FIRD is a private, on-device inventory and range log for firearm owners who want better maintenance records without sending sensitive data to a cloud service. Track your firearms, round counts, parts, ammunition, suppressors, range sessions, maintenance logs, malfunctions, and exportable history reports in one organized place. Key features: - Firearm inventory with manufacturer, model, caliber, serial number, round count, parts, and cover photo support - Parts-level wear tracking with service-life thresholds and replacement history - Range session logging with automatic round-count propagation to firearms and active parts - Ammunition inventory with caliber/load grouping, quantity tracking, purchase cost history, and low-stock alerts - UPC barcode scanning for faster ammo entry, backed by local seed data - Suppressor tracking with host usage summaries and weight-based cleaning reminders - Maintenance logs for cleaning, repairs, inspections, and part replacements - Malfunction logging with type summaries and optional ammo association - Platform-aware presets for common firearm families - Firearm history PDF export, including redacted export options - Optional Face ID app lock and privacy masking for sensitive details - Local notifications for part wear, cleaning reminders, suppressor weight, and ammo stock thresholds Privacy-first by design: FIRD stores your inventory on your device. There is no account, no backend, no social feed, and no cloud sync. Sensitive exports include redacted options, and the app can mask serial numbers, NFA status, and round counts when privacy mode is active. FIRD is an inventory, maintenance, and recordkeeping tool. It does not sell firearms, ammunition, suppressors, or firearm parts, and it does not facilitate transactions or transfers.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: FIRD at none against PrecisionLoad Suite's 1. PrecisionLoad Suite's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.2). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
