Inspector straight out of college, been @ ATF for 3 years.  I use FastBound for a book and to generate my 4473s, so everything is typed, and all my NTNs are copied & pasted direct from NICS to FastBound.

Took him about an hour & a half to work through a year's worth of paper, inventory was only of 20 guns so didn't take long.

Gonna have to get a DL scanner to start auto filling the 4473.

I'm not familiar with the rigors of being an FFL,
but congratulations!

I assume it's far worse than OSHA site inspections.


Rubber glove, no lube worse.

I assume not a single 4473 was copied or photographed.
In a truly free country, Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms would be the name of a convenience store, not a federal agency

No.  NSA already has a back door into Fast Bound, I'm sure.

Did they ask to view fastbound or did you just give them a printout/pdf of your book and all your 4473s?

Just gave him all 38 pages of my book and the last year's worth of 4473s to leaf through.

He said Fastbound's offered them training but he's not had it yet.

Interesting.  I know my IOI really likes fastbound. She even said she could practically do an audit remotely from home if they had access to the account. But they would need a special auditor's account so that they couldn't make any changes in the paperwork. I'm not sure if that's something fastbound offers or not.

I'm happy with it so far. But I am probably going to add on the 4473 cloud soon so I don't have to print and keep paperwork anymore.

Just be aware that my IOI pointed out it's much faster to do an inspection on paper.

And...  Just passed my inspection for the new manufacturing FFL w/ my new company.  Hopefully done w/ ATF agents visiting the house for a bit.

My IOI did my inspection in the spring. It was less than an hour.  I only had two items in inventory.  I made a donation to a PD and he just said get the department to issue me a letterhead with the serial number.

My Manufacturer's license # just dropped.  The license hasn't shown up yet, but I suppose I need to round up some child labor.
