FFL POS systems have some specialized features to manage the unique requirements of a firearms retail store. One of the top gun store POS features is an integration with a ATF-compliant A&D management system. The FFL will also need to track serial numbers of regulated items, so a FFL POS system with serialized inventory will help efficiently manage the sale of guns. Gun buyers are often looking to buy items not carried in inventory, so the best FFL POS systems allow gun retailers to create and manage special orders for the sales of items not in stock that must be purchased from their distributors. Many FFL POS systems also include the capability to manage membership and the recurring monthly billing of members. Online reservation are also a popular feature for gun ranges. And if you do have a range at your FFL, its important to have a system that efficiently manage the signing of liabliy waivers.

Serialized Inventory – Serial Number Tracking
Add serial numbers to firearm products in the product record or at the front register and to sell and return serialized items. Use the Serial Number History report to search for serial numbers and view the transaction history for each serialized item.

Special Order Workflow
GunBiz POS supports the sale of firearms and other items not currently in stock. You can mark an item as a special order, add it directly to a draft PO or create a new PO.
