** As of Feb 27, 2017 I'll be working on the user interface & experience design for the app. If you are interested in following the app design, all live updates will be pushed to RangeBuddy.
** As of March 4, 2017 I'll be starting to code a live prototype of the designs I have made. I'll likely do a private beta test once it is built to get some feedback.
Keep in mind, the app name & logo will most likely change or be updated. They're placeholders for now.

So.. I've been thinking about mocking up some designs for a mobile application for firearm enthusiasts to network and socialize. Would you be interested in using something like this on your iPhone (and android, later..) ?
Some features to give you an idea:
Keep in mind, this is just off of the top of my head for now. If there is a decent amount of people who are interested in something like this, I would not mind building a prototype and doing a beta test, launching the app, etc.
Let me know what you think!
Cheers,
Zach

Some features to give you an idea:
- Incorporate ranges across the US. (ex: post pictures of your day at the range, review the range, etc.)
- Nearby FFL's (ex: Get a feel for which FFL's have the best reputation, reviews, etc. in your area.)
- User Profiles (ex: Username, Firearms, Ranges you have been to & how you did for each recorded day at that range, etc.)
- Nearby Ranges (ex: Shows nearby ranges; each range will have a list of formatted posts - each are different users posting pictures, stats, etc. about their day at that range. These posts will show on a users profile for each time they record a day at the range.)
- Firearms (ex: User's, if willing, can post images & statistics of their firearms OR they can anonymously post photo's of their firearms.)
- Your device will NEVER request access to the GPS to track you. (For your user profile you will enter your zip code and that is all that is tied to your account in terms of location services.)
- You are NOT REQUIRED to provide any personal information. (You will login with a username & password, with an email to verify users and recover account passwords. This allows you to remain as anonymous as you'd like.)
Keep in mind, this is just off of the top of my head for now. If there is a decent amount of people who are interested in something like this, I would not mind building a prototype and doing a beta test, launching the app, etc.
