Pass down more
than the gun.
Designate an heir for every firearm. Write the stories that go with them. When the time comes, your family inherits not just the gun — they inherit why it mattered. No confusion, no lost serial numbers, no guessing.
A gun without its story is just a tool.
Every firearm in your safe has history. The .22 your grandfather taught you to shoot. The shotgun from your first dove hunt. The carry piece you picked out the day your daughter was born. Those stories matter — and when they're gone, they're gone.
Gun Legacy is the tier where Gun Vault stops being an inventory tool and becomes something more: a way to pass down not just your firearms, but the reasons they meant something to you.
Your kids will know why you kept that old 10/22. Your executor will know who inherits what. Your family won't be googling serial numbers and FFL rules during one of the hardest weeks of their lives.
Estate planning, built into your vault
Everything in Gun Safe — plus the tools that turn a collection into an inheritance.
Name who inherits each gun
For every firearm, designate a primary heir by name and relationship — plus up to two backups if the primary is unable or unwilling to accept the gun when the time comes. No ambiguity, no family arguments.
- Primary heir + up to 2 backups per firearm
- Relationship, contact info, state of residence
- Notes on restrictions (e.g. prohibited persons)
- Different heirs for different guns — no problem
Write the story behind every gun
Unlimited long-form writing attached to each firearm. Where it came from, who taught you to shoot, the hunt you brought it on, the year it was passed down. Your heirs will read these someday — and they'll know.
- Unlimited text, no word cap per story
- Rich formatting — headings, lists, emphasis
- Attach photos and documents inline
- Prompts to help you get started writing
Grandpa bought this rifle the summer after he came home from Korea. He walked into a Western Auto in Price, Utah, with sixty-two dollars in his pocket, and he walked out with this lever action...
He taught your uncle to shoot on it. Then your dad. Then me. I was eleven the first time I got to carry it — my shoulder hurt for three days afterward...
Your family gets in when it matters
Designate a trusted person as your digital executor. They receive controlled access to your vault upon verification of passing — able to see your records, heirs, and instructions without ever seeing your full account. Tested process, clear handoff.
- Up to 3 trusted executors
- Read-only access to vault records & heirs
- Verified via death certificate upload
- Printable PDF summary for estate attorneys
The legal handoff, state by state
Firearm inheritance rules change at every state line. Gun Legacy gives your heirs a plain-English walkthrough of what's required in their state — FFL transfers, probate filings, prohibited-person checks, the whole path.
- All 50 states + DC covered
- Interstate transfer rules included
- FFL locator integrated for each heir's state
- Updated quarterly; last-reviewed dates shown
$120 of platform credits included
Gun Legacy doubles your Gun Safe credits. Two free transfers and two free serial checks per year — covering more than half the annual subscription in credits alone. The rest is the legacy product.
My father had forty-one firearms. We had no list. No idea what was where, what was worth what, who got what. We spent six months cleaning it up with a lawyer. I will never do that to my kids.
Built for owners thinking ahead
Gun Legacy is the tier for people who've started asking "what happens to all this when I'm gone?"
The Family Man
You've got kids, maybe grandkids. Your collection has been acquired over decades and you want specific guns to go to specific people — not lumped into a pile the family has to sort through.
The Careful Collector
You've got 40–80 firearms, some worth serious money. You've written a will but never documented which gun goes to whom. Your executor will need a map — Gun Legacy is that map.
The Second-Generation Owner
You inherited guns yourself and learned the hard way how painful it is without records. Now you're building something better for the people who come after you.
