Record each asset against the club — and, where relevant, against the member storing it. For a firearm that's the serial, calibre, category and the storage permit it sits under; the digital record that replaces the paper armoury book. The register stays current, searchable and ready whenever you need to prove what the club holds and where it is.
Attendances and activity don't just attach to a member — they can resolve back to the individual asset. For shooting clubs that means every attendance can be reported against the specific firearm, giving you a per-firearm usage history, not only a per-member one. It's the connection that links member, licence, firearm and activity into one auditable record nothing generic can reproduce.
Pull the whole register for an inspection or annual return in a few clicks, with sign-out and return logs, servicing records and disposal or transfer history already captured. When an inspector or governing body asks the club to account for an asset, the answer is one export away — and the same trail covers any equipment another club needs to keep accountable.
