Sell, Trade or Consign Your Gun
Got a firearm you no longer shoot? We buy most any gun. Bring it to either of our stores and we will tell you what it is worth and walk you through your options.
Three ways to move your gun
| Trade-in credit | Outright purchase | Consignment | |
|---|---|---|---|
| What you get | Credit toward your next purchase | A check, out the door | You choose the price; paid after it sells |
| Speed | Same visit | Same visit | Whenever it sells |
| Best when | You want something else from us | You want to be done today | You believe your gun is worth more than book value |
How we set a value
We pay for a bluebook pricing service, so we are looking at current market values, not guesses. Trade-in and outright offers are based on those values.
Consignment: set your own price
If you think your gun is worth more than the book number, consignment lets you name the price. When it sells, you get the larger share of the sale price.
- Paid by check: you receive 80% of the sale price.
- Paid in store credit: you receive 90% of the sale price.
We do not post a maximum consignment time.
How it works
- Bring the gun in, unloaded.
- We look it over and check current values.
- Choose trade-in, outright sale, or consignment.
- Walk out with store credit or a check, or leave the gun on consignment.
For one or two modern firearms, just bring them in to either store. For a large collection or antique firearms, an appointment may be needed, and we may keep the guns longer to appraise them.
Bring the whole package
Anything from the original purchase helps the value you get: the original box, extra magazines and any paperwork. Please make sure every gun is unloaded.
