I am looking to sell several of my father-in-law's guns on behalf of my mother-in-law. He passed away a few years ago and she would like to get them out of the house. She gave me first dibs, but several remain...does anyone have recommendations for or personal experience with a reputable broker or shop in the Dallas area who will offer fair value?

Improper use of the OB. OP. Fifteen yards. Repeat 1st down.
How about posting them on this thread?

I was massively disappointed when I opened this thread
Thanks for offering a picked over list of guns without a list or picture! You better post tits to smooth this over, FAST!
Was very excited when finally one of these types of threads mentions DFW. Now this tune keeps running through my head:

Dropped her off early but I didn't go home
Why would you create a thread saying guns for sale then never say what is for sale? This isn't 'Nam, there are rules! You better apologize to the OB. Not cool man.
This was a disappointment
try purple heart pawn.
although many posters here would give u fair value and often more than any store would

Gun stores are in the business to make money so they will typically offer you about 40-60% of what Blue Book values are. Collectors and individuals will give you more $$$ as far as fair market value. I do not know of any firearm brokers other than firearm auction houses/business's.
You need to do what most of us on here do. Do your own research and determine the value of the firearm and then decide what you are willing to take for said firearm and sell it. You will get a lot more for the firearm and will be able to give your mother in law more money that way.
Pretty simple really. Either you want to sell them your self for fair market value and get the most dollars for them or just get rid of them by selling them to a dealer and letting them make the money on them.
If you want a dealer recommendation I would say page EyeGuy on here......he is the best in my opinion, he knows what he is doing and he will definitely treat you fairly and honestly.

Thanks for the shout out. I read the op and was going to say just about everything you did. I actually avoid buying guns from Texags posters in the store setting because of what I have to buy for. In fact, I pretty much always tell them to put them up here.
The best value you will get is by putting them up here. If you do want some help on pricing, let me know. If you post at a price I tell you is fair, I always chime in with some support when I've seen the guns. Whenever someone posts a gun up and I chime in, we have talked about condition and value on them.

Text me at 979-eight two o-l87o. Gary. If you would like to sell them
Sorry guys...OP here. They're older guns, didn't know if there would be any interest here. I'll go over to my MIL's this afternoon and make a list of what's available and post it. If there's local private buyer interest here, that would be great!
Post description of each and a pic of each one. Go to gunbroker.com if you want a price range
Just text me. Nobody else has the money to buy them
Older guns may even be more valued around here depending on condition. You might also want to cross post on classifieds board as well.
I will take them all.

Oh. You must be new here.
Is it too early to start the bidding
Okay...have a pic of the guns. Pretty sure I can't post it though. Any assistance?
Send to me by email. In my profile
I'm in Plano and am potentially interested, depending on what you show us.
SteveBott is helping me out with a pic...there are 2 guns in the picture NOT for sale. The black/chrome .22 on the far right and the .30-30 just right of center. Everything else is fair game. If you have questions, shoot me an email at jasongunter13@gmail.com

@EyeGuy...in the process of researching each online to determine fair ballpark values.
Nice collection. I'm in DFW and might be interested depending on how they are chambered.
Cool
Details on the converted flintlock, the A5, BAR (caliber), and the two SxS's. And the Marlin, in case you change your mind.
BTW, the Nylon 66 in black and chrome are somewhat rare.
