List of Safe Contents?

[thatryan]

Do you keep a list of everything in your safe, just in case? Photos, serial numbers, weapons, accessories etc? Hardcopy or digital files encrypted maybe?

I use a db program called Firearm and Knife Collector software http://softwarescripts.net/Firearm_A..._Software.html

but I'm thinking of trying the CMP collector software so I can add in my tools and other items. http://www.nmcollectorsoftware.com/

Pics are worth their weight in gold. I don't get anal with it just simple documentation and pics.

No,but it's a good idea.One of the things in my safe is a complete list of everything in my wallet.

I use to.... I use to keep my guns, ammo, mags, big bills (safety money) accessories and important documents (HSC, SSC, Passport ect).


Until I filled my safe full of guns. Now it's just guns and 3 of he 80 mags I have. I'm still trying to find a place to store my ammo, gear, mags and reloading gear. My documents and stuff all went to my parents house in their file cabinet for the time being.

Yes. Digital, encrypted in several locations.

Plus my bank requires it because I insure everything through them.

If anything ever gets stolen and u have no idea of the serial numbers then your SOL on reporting them stolen ect.

I really need to get documenting yeah. Do you print out photos as well? Any other cool applications you know of for taking inventory?

Thanks!

My Gun DB is decent, it's not slick but it gets the job done and you can enter serials #s, pictures, dates, condition, notes, values, etc. and you can keep a good list of your ammo too.

you'll need it for reimbursement from insurance policy....so yes...

Not just the safe. The whole house. I have a list of all the important stuff. Including serial numbers, etc. Plus I've used Quicken for the last 20+ years. And just about everything I buy gets recorded. So I can literally pull a report of, say, 98% of everything I've ever spent money on.

Then I have photos of the important assets. And a video walking through the house...all rooms, closets, cabinets, etc. And I have copies of all receipts of all major assets...including the firearms. I also have copies of my resume, references, diploma, insurance policies, deeds, trust documents, etc. Everything.

All of this is digitally recorded. And encrypted (using TruCrypt...It's free. Check it out). And stored on two different thumb drives...in addition to my computer. One drive I keep with me. Always. The other sits in a safe deposit box. Once or twice a year I take a weekend and update everything.

This was also posted in a thread dealing with a wife who had no idea what her late husband's guns were worth.

I keep everything on a spreadsheet plus mags and such. Pics of everything as well. keep on flash drives. Periodically update value range. This way when I croak, you guys won't be able to unmercifully lowball her in the Marketplace.
