Bookfactory C&R bound books?

The Brownells book would do the trick for sure. I just went with this one because it's more "timeless".

An attractive book has to go with an attractive collection right? ;)

It was a bit pricey at ~$25, but that's not that much more than the book I bought at Office Depot today and will return tomorrow. It was a wash for the most part. Maybe $5 more.
 
If you check out their custom log book section, you can have them make a book to order with whatever you want printed on the pages. That might be a great way to make a range log book.
 
Those are nice and all, but I just printed some pages off the internet, punched holes in them and put them in a fifty cent pocket folder with a center binder. I'd rather spend the extra $$$ toward a cosmoline covered milsurp than a fancy book. :D

To each their own.
 
A school supply "composition" book is a bound book.

Take a ruler, make some columns, write some headings, and you're good to go.

This is one place where you don't need to spend any money.

Take the $20 and buy a box of ammo if you can find any.
 
agreed. It was a total waste of money in some respects.... but I bought it anyways.

I'm stimulating the economy right?

I still think a range log book would be a great addition to their line.

Let's pretend like it's not a stupid idea, and come up with a format that perhaps I can email to them and have one printed up.
 
I used the Brownell's one when I had my C&R, I thought it looked more formal than just downloading pages and printing them. Then I shredded it when I didn't renew the license. It served its purpose.
 
Straight Shooter, is that legally okay now?

I didn't know you could keep the records electronically now. Back when I had the C&R, I don't think it was an option, you had to keep the bound book.
 
To my knowledge, electronic records are not legally sufficient. You could easily delete stuff or modify stuff.

Got mine really like it.

It's nice isn't it? I like mine.
 
It is perfectly legal to have an electronic Acquisition and Disposition Record. All you need is approval from your local BATF office. They usually routinely approve them.

Mine is basically an Excel workbook I keep on a CD-R disc with printed pages in a 3 ring binder.
 
CD-RW isn't as robust a data format as CD-R.

But CD-RW is not necessary anyways, as a CD-R holds 650-700MB of data, while a text file containing C&R entries might be 10KB or less in .RTF or .XLS format.

So you keep copying new files onto the CD-R, big deal just put a date on them.

Shred or otherwise destroy the CD if you turn in your C&R.
 
CD-RW was a great idea, but I think doomed from the start as CD-R disks became so cheap so early on. Sorry to side track, but I guess this is sorta relevant, being about storing C&R data electronically and all.
