📚 27 CFR 478.125 field set 🧾 Tamper-evident audit trail 💾 Automated daily backups 🖨 Hard copy on demand

Looks like your book. Works like software.

The classic ruled register your IOI already knows — with search, filters, one-click dispositions and a licensee footer on every page.

FFL-BRO Bound Book Free — ledger view

Built for the counter, not the cloud

Your records live in your WordPress database at your licensed premises. The plugin makes zero external calls — nothing is ever sent to us or anyone else.

📚

Full A&D record

Every 478.125(e) column: manufacturer/importer, model, serial, type, caliber, acquisition and disposition with address, FFL number or 4473 serial.

🧾

No silent edits

Entries can never be deleted. Corrections preserve the complete before/after snapshot in an immutable audit log — user, timestamp and IP (ATF Ruling 2016-1).

💾

Daily backups, automatic

Ruling 2016-1 requires daily backup of electronic records. We run it for you — ATF-format CSV to a protected folder, 30-file retention, every run logged.

📖

Offline backup viewer

Download a single HTML file that opens your CSV exports in any browser — no internet, no WordPress. Your book stays readable and printable even if your site is down.

🖨

Hard copy on demand

ATF asks for printed records? One click prints the ledger with your licensee header. The inspector gets paper; you get on with your day.

🌙

Light & dark themes

Classic paper ledger by day, gray-and-orange night mode after close. Hard copies always print in paper colors.

Really free. Here's the honest pitch.

Bound Book Free is the free tier of the FFL-BRO dealer platform. The bound book is complete and unlimited — forever. When you're ready for more, the same platform adds:

Platform module overview

Your bound book data carries over automatically when you upgrade. Plans from $79/mo.

Questions dealers actually ask

Is it really unlimited?

Yes. Unlimited entries, unlimited exports, unlimited backups. The paid platform adds other modules — it never meters the bound book.

Does it meet ATF requirements?

It implements the 27 CFR 478.125(e) field set, the no-silent-edit audit behavior of Ruling 2016-1, automated daily backups, and hard-copy printing. Compliance also depends on your procedures; electronic systems may require an ATF variance depending on configuration. Not legal advice — the Help page has a full checklist.

Where does my data live?

In your own WordPress database, on your own hosting, at your licensed premises. The plugin makes no external network requests.

What if my website goes down?

That's what the offline backup viewer is for: a single HTML file that opens your exported CSVs in any browser, fully offline, and prints the complete book.

What happens when I upgrade?

The full FFL-BRO platform detects your existing book and carries the data over automatically. Nothing is re-keyed, nothing is lost.

Get your book out of the binder.
