Firearms Check Sheet

AR-50A1 · 12-28-2015, 09:51 PM

Over the past few weeks I have been cataloging my collection using a form that I created. The form has been very helpful and a lot of specific information can be entered. It is especially useful for Luger's. The form was created in Adobe Acrobat and is a PDF document (form attached). You can use Adobe Acrobat to enter information or you can just print it out and use a pen to fill in the information.

I know there are different inventory software programs available but some folks are not computer savvy and want something simple. This form is simple.

Feel free to download the file and use it as you wish.

Seems like deja vu all over again; but, I like it.

Thanks for posting.

In my opinion that "check sheet" is quite useful, but it should be printed in our minds.
I realize that sometimes it's difficult to remain cold and detached (at least for me it is) especially if they show you a smashingly beautiful collectible. So in those cases I try to force myself to think: "the purpose is NOT to rationalize purchasing the gun, but is to ensure that I should REJECT the piece"

... and sometimes it works

I like AR-50A1's Sheet; If some one has a better one I would make use of it. If someone cares to modify this one, I would use it. I sell a booklet that has sheets to hold the general info and keeps it organized and in one unit - heirs' purposes.
Thanks
Jack

I found one online some years back but it was so detailed that it would have taken hours to fill out for my accumulation. And the executor of my estate won't care; she only wants to dump them and get back a few cents back on the dollar.

She thinks all guns should be melted down into manhole covers and everyone should eat only fish...And trees should be covered by the Bill Of Rights...

Same post is on the "other" luger forum, I saw it first and made the same comment- "I like it".
