EVT is a private, native firearm collection tracker for iPhone, iPad, and Mac — built for serious collectors who want one place for everything: inventory, NFA paperwork, range days, reliability stats, and value over time. WHAT MAKES EVT DIFFERENT • On-device tax stamp OCR. Drop an ATF Form 1 or Form 4 PDF and EVT reads it — manufacturer, model, serial number, caliber, registered owner, ownership type (Individual / Trust / Corporation), submission date, and approval date. No cloud OCR, no servers. Apple's Vision framework runs the recognition locally. • Awaiting ATF tracking. Submitted Form 1s and Form 4s appear on a dashboard widget that counts days since submission, sorted by longest wait. Never lose track of what you've filed. • NFA approval-time chart. See your average wait times by year, form type, and ownership type. Filter by 1Y / 3Y / 5Y / all-time. Tap to drill into every stamp. • Reliability leaderboard. Per-firearm mean rounds between malfunctions, computed automatically from your range log. Discover which guns earn their range time. • Privacy by default. Your collection data lives only on your device, with optional iCloud sync between your own Apple devices. East Valley Tactical never sees your collection, your serials, your photos, or your paperwork. EVERYTHING YOU NEED IN ONE APP • Track firearms, silencers, optics, accessories, ammunition • Connect with East Valley Tactical — browse current inventory, save EVT to your contacts as a digital business card, and tap directly into call, text, email, Maps, or socials • Log range days, training, hunts, competitions, gunsmithing visits • Round counts, malfunctions, ammo used per session • Maintenance reminders — usage-based, time-based, or both • Optic battery replacement reminders • Cost AND current market value tracking with growth chart • Receipt OCR pulls date and total from photo or PDF receipts • Trust documents stored alongside the NFA items they apply to • Drag-and-drop tax stamps on Mac and iPad straight from Finder or Files • Quick Add from Stamp — create an entire firearm record by dropping in a tax stamp • iOS share extension — share tax stamps to EVT from any app YEAR IN REVIEW EVT generates a shareable Year-in-Review card summarizing your year: items added, rounds fired, range days, ATF approvals, favorite ranges, top manufacturers, average wait times by form type. Built to share to social or text to a friend. CROSS-DEVICE SYNC Optional iCloud sync keeps your collection identical across iPhone, iPad, and Mac with zero setup beyond signing into iCloud. Add a firearm on your phone, see it on your Mac seconds later. OPTIONAL GOOGLE DRIVE BACKUP For belt-and-suspenders peace of mind, EVT can export a full JSON backup of your collection to a folder in your own Google Drive. The transfer happens directly between your device and Google's servers using your own credentials — East Valley Tactical never receives a copy. BUILT BY EAST VALLEY TACTICAL EVT is published by East Valley Tactical, an Arizona-based FFL and one of the largest Silencer/NFA distributors in the USA. The app is provided free for the firearms community — no subscriptions, no in-app purchases, no ads, no data collection. Three years of running EVT taught us what collectors actually need; this is what we built. Free forever. --- iPhone or iPad on iOS 17 or newer required. Apple Silicon Mac on macOS 14 or newer required. Questions or feedback: app.eastvalleytactical.com/support
