Armory
Owned platforms and accessories with role (home defense / field / trainer / accessory) and status active, sold, or traded. Mission inventory — not a display case.
AIR is Melvin’s system of record for a home-defense / preparedness armory — platforms and accessories you own, a ranked acquisition queue with purchase-brief research packs, consumable supplies with reorder lines, orders you can receive into stock, and short readiness notes. It is not a collector showcase, not a grail wall, and not a public catalog.
When something breaks, runs empty, or never arrived, AIR should already know. The desk tracks what is in the armory, what is next to buy (with research done before checkout), which supply lines are below reorder, and which Amazon (or other) orders still need receiving into stock.
Queue seeds come from Melvin’s stated YouTube / Amazon home-defense list — verify local law and shipping eligibility before purchasing. AIR does not give legal advice.
Five steps from “I might need this” to “the armory can feed it tonight.”
Chrome language is Armory / Queue / Supplies / Orders / Notes — deliberately not Collection / Wishlist / Grail.
hydra_m4.Owned gear with role tags and active / sold / traded filters. Graduate from the queue or Add owned directly after a private-party pickup. Photos and price_paid are optional — readiness beats spreadsheet vanity.
This is inventory for preparedness. If it left the property, mark sold or traded so the desk stays honest.
Six tiles: armory count, queue depth, supply lines, low-stock alerts, open orders, and Hydra golden-kit status. Below: kit gaps, open orders, low-stock list, top three acquisition ranks, recent notes.
Empty states point you to Add or Queue — never a blank void. Melvin ACL gates the app; this public page only teases the desk.
Eighteen unique targets — Umarex Hammer once. Price bands and Amazon search hints (no invented ASINs). Open an item for the Purchase brief: role fit, pros/cons, HD rating, reviews, how-tos, supply-gap checklist.
Mark purchased graduates atomically into the Armory. New adds start as
research stub until an agent refresh fills the pack.
Every Hydra golden-path line carries qty + reorder_at: biodegradable BBs, LiPo + balance charger, midcaps, speedloader, ANSI eye pro, silicone oil. Log −use / +restock; events keep the audit trail.
Taxonomy prefers plan names (ammo_bbs, power,
magazines, ppe, maintenance, propellant classes).
Statuses: ordered → shipped → received (or cancelled). Receive applies
supply deltas and creates owned gear from line FKs. Sample order
AIR-GOLDEN-SAMPLE ships with the Hydra kit for desk smoke tests.
Field / function notes attach to gear or stand alone. Optional 1–5 rating and would-rely-on flag. Write what failed in the cold, what magazine fed cleanly, what FPS / chrono the field requires — not dial rarity essays.
Every queue item detail opens with role fit, pros/cons, provisional home-defense rating, 2+ review links, how-to links, and a supply-gap checklist. Buy Amazon / alt links come second so impulse does not outrun homework.
Hydra’s pack is status ready with Evike / YouTube / forum search links. Vendor-heavy rows may start as stub until refreshed.
Queue empty → CTA to Add. No low-stock → calm kit-ready banner. No open orders → hint that sample golden-path order seeds on first schema ensure. Armory filter with zero rows says so plainly and offers Add owned gear. Public landing always shows the full mission even before Melvin signs in.
Rank 14 in the acquisition queue with research status ready.
Chosen because it is Amazon-shippable AEG PDW gear — the easiest complete
munitions / power / magazine / PPE chain without HPA fill infrastructure.
Kit supplies use kit_tag=hydra_m4; the dashboard reports kit readiness
when any line sits at or below reorder.
Melvin allowlist only. Unauthenticated hits redirect to login; other accounts get 403.
Public health stays at /air/api/health.
Melvin-only armory desk: queue, research packs, owned gear, supplies, orders, notes. Not a collector vanity wall. Health stays cheap. If this page disagrees with the signed-in app, trust the app — the product contract and tests enforce that rule. Not legal advice — verify local law before purchasing anything on the queue.
