Not paper. Not the software you're stuck with.

The modern register for the British gun trade

Dealers today choose between paper that slows them down and dated software that's clunky, buggy and cut off from the shop. RFD. by Gunstar is the one that finally works the way you do.

01 — MODERN

Actually easy to use

Fast, clear and built this decade. No training manual, no fighting the system to log a simple acquisition.

02 — CONNECTED

Joined to your shop

The register and the till are one system — stock, sales and the record all in step, never keyed in twice.

03 — INSPECTABLE

Ready in seconds

When an officer walks in, hand them a clean, searchable record on the spot — not a system nobody can navigate.

What it does

Everything an RFD needs, in one place

Compliance

Your digital bound book

Every acquisition and disposal logged the way the law expects — searchable in an instant, retained for twenty years, and never again a shoebox of carbon copies.

  • Guided acquisition & disposal forms with built-in validation
  • Inspection mode: a clean, read-only view for police visits
  • Full audit trail on every record

Security & your data

Locked down. Backed up. Yours.

Your register holds sensitive, legally required records. Here’s how we keep them safe — in plain English, no jargon.

Encryption

Encrypted, always

Your records are scrambled both in transit and in storage — unreadable to anyone but you and the people you authorise.

Backups

30-day rewind

Continuous automatic backups. If anything ever went wrong, we can restore your register to any point in the last 30 days.

Isolation

Your data is walled off

Every dealer’s records are isolated at the database level — tested to confirm no other account can ever reach yours.

Infrastructure

Enterprise foundations

Runs on Cloudflare’s certified network (ISO 27001, SOC 2), with EU data hosting and built-in DDoS protection.

Access

Locked-down access

Passwords are one-way encrypted, never stored in plain text, with role-based permissions for every member of staff.

Audit trail

Tamper-evident by design

Every entry and correction is logged — the same audit trail that satisfies a police inspection proves your data’s integrity.
