General Accessories

The General Accessories feature was created in version 7. This is a central location for accessories that is used against multiple firearms or something that you are keeping in your personal inventory to replace something in the future or to add to a future firearm.

This is Separate from the Firearm Accessories since There are things that will come and/or sell with a firearm, And then there are things that will not since it is also used with another firearm that you do not intend to sell.

Like Scopes, Red Dots and Extra Magazine. I Tend to have older scopes lying around because I upgrade the scope that was used on the firearm so the scope is stored later on incase I get a rifle that needs a scope or if something breaks.

Same with Red Dot Optics, I have a spare Just in case one of the others break and I have to send those off to get fixed, in the mean time I can put on the new/extra red dot optic and continue to use that gun. Or If I get another firearm that I want an optic on, I have a spare and can just put it on that.

Magazines are the same, you can have 20 mags that you bought separate from a firearm, but you have a few guns that those magazines can be used in. So you can keep track of them in the General Accessories

Granted, you don’t have to keep it separate, if you mostly live in the firearm accessory section, you can link an accessory from the general accessories to a firearm(s).

This will create a copy of the details from the General to the Firearm accessories. However if you edited the General Accessories that change will also update the details for the linked accessories in the firearm accessories.

You can delete it from the Firearm accessory and not affect the general inventory. But if you deleted it from the general it will delete against all the linked firearms. If you wanted to permanently attach it to a firearm, then you can just move it.
