If you’ve done us all a favor by assuming the responsibility of an FFL, your life is about to get easier. Happily, this new FFL software from FFL Safe is available to replace your spreadsheets and paper records to make your work easier, less time-consuming, and more secure.
FFLSafe: Free Compliance Software
Proper record-keeping has never been easier.
What Is FFLSafe?
FFLSafe is a new record-keeping system from the people at Gun University. It makes tracking incoming firearms, outgoing firearms, and contacts easier than ever. More importantly, it runs compliance checks that alert you any time the system detects a violation or error. All your records get backed up, both on your computer and in secure cloud storage.
According to FFLSafe, the software will soon allow you to fill out and store 4473 forms with digital signatures.
How It Works
Keep all your records error-free, secure, and in one place.
To get started with FFLSafe, all you need to do is set up an account and verify your email address and FFL number. Make sure to import all of your existing bound book records (FFLSafe has instructions for that).
Once you’re up and running, you can start acquiring firearms and adding them to your records. You’ll use the same firearm and contact information you already keep on file, it’ll just be easier to input and more organized in FFLSafe.
When it’s time to dispose of a firearm, you can transfer it to a customer, another FFL, or a government agency with a few clicks. You can also store records in the event you need to destroy a firearm or report to the ATF that a firearm has been lost or stolen.
All your records will be compiled in a digitally bound book that meets the ATF’s record-keeping requirements. Here, you can view all your entries or find exactly what you’re looking for with a search function, filters, and sorting methods. You can send this information as a CSV file via email or download it to your computer.
How to Use FFL Safe
ATF Requirements
Getting started with FFLSafe is as easy as setting up a free account and migrating your records from either paper copies or a spreadsheet into the FFLSafe software. It’s not difficult but the ATF has certain requirements you need to follow.
According to FFLSafe:
- You may move only your current inventory (and NOT any firearm record that has been disposed).
- You must keep your old bound book records for inspection for as long as you have your FFL.
- You must use the date you moved the record for the disposition off of your old bound book.
- You must use the original date and source for the acquisition information in your new book.
