About

Logbooks for Guns is browser-based record-keeping software for Federal Firearms Licensees. Since 2011, dealers, C&R collectors, manufacturers and importers have used it to log more than a million firearm transactions in an electronic acquisition and disposition (A&D) bound book. Firearms come in with barcode scanning and go out with ATF Form 4473 completed on a tablet or computer, with the NICS response recorded on the form. A business can keep separate books for consignment, gunsmithing, pawn or NFA items. No correction overwrites a record: the original entry and the reason for the change are kept, and the complete book exports for an ATF inspection. Each team member has their own permissions, existing records import from a spreadsheet, and a REST API with webhooks connects point-of-sale and e-commerce systems. Dealer plans are tiered by annual acquisitions, starting at $8 a month; collectors, manufacturers and importers have their own plans, and every plan begins with a 30-day trial.

About

​Merchant Magic POS is a comprehensive, ATF-compliant point-of-sale software tailored for the firearms industry. It streamlines operations by managing sales, refunds, layaways, special orders, trades, direct buys, consignments, FFL transfers, and purchase orders. The system supports item entry via a barcode scanner or touch screen, features user-configurable buttons for speedy sales, and allows scanning of driver's licenses to instantly add customers into the system. It tracks retail, web, gun show, and event sales, with customer notes appearing at POS. Integrated credit card processing, built-in training, and a complete gunsmithing module enhance its functionality. Security is robust, ensuring employees only access areas relevant to their roles. The software also offers features like gun trace capabilities, attachment of images to products and customers, allocation alerts at receiving, and the ability to run on one or more Windows-based PCs within a local network.
