By Sam Kirkland, strategic relationship manager, Epicor Software

Thursday at SHOT Show, Epicor announced an agreement to work with FFLGuard to provide federal firearms compliance assistance for Epicor FFL Compliance Manager™ (Epicor FFLCM) users. Epicor FFLCM is a cloud-based solution that customers who sell firearms can use to manage their Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) bound book electronically.

Epicor originally created FFLCM to streamline transaction entry, reduce non-compliance risk, and quickly and easily generate the necessary reports for ATF inspections or inquiries. Customers already have access to consulting firms for assistance with regulatory matters; however, both FFLCM and federal firearms regulations have evolved since we first launched the product in 2016. Navigating this landscape is complex and our customers deserve a choice of compliance consultant options based on the best fit for their needs.

That’s why Epicor FFLCM customers will now also be able to tap into FFLGuard’s team of experts to guard themselves against costly ATF and FFL (Federal Firearms License) compliance checks. FFLGuard is a legal service offered by a collection of firearms compliance professionals. The company provides over 500 Federal Firearms Licensees across the country access to ATF and FFL compliance consultants. FFLGuard provides educational training and rapid response assistance with a focus on safeguarding the viability of the client’s FFL through proactive involvement.

Together we will continue to simplify access to ATF and FFL law experts so our customers can focus on elevating their profits instead of costly audits.

To learn more, please visit us at the SHOT Show in Las Vegas January 22-25 in booth 2048 or online on the Epicor FFLCM page.
