If I were to die and my wife went to sell them, she’d know if they were family guns or not and what I thought the value at the time was to give her an idea.
Had one when house was burglarized in Dallas. $18500.00 loss. Did help with collecting about $95 % of loss from insurance co. Never had any follow up calls from D.P.D. Never got a weapon back!
I take a picture of them with serial number and descriptions. It is saved on iCloud so I can retrieve it whenever needed. You can edit and type on pics with iPhone pretty easy.
Don’t give up. I got one back after 20 years - a M700 .270 bdl. Turn it into a killer 6.5-.284 (literally). Several others from that heist are still missing tho.

Me too
Also I put those stringed price tag dillies on each gun including what it is & what it's worth. If it has a scope what it's worth. Most of my gun accessories and ammunition are tagged or marked.
I don't have anything on my computer. Why? A lot of reasons mainly because I'm an old guy.
We have a working spreadsheet that we edit as needed. We copy it over on to two different thumb drives. One is at wife’s office and the other is in my desk. Hope I never need them though.
Like several others excel sheet with name model etc, serial numbers, and notes on accessories, any work done such as trigger or muzzlebrake and I photograph each gun up close and from an overall perspective. Keep an electronic and hard copy version at my office.

Got a Beretta 380 back 8 years later stolen from Dad's truck...it's worth the effort.
