Firearm InventoryFull details → | |
| Track all firearms: make, model, caliber, serial, type | ✓All 18 ATF-required + custom fields |
| Status lifecycle: Available / Pending / Consignment / Sold | ✓Automatic transitions |
| Barcode label generation & printing | ✓Code128, standard label stock |
| Photo storage per firearm | ✓Multiple photos, cloud backup |
| CSV import from other inventory systems | ✓Configurable column mapping |
| Full-text search across all fields | ✓Serial, make, model, SKU |

| Web listing description check | ✓Flags listings missing the details buyers search for before they go on your site |
| Featured items for your storefront | ✓Choose what shows first on your dealer website |
Switching From Another System | |
| Guided bound-book migration importer | ✓Upload your current export, map the columns once, review every staged row, then commit |
| Saved import profiles | ✓Map a vendor’s export format one time and reuse it on the next file |
| Direct FFL Boss CSV import | ✓Reads FFL Boss bound book, inventory and customer exports as they download — no reformatting |
| Nothing is committed until you approve it | ✓Staged rows sit in a review queue; your bound book is untouched until you say go |
| A page that tells you what to ask for | ✓What to request from your current provider, what the file has to contain, and what happens to each row before you upload anything |
| Blank template that maps itself | ✓Download it, fill it in or hand it to your current provider, and the columns need no mapping at all |
| Try it with five rows first | ✓Run five firearms end to end in a few minutes. The real import refuses a serial already in your book, so nothing is booked twice |
| Reconciliation report when it's done | ✓Every source row accounted for and every serial traced to the record it became, with an attestation you can sign and keep. It reconciles the file against the system and says so — it never claims more than that |
| Import history | ✓Every import kept on file with what it brought in |

| Destruction records | ✓Log a firearm destroyed out of inventory so the book closes cleanly |
| ATF trace request log | ✓Record a trace request and your response against the serial |
| Trace Desk | ✓When ATF calls about a serial, one page shows where it came from and who it went to — the 4473 transferee details, corrections, theft and destruction records — beside the 24-hour clock. Serials that only look alike are flagged, never merged. Print the response worksheet for your file |
| Federal filing deadline clocks | ✓Theft/loss 48 hours, 3310.4 multiple-sale, Form 8300 and trace responses — counted down on one screen |
| Live ATF FFL eZ-Check verification | ✓Look up a receiving dealer's FFL number against ATF's FFLeZCheck at time of transfer. Auto-fills their license name and premise address, flags an expired or unlisted (revoked/invalid) license, and logs the check. Available on every dealer-to-dealer disposition, transfer, shipment, and GunBroker sale. |

| Firearm pawn intake as a bound-book acquisition | ✓Pledge writes the A&D acquisition on receipt; loan principal is the cash out of the drawer |
| Redemption through the existing 4473 / NICS flow | ✓Handing the gun back is a disposition — same Form 4473 and NICS as any other transfer |
| Forfeit to retail stock | ✓Defaulted collateral becomes ordinary In-Stock merchandise; sell it on a 4473 like anything else |
| Hidden from the public catalog while pledged | ✓A gun on an open ticket does not appear for sale on the dealer website |
Gunsmithing & Repair Service Tickets | |
| Separate Repair Bound Book (A&D) | ✓NSSF best practice: repairs kept out of your sales book, stock & P&L |
| Automatic acquisition & disposition entries | ✓Logged on intake and return, no re-keying |
| Intake-to-return workflow | ✓Submitted → Accepted → In Service → Ready → Released |
| Manager approval on intake & release | ✓Server-enforced, with full status audit trail |

| Official ATF Form 4473 PDF | ✓Prints onto ATF's own fillable form (Ruling 2022-1) — the government template, not a look-alike |
| Search by name, date, serial, or transaction | ✓ |
| Buyer self-check-in kiosk (Section B) | ✓Customer enters personal info, prohibited-person answers, and signature on a tablet; PIN-locked, you review & finish |
| Paper Form 4473 → NICS | ✓Buyer filled out the paper form? Record Section B from it and carry straight on to the background check |
| Spanish-language Section B | ✓English or Español on the kiosk; buyer certifies the official ATF Spanish attestation. Stored answers stay the same fields. Printed official form is still ATF's English 5300.9 |
| Pickup recertification on the same tablet | ✓If the gun is picked up later, the buyer re-signs that their answers are still true |

| Read-only ATF inspector login | ✓Hand the inspector a locked account that views records but changes nothing |
Security & Backup | |
| Role-based access control (RBAC) | ✓Admin / Manager / Cashier / Owner + read-only ATF Inspector |
| Read-only ATF inspector login | ✓Hand the inspector a locked account that views records but changes nothing |
| Two-factor authentication for every staff login | ✓Admin, owner, manager, and cashier. The register cannot be opened on a password alone |
| Register locks when it is left idle | ✓A cashier with no activity for 15 minutes is signed out |
| Authenticator again before the book leaves | ✓Downloading the bound book, the records package, or a backup, and adding a user, asks for the code again. It stays good for ten minutes. The inspector login is not asked |
| 4473 scans sealed to this PC | ✓Scan files and exemption copies are encrypted with a key Windows opens only on this computer. A copied folder does not open elsewhere. The recovery copy rides only inside an encrypted backup. The inspection export stays a plain CSV |
| Audit fingerprint kept off the database | ✓Each backup appends the latest fingerprint to a log that is never rewritten, and that log is packed into the encrypted nightly archive. Rewriting the live book so the chain looks intact will not match a fingerprint that already left the building |
| Hourly encrypted snapshot of the bound book | ✓Uses the backup password, so there is no plain copy. The program will not delete one until it is 48 hours old. If an off-site folder is set, the same zip is copied there. The live database file on the PC stays a normal database so the book can always be opened |
| Automatic daily local backup | ✓Runs while you work, includes 4473 scans, PDFs and FFL certificates, and is opened and checked before it counts as a backup. Encrypted off-site copy is opt-in in Settings. |
| Off-site copy to a folder you choose | ✓A synced cloud folder (OneDrive, Dropbox, Google Drive), another PC or NAS, or a USB drive. Every backup is copied there and read back byte for byte to prove it arrived. Backblaze B2 is supported too |
| Told when the off-site copy stops | ✓A copy that quietly stopped working is the one you find out about on the worst day. This one tells your phone |
| Full audit log of all data changes | ✓Who changed what and when |
| Tamper-evident record integrity check | ✓Every audit entry carries the fingerprint of the one before it, so an entry edited or deleted later stops verifying. One button re-checks the whole chain |
| Restore check before you restore | ✓Compares a backup to your current records first, and warns you if restoring it would lose newer entries |
| Take your records with you, any time | ✓One button writes your A&D bound book, 4473 index, transfers, lost/stolen, destroyed, NFA items, customers and invoices as plain spreadsheets, with copies of your 4473 scans, FFL certificates and NFA documents and a checksum for every file. Encrypted with your backup password. You are never locked in — and if you discontinue business, the readable set is one copy away |
| Local SQLite database — works offline | ✓No internet required to operate |
| Run a second register on your shop network | ✓Two PCs working one set of records — the counter and the back office stay in sync |
| Multiple FFL licenses, one book each | ✓Add a second license (01 + 07, or a second premise). Acquisitions and 4473s stamp the license selected on that device. Bound book and firearms list follow it |

Accounting | |
| Sync sales & payments to QuickBooks | ✓QuickBooks Online (API) or Desktop (Web Connector); no re-keying invoices |
| Bank / credit-card statement import | ✓Upload the CSV from your bank or card, untick anything personal, post the rest. Re-uploading the same statement never doubles up |
| Review queue before anything posts | ✓Imported charges wait in a review list until you post them |
| Receipts attached to an expense | ✓Photo or PDF, kept with the entry and backed up off-site |
| Recurring expenses | ✓Hosting, software, anything monthly — staged for review on its day, never posted on its own |
| Statement reconciliation | ✓Tick what cleared and see the difference against your statement balance |
| Split a charge across categories | ✓One $100 charge becomes $60 supplies and $40 shipping, matched to the cent |
| Monthly profit & loss | ✓Income, cost of goods sold and operating expenses by category, printable — inventory purchases never counted twice |
| Close the books through a date | ✓Once a period is closed, entries dated into it are refused unless an admin overrides |
| 13-week cash flow forecast | ✓Projects your bank balance week by week from your own sales, buying, expenses and sales tax, flags the week you would dip below your minimum, and answers “what if I place this order Friday?” |
| Year-end books for your accountant | ✓One download: monthly P&L, every expense with its receipt files, sales tax collected by month, statement reconciliations and anything posted after close. Bookkeeping only — no firearms records or customer names |
Mobile | |
| Installable phone app (PWA) | ✓Add it to your phone; no App Store download needed |
| Check inventory, ring a sale, log a transfer | ✓Firearms & accessories stay split, same as the desktop |
| Scan a serial, SKU, or UPC to open the item | ✓Camera or hardware scanner on the floor; looks up exact matches, in-stock first |
| Deadline alerts on your phone | ✓A theft report, 3310.4, Form 8300 or trace response coming due — or a customer asking you to hold a gun — pops up on the owner’s phone. No texting service needed, and no serial numbers on the lock screen |
Setup & Training | |
| Practice mode sandbox | ✓Train staff on fake data; wipes clean, never touches real records |
| Guided getting-started checklist | ✓Walks you through first-run setup |
| In-app software updates | ✓Download the release from your dealer portal and apply it in the app — it verifies the file and refuses to update mid-4473 |
Built-In Reporting
Revenue, cost of goods sold, gross profit, expenses, net profit, and gross margin — all on one screen. Export any report to CSV, print a formatted report, or pull the A&D Bound Book PDF for your records. Includes monthly Profit & Loss and consignment aging.
