New Features

Quick Access to Full Screen Images

A new feature has been added that allows quick access to all images in full screen format. This feature can be accessed by clicking on the gun default image in the header at the top of the screen. This feature is available in the Gun, Maintenance and Range screens.

As a quick review, a default image can be assigned to a firearm from the Gun Images section of the gun screen. Simply right-click on the image that you want to be the default image and select the Set as Default Image option as show in the image below. The form Save button must be clicked to save the new image assignment.

Once the default image is assigned it will be displayed in the header of the form, as seen in the image below, to access this new feature simply click on the image.

Accessory Duplication

The ability to duplicate an existing accessory has been added to the Accessory List screen. Duplicating an accessory is great when adding magazines or multiple items from the same purchase.

Select the List option under the Main System menus Accessories option.

Main Menu Accessory List

The listing of accessories now has an additional column. The column is highlighted and pointed too in the image below. Find the item that you want to duplicate and click the green copy button.

Accessory List

If a purchase record is found, for the record being copied, the following screen will be displayed so that the new accessory can be added to the existing purchase or a new purchase order can be created. Below are two example of how to appropriately use each option.

  • Select Use Existing if the existing purchase order is for 4 items and you are now creating the other 3 accessories.
  • Select Create New if the original purchase order was created just for 1 item (even if 4 where purchased).

Improved Round Count Tracking and Maintenance Recording Details

ArmoryBook keeps track of the total number of rounds fired for each firearm along with the number of rounds fired since its last cleaning. These counts are used in various system notifications and information displays. To increase the accuracy of these counts, and to allow for more detailed maintenance information, each maintenance type can new be tagged as Barrel Cleaned During Maintenance.

When ArmoryBook is tallying rounds fired for range trips and cross-referencing maintenance records, it will use this new classification to indicate if the rounds fired since last cleaning should be reset. This new feature will allow for the creation of detailed maintenance types that will NOT affect the round counts on a firearm. For example, a maintenance type of "Refinish Stock" can be created with the Barrel Cleaned During Maintenance field not checked. When this maintenance type is used, it will have no affect on the tallying of round counts but still allow for tracking the stock refinish that was performed.


Maintenance type information can be modified in the system setup screen. To access the setup screen, go to the main menu setup option and select Maintenance Type.

Main Menu Maintenance Type Setup

The Maintenance Type listing screen has a new column, Barrel Cleaned. This provides a quick way to identify if a maintenance type will affect the tallying of round counts.

Maintenance Type List

The Edit Maintenance Type screen now has a checkbox, Barrel Cleaned During Maintenance. The value set here will be used as the default value when this type of maintenance is selected on a maintenance record.

Edit Maintenance Type Barrel Cleaned not Checked

Edit Maintenance Type Barrel Cleaned Checked

When entering a maintenance entry for a gun, the Barrel Cleaned option will change dynamically based on the value selected for the maintenance type field (Complete Breakdown in the image below). The Barrel Cleaned option can be checked/un-checked for any maintenance type, regardless of how it was configured. This allows for setting this value on a case by case basis. For example, if during a Complete Breakdown maintenance the barrel is usually cleaned, but in this case it was NOT, you can simply un-check the Barrel Cleaned option and the round count will not be reset when the system is doing its calculations.

Maintenance Record Entry Screen

The Barrel Cleaned During Maintenance information has been added to several reports, the first is the Maintenance Info report. This report is available from the main menu report option as seen below.

Maintenance Info Menu Option

To simplify displaying this information in the report, and to try to include as much information without adding new columns, an * has been added to the Maintenance Type column (red arrow in the image below).

Maintenance Information Report Highlighted

A barrel cleaned column can be displayed, if desired, by selecting the Barrel Cleaned option in the Column Visibility selector.

Maintenance Information Report Column Options

Below you can see the Barrel Cleaned column displayed. Noticed that the * is still displayed in the Maintenance Type column.

Maintenance Information Report Barrel Cleaned Column Visible

As in the Maintenance Info report, the Barrel Cleaned During Maintenance information has been added to the Maintenance Aging report. This report is available from the main menu report option as seen below.

Maintenance Aging Report Options

The Maintenance Aging report has been modified to include an * in the Maint Type column (red arrow in the image below) just as in the Maintenance Info report. The barrel cleaned column can be displayed, if desired, by selecting the Barrel Cleaned option in the Column Visibility selector.

Maintenance Aging Report Highlighted

When Maintenance Aging information is displayed on the home screen it will also include the * indicator in the Maint Type column.
