Yep pics for me...(digital image)Printed out on a sheet of paper with a description, labeled and placed in the safe. George P. Has a point but there are so many papers stored in my I safe I don’t think a thrift would take the time to go thru them.They aren’t the target after all.
However Reading this I’m rethinking that.
IMO this IPhone7 plus with all its features is probably as secure as any electronic data machine can be. It’s camera is good enough to capture details like serial numbers and it readily prints wirelessly to my printer It can’t be opened when locked , and it locks after just minutes of idle time. . A photo of the firearm and a close up of its serial number can be stored in an album on the device. The info while important to the owner is basically worthless otherwise. A hard copy is needed so I’ll continue with the printed copy.
Thanks Op. a new project for yours truly.
I keep a detailed list, that I have stashed in multiple places including with a trusted friend. Some of mine were gifts and some were inherited. I have this information on those list. I realize that this info if for someone else after I'm gone.I own less than 10 guns. I have the original boxes for all but three so I have the serial numbers on the boxes.
It never occurred to me to write them down anywhere but I'm thinking I should.
I agree, you really should.
I don't want to put them on a device anywhere because devices fail
I feel the same way. I'm a pencil and paper kind of guy. Electronic devices can be hacked and can be accidentally erased.
I'm thinking about just writing down the serial numbers and leaving them in my wallet.
That would work. You probably can think of a better place though.
Does anybody have any better suggestions?
I had every serial number of each weapon engraved on it before they left the manufacturer. Good enough for me.
Someone suggested a thumb drive but I was taught the old way, two hands on the wheel at 10 and 2 o clock......
Sell a gun? What is this thing called "selling of guns"?What happens if you sell one?

-I think that these forms are only available as downloadable PDFs now.The federal government published a free firearms record form for personal use. Their publishing number P3312.8.
Call me paranoid but any form that is offered by the .gov pertaining to guns would be on my list of Don't Go Near & Certainly Do Not Fill Out.-I think that these forms are only available as downloadable PDFs now.
They are convenient in that they can be filled out online and then saved and/or printed out.
The government is trying to go paperless... .
