# coreSTORE - FFL: Creating a Firearm Record

In this guide, we will cover the steps and required fields for creating a firearm record in coreSTORE. coreSTORE allows you to establish the overall model and track individual serial number records under that model.

1. Navigate to the **Inventory** menu and select the **Items** sub-menu to open your items list.

12. In the **Item Settings** area for a firearm, ensure the following:

* **Item Has Serial Number** is checked (this should default based on the type you have established for the item).
    
* If the product requires age verification, enable that feature and establish the age limit.
    
* Check **Requires Customer**, as every firearm transaction must have a customer associated with it.
