NOTES

Welcome to the nmCollector.net online gun identification and gun value database project. I hope this tool will become useful to members of the gun collecting community as we begin to develop and populate it with pictures and gun values.

As the name implies, the purpose of this new database is two-fold.

To provide a place where a gun collector can go to learn more about the wide variety of firearms that exist and some of their general characteristics. The database will provide a place to list the make, model, variation, description, pictures, and other information about each firearm that is entered.
To provide an idea of the general value of a firearm based on a price history by condition of similar firearms. The actual value of any particular firearm will depend on variables other than the price history of similar firearms but this will hopefully be a useful input into helping to determine a ballpark estimate of the current value of any particular firearm.

The value of this project to the gun collecting community will depend entirely on our level of participation. As the developer of the database and its interface, I am counting on you, the on-line members of the gun collecting community to help me by entering gun values and identification information.

Therefore, I welcome you as a partner in this project. I invite you to contribute your knowledge and specific transaction information. Be assured, that once data entry is begun, I will preserve the data that has been entered throughout the development life cycle. I can modify the database and the application without risk of data loss. The only risk of data loss will be due to catastrophic server failure and that should be mitigated by the web host provider backup system.
