### 5/5 — Great database!!

*2024-11-06, version 1.95*

Not difficult to understand on how to use. It will take you a few minutes to get familiar, but once you do, it’s a great record keeping tool. I use it primarily for my ammo.

### 5/5 — Know your ammo supply

*2021-10-08, version 1.83*

I have used this app for years because it works. I maintain a substantial amount of a variety of ammo. Just set it up and tweak it to the level of details that suit your needs and then forget about it. The only ammo on-hand balance error’s I’ve ever encountered were because of me failing to update the database. I don’t use the program to track my guns, only the ammo. Great little program.

### 5/5 — Knowing Is Half The Battle

*2019-07-08, version 1.83*

I like to pick-up ammo when a good deal comes by, rather than wait till I’m nearly out and have to pay for whatever I can find. This app lets me easily track my inventory, and keep tabs on round count through each gun.

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2017-07-10, version 1.72*

This is an organizational tool, and it works very well. It's a bit rough, not the smoothest layout, but when you understand the way the app works, it's very precise and clear. I'm a huge fan.

### 3/5 — Functional app with potential

*2016-05-27, version 1.70*

App is ok. Could be better if scanner is added.

### 4/5 — Works well enough

*2016-03-23, version 1.70*

Would be cool if it helped track reloads better

### 3/5 — Nice app, but really needs scanner

*2016-02-28, version 1.70*

I like this app, but don't use it because I cannot scan in/out ammo. Rather I use an app that is totally unrelated to firearms called Prep & Pantry only because it allows me to scan barcodes. Implement that capability and then you have yourself a useful firearms app.

### 4/5 — Great App. 5 stars if scanner is added

*2016-01-30, version 1.70*

Great app I like the functionality of it and the reports, which can be generated. It would be great if a scanner for easier input could be added.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2015-11-18, version 1.70*

Perfect for keeping track of ammo and guns.  Great app!

### 2/5 — Ok needs work

*2015-02-24, version 1.60*

App is good if you only purchase ammo from the store. 
A tutorial would be good. It took a bit of messing with to figure everything out.
The bought at tag is useless for reloads. Developer assumes you will only use store bought ammo.
A better solution would to be able to select between Reloads or store bought. Then label reloads as pistol or rifle etc. 
The amount shot is on this app. 
App needs a bit more flexibility to get more stars.
