Gun Register

A quick introduction to the guntrader software

The guntrader software has been designed specifically to cater for the needs of the modern registered firearms dealer (RFD). To achieve this, the software has been developed by an RFD and since its launch we have added features suggested by users or to respond to changes in legislation.

The software has been designed to support dealers and save them time, especially since the introduction of the VCR Act, paperwork is high on our lists of daily chores.

Some of the main features are:

  1. A full electronic gun and ammunition register using a barcode system.
  2. It will automatically produce form 11s for your customers and will even notify the relevant police force via email.
  3. The new online software is our fastest to date, hosted on a state of the art server.
  4. It can run on multiple devices and a range of operating systems with no installation.
  5. The data has end-to-end encryption along with daily back-up meaning our software is the most safe and secure gun register system on todays’ market.
  6. A very simple to use stock taking system using the barcode software.
  7. Other features include calculation of VAT on second hand guns
  8. The ability to keep your web site up to date at the click of a button; so no more tedious time wasted having to update the web site by hand!
  9. Tracking of guns sent on SOR to other dealers or sent out to repair.
  10. The new advertising manager that lets you know how effectively your advertising campaign is working.
  11. Plus many other features to make your time spent doing admin hugely decreased....
