• Maintain strong compliance with ATF, OSHA, and internal safety standards.
• Ensure accurate completion of firearm transactions, including FFL transfers and ATF Form 4473s.
• Train, coach, and hold associates accountable for inventory control and compliance standards.
• Act as Manager on Duty (MOD) as needed, supporting the overall operation and guest experience
