not appear to meet the standard of willfulness nor did they directly affect public safety. This was the licensee's first inspection since obtaining the FFL in 2011. The licensee is a low-volume dealer that acquires/disposes of less than 25 firearms annually. No losses or traces were reported. Licensee explained that a long-time employee respons ble for the firearms portion of the business had left employment and new employees had yet to be properly trained. The licensee acknowledged the errors and was receptive to the corrective action. Based on the licensee's activity level, a recall inspection is not warranted. The licensee will be inspected on a 5-year cycle. AS Reviewed: 2/13/17 Sent to DIO : 2/13/17 DIO Concurs: 2/13/17 Warning Letter Sent: 2/13/17 Pll sent 2/13/17
