Ugh. It's that time.

I hate inventory time. I skipped last years inventory because I hate inventory time. That means this years is going to suck even more. And it's colder too. Should NOT have skipped last year's inventory.

Counting toes or fingers?

 

[Rez Exelon]

I mean, that too. But I've been acquiring toys more than I've been making notes about them. Also have been shuffling optics and not paying attention to where the expensive glass keeps going. So time to update records.

I used to run an complete inventory on large parts every 3 months. But would only take a couple of guys 3 hours to finish. And even then when one guy couldnt count, it added more time for recounts. get a way to list it on a program. scanned in.. add info . In my personal inventory I have a binder with pictures and SN's listed. When I would pick up a new I would snap a phone pic and email it to be printed. Move sold pics to a sold binder for future reference

My wife has been after me to do the same. Buuut, if I do that, she’ll see some things I may not want her to!

That's real similar to what I do. I make notes on SN, picture, accessories, and then dumb stuff like "do I have a box and did I put the box in the attic" or things so that I know if I ever sell something then I can give the thing complete and not find parts down the road and go "oh I should have got those to ___ back in the day".

Also, since my wife is not a firearms person, I try to make notes on what current value should be so that if anything ever happens to me then she doesn't get scammed.

I’m down to two to rid my collection. And I am telling you it’s hard to do.

Keep a spreadsheet. Update at time of acquisition or disposal. Listed with add-ons, s/n, value. I, also, list purchase price, purchase date and disposal date.

Looking at the list, I am amazed that I'm alive. I can't believe how many toys I have lost in boating accidents and deposited on the bottom of the lake.
I may do some magnet fishing, when the weather warms up. 20° at 8:00, I'm not getting on the water, today.

Lol... I did get a magnet fishing line like 2 weeks ago. Now just to find the right bridge

This is why I don’t own guns.
