A 30-minute conversation about your gun stores and ffl dealers workflows and whether Bravo is the right fit.
Hear from a store that handles pawn and firearms
Daily Pawn describes its experience with Bravo. Read the named customer’s account alongside the product recording, then discuss your own recordkeeping and transaction requirements. One store’s experience is not a guarantee of results.

How to evaluate an FFL point of sale
Bring a typical sale, trade or transfer and ask the specialist to show the software workflow. Dealer obligations and software capabilities are different: consult the compliance guides for the rules, and compare systems in the FFL buyer's guide.
- Where a customer completes Form 4473, what staff review, and how the background-check response is handled
- How acquisitions and dispositions reach the A&D book, and how your team checks and exports records
- Which inventory and historical records are convertible, what training and support cover, and who validates the move
- What the written quote includes for subscriptions, workstations, E4473, storage, setup and conversion
Compare FFL compliance guidance and the FFL point of sale buyer's guide. Ask for a written quote for your store; the $99 reference is Home-Based FFL only.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Bravo connect?
Bravo connects e4473, background checks, and an A&D Book in one FFL workflow.
How does onboarding work?
Ask the team for a written setup, training and cutover plan based on your records and store workflow.
What does it cost?
Request a written quote for your FFL configuration. The $99 monthly reference applies to Home-Based FFL, not every gun store; confirm whether E4473, storage, implementation and conversion are included or separately quoted.
Can I see the workflow before deciding?
Bring a typical FFL transaction to your 30-minute fit conversation. Your Account Executive starts with your needs, discusses relevant features when appropriate, and recommends the right next step for a tailored walkthrough.
