ARSENAL is a private, on-device tracker for your firearms collection. No accounts, no cloud, no data leaving your phone โ€” just a fast, focused log of everything you own. Your whole collection, organized Catalog firearms, ammunition, and accessories with the details that matter โ€” caliber, serial, condition, value, and photos. Everything cross-links: open a rifle and see the ammo you have on hand for it and the optics mounted to it. Range log that works for you Log every range trip with rounds fired, location, and notes. ARSENAL subtracts the rounds from your ammo inventory automatically, so your counts stay honest and low-stock alerts actually mean something. Never miss a cleaning Set a round-count threshold and ARSENAL flags any firearm that's due for cleaning. Keep a full maintenance history โ€” cleanings, repairs, parts, and inspections โ€” for every gun. Built for the details โ€ข NFA item tracking โ€” tax stamp number, trust or individual, approval date โ€ข Loadouts โ€” save a firearm with its accessories and ammo as a ready kit โ€ข Ammo inventory with per-caliber low-stock alerts โ€ข Dashboard with collection value, round counts, and what needs attention Private by design Your data is stored only on your device. Lock the app behind a PIN, and export a full backup whenever you want. Nothing is uploaded, ever. Own your records Export your entire collection to CSV or JSON for insurance, estate planning, or your own recordkeeping โ€” and import it back anytime. ARSENAL is an organizational tool, not a legal record of ownership or compliance. Always follow the firearm, ammunition, and NFA laws that apply where you live. What's New (for the first release) Welcome to ARSENAL. Track firearms, ammo, and accessories; log range trips and maintenance; set low-stock and cleaning alerts; save loadouts; and keep it all private on your device.
