GunZoo Version 4.0 is Live!

Mac MacDonald · Feb 20, 2012

This is our biggest and most exciting release to date! This release focuses on making GunZoo more user friendly and more fun to use than ever. We've redesigned nearly every page in the site with you, our user, in mind. We hope that you'll find the new activity feeds and page layouts to be much more informative and the site in general to be much easier to use. There's so much to discover; why not click around for a while?

Enjoy!

~ Team GunZoo

So because im slow can someone tell me how i add a custom gun to the list. I know it is a STI but it was bought as just a Frame kit and then a slide was bought seperate. I don't see anything about Custom or anything just models that i don't know what this one is.

Thx

I am loving me some Gunzoo!!! I was wondering if it would be possible to add some more information to our profile? Personal website? Forums we are members of? Sponsor's?

What about making it so you could have multiple/larger pictures of an individual gun?

Awesome! I signed up too, it's pretty cool! What does it take to get new models added permanently to the system?

Shoot me an email [email protected] for any guns you'd like added to our core offering. I'll be more than happy to get them added.

Thanks for joining GunZoo!

That could be a long list!!! Haha! Several of mine aren't on it. I'll send you some tomorrow.

My dad's a programmer, and I've piddled around with it some, so it's cool watching someone make their own "software" and the related databases that go with, and to see how they set up the front end.

I just got a PM from Flexmoney on the Brian Enos forum informing me that my signature containing gunzoo links was breaking forum rules somehow and my signature was deleted. I guess y'all need to stop supporting that forum as I am about to do.

It really is unfortunate they chose to take this stance. The forum signature tool we provide makes GunZoo $0.00. We provide this as a free service to all shooters to help them easily communicate all the modifications they've made to their guns so they don't have to re-type, or re-tell,, the same story a million times.

Shooting websites should be embracing one another and helping each other thrive, not shutting doors to commonsense integrations like this one.

They are very strange about advertising over there which is why they say it breaks the rules. They also removed my 3 Gun Nation Pro Series Avatar.

I think they may have it out for me as well so it may fly for other folks. I do bend the rules as often as I can on getting the word out about good guns and gear.

I just saw some changes were made! Playing with it now, but looks good!

We're pretty amped about this release. We overhauled the GunVault allowing more than one image of your gun. We also cleaned up the activity feed and made it easier to comment.
