You should look at the local, TV, Radio, News organization websites.
Here in Salt Lake City we have www.ksl.com and if you click on classified (top right corner) you can go down to: Firearms and hunting you can post any guns you have for sale.
I don't know what are your state laws but here is not an issue to list: sell or buy.

what kind of gun?

i would be very care full about telling MOPES on any site you have a firearm

old in being 1700s 1800s first WW! WW2 american euro type all makes a difference and a local gun range NOT store would be the best help take a photo dont drive around with it and ask local not on line someone if its worth anything might show up to get it -- just my take - jz

Take it to Antiques Roadshow...

The appraisers all run/work for stores and auction houses. They don't buy on the show, but they buy all the rest of the time.

Here is one:

Thanks for the excellent information! I have some ideas now for things to pursue.

It is not built before 1898.

Check the BATF website for curios and relics and you can determine if it's considered a C&R or not. I have many friends with Federal (all-state) C&R purchase licenses and I am in the process of getting one. I can transport firearms across state lines just can't go to Alaska through Canada.

If you want to display a photo I can put you in touch with someone who could give you info.

Then you decide what you want to do.

Good luck!

Do a google search on firearm forums. Plenty of advice there, you should be able to identify what you have and find out if it's a rare find. Online sales happen everyday, but there are hoops you have to jump through.
Here in Va there is a web site dedicated to firearm sales in-state, as here if you do a face to face sale between folks that live in Va, no paper work involved. And yes, the feds know about that!
Each state has it's own law on the subject. Go to your states web site, that info should be there.
Folks who live somewhere other than NJ or Cali don't worry about big brother.
When you find out what it is, let us know.

^ No, they just give you an estimate. Some unscrupulous types may lurk and try to cheaply purchase something from an unsuspecting person. Do some research on the web first.
At worst PM me.

If it's old enough it might not be considered a firearm but an artifact.

www.gunbroker.com or www.AuctionArms.com

I agree with gunbroker.com...


you can find and sell just about tnything there. The caveat is that if the gun was made after 1899 you cannot ship it to a regular person, but only to a FFL (Federal Firearms License) holder like a gun shop. If you sell your gun and have to ship it, get the buyer's FFL contact information like the gun shop you are sending it to and get a copy of the FFL sent to you before shipping the gun. any store owner has copies of his FFL just for this purpose...



Good luck!
