So I started making a database for the guns I own. I don't own that many, but figured I wanted things in case of theft, or if I sold it and it got used in a crime (especially if I leave CA and sell it later)
I have only sold a few guns in the past, and have no clue what the serial numbers were, but I did right down what I remembered (when and where I bought them sold them and model numbers)
Figured the database should be comprehensive and serve multiple functions What I have so far is
Type, Action, Make, Model, Model #, Catalog #, Serial #, Caliber, Finish, Barrel Length, Modifications, Date Acquired, Where Acquired, Dealer/Private Party, Cost, Special Characteristics, Primary Use, Recipient in case of death
And if sold when, where to whom and how much
I a thinking of adding (being a reloader) favorite load(s) as well
For some guns I cannot remember the exact date, but figure be as accurate as possible (I used my old HSC to date my first purchase)
Question is, should I include anything else? Anything that would be useful for insurance or estate purposes, or what have you?
