The Problem We Solve
European shooters face real challenges that no existing platform addresses. Here is what we set out to fix.
Fragmented Marketplaces
Before BGUN
Shooters had to juggle dozens of national websites, Facebook groups, and forum classifieds to find firearms across Europe.
With BGUN
BGUN consolidates listings from armories and private sellers across EU countries in one trusted place.
Complex Compliance
Before BGUN
Navigating EU Firearms Directive 2021/555 and national regulations was confusing, with each country having different rules for buying, selling, and transporting.
With BGUN
BGUN provides clear, country-specific guidance to help you understand the rules — and always points you to your national authority for verification.
Disconnected Tools
Before BGUN
Shooters had no single place to track their collections, log range sessions, or keep their paperwork organized.
With BGUN
BGUN unifies collection tracking, shooting logs, and community into a single connected experience.
Disconnected Community
Before BGUN
Shooters had no central place to track collections, log range sessions, and connect with other enthusiasts across Europe.
With BGUN
BGUN unifies collection management, shooting logs, community forums, and marketplace into a single connected experience.
Our Values
Safety First
Every feature, policy, and decision is designed with firearm safety as the foundation. Legal and transparent trading comes first — always.
European Unity
Firearm regulations vary across EU member states. BGUN provides clear, up-to-date information on each country's rules while never giving legal advice — you always verify with your national authority.
Trust & Transparency
Reviewed business accounts, transparent ratings and honest information create a marketplace where every participant can make informed decisions.
Community Driven
Built by shooters, for shooters. BGUN was created because the European shooting sports community deserved a platform that truly understands their needs.
Our Journey
The Beginning
BGUN was founded in 2019 by shooters who experienced firsthand the lack of a unified, compliant European marketplace.
The Challenge
Work stalled because of the difficulty and opacity of firearms regulation across Europe. Understanding the legal landscape took time and persistence.
The Relaunch
With AI and a bigger team, BGUN starts again — building a compliant, transparent platform with real, verified information.
Everything in One Platform
BGUN combines what used to require five different apps.
Marketplace
Buy and sell firearms, accessories, and ammunition across EU countries.
Collection Tracker
Catalog your firearms, track values, and share your collection with the community.
Shooting Logs
Log range sessions, track ammunition usage, and monitor your progress over time.
Community
Connect with shooters, join events, and participate in forums across Europe.
Armory Finder
Discover local gun shops, ranges, and armories with reviews and directions.
