Firearm schematics are exploded-view diagrams that reveal the internal components and construction of a gun. These technical illustrations help users identify, understand, and service each part—from barrels and firing pins to springs and slide assemblies.

The Firearm Resource Center gives you access to hundreds of downloadable schematics, so you can explore your firearm’s mechanics in detail without relying on guesswork.

 

Every firearm comes with an owner's manual, but it’s easy for them to get lost over time—especially if you buy used or inherit a gun. That’s why we’ve assembled one of the largest online collections of downloadable manuals from leading firearm brands.

Owner’s manuals provide firearm safety guidelines and operating instructions, making them essential for responsible gun ownership.

They cover important topics like proper loading/unloading procedures, recommended maintenance, safety mechanisms, and caliber compatibility.

Having access to your firearm’s original owner’s manual ensures you're using your gun safely, effectively, and in compliance with manufacturer recommendations.

 

Firearm spec sheets are product data sheets that provide detailed technical specifications for each firearm model. These sheets often include barrel length, overall dimensions, magazine capacity, weight, action type, materials used, and sight configuration.

Spec sheets outline the technical details of a firearm model, helping buyers and users compare features or verify parts compatibility. Whether you’re customizing your gun or trying to find the right holster, a spec sheet can provide quick, accurate answers.

We provide these documents so you can make informed decisions and understand your firearm inside and out.

 

From detailed diagrams and factory manuals to downloadable spec sheets, the Ammunition Depot Firearm Resource Center is your go-to hub for learning, maintaining, and troubleshooting your firearms.

Whether you're tuning up your rifle, identifying handgun components, or replacing worn parts, our growing archive puts trusted resources at your fingertips.
