#1 cited ATF violation and how to avoid it

Our magical FFL software can’t create time, but we can reduce the time spent on your ATF books and simplify tasks to ensure you can always do a quick, simple acquisition or disposition. While a traditional bound book, or FFL bound book template, requires you to enter each item individually, FastBound allows you to enter the Manufacturer, Model, and other information one time.

Here at FastBound, we know it is every Federal Firearms Licensee’s worst nightmare to receive a violation which could put your lively hood at risk. Often times the simplest things can cause the biggest issues. The seemingly small tasks that get brushed aside during your daily operations can come around to haunt you.

So what is the #1 cited ATF violation?

Time. The #1 cited ATF violation in 2015 (last released data) was “failure to timely record information in bound record (A&D record).” We all understand the importance of timely recording in your ATF books, but we also know paperwork and bookkeeping are often pushed back until “a free moment.” As a busy business owner or store or compliance manager, your time is precious and valuable and managing a traditional ATF book is tedious and time intensive.

So how do you avoid this violation?

Our magical FFL software can’t create time, but we can reduce the time spent on your ATF books and simplify tasks to ensure you can always do a quick, simple acquisition or disposition. While a traditional bound book, or FFL bound book template, requires you to enter each item individually, FastBound allows you to enter the Manufacturer, Model, and other information one time. All you have to do is enter the serial numbers and you are ready to do a batch acquisition. Our FFL software saves the contact details, as well as firearms information, for use in later transactions. No more writing “1234 S West lane” ten times in a row.

In addition to saving time, FFL software automations help to reduce clerical errors and reduce corrections. By automating much of your ATF books, you can eliminate the repetitive nature of bound books and ensure timely acquisition and dispositions each and every time.
