I have created a Gun and Ammunition database that I built for myself, but I have had several of my buddies try it out and like it so I thought I would release it to the public. This will be a free program, and there is no charge to use it. We use to call it freeware.
I use it to keep track of my cleanings, when I shoot, which guns I use the most among others. I also use it to keep track of my reloading and recipes. It lets me keep an eye on my inventory of ammunition.
I was wondering if a few of you could try it out and help me beta test it. I can't imagine that I won't do some upgrades in the future, but the most part I consider it finished as I have pretty much reached my limits of working with databases. I would just like to find any bugs in the software that I might have missed. Of course I am always open to suggestions.
I will be more than happy to answer any questions about the functionality of the program. It is a complied Microsoft Access database, but you don't need to know anything about access to use it. If you don't own a copy of access there is a free runtime available from Microsoft and I have it documented in my Quick start guide.
If you do try it out, feel free to just explore it a bit.
Anyway here is a link to the database: Gun and Ammunition Database
BTW.. this is my domain, and I don't have popup adds and crap like that. Also this is stand alone software, it doesn't connect to the web, cloud or any other thing that would share the data. This is really some old school stuff.
Oh, one last thing. I split the program and data files, so as I upgrade the front end it will not change any of the data you have worked so hard to enter.
Thanks,
Ron

In the link I will supply below I have a few screenshots to give you an idea of what it looks like. I don't imagine that this will be for everyone, and I built it for myself, so no hard feelings if you think it stinks!If you do try it out, feel free to just explore it a bit.
