Auction, but no guaranteed prices and figure on giving up a third of the sold value. Always figured that was a rip off.

Post the list in the EE with reasonable prices for pickup only and they will go fast.

Agreed, but even quicker if he was willing to ship. Although finding boxes and actually shipping them would be a bit of a hassle.
He could sell them pretty cheap and still make more money than selling them to a gunshop.

X2 plus if he sells on here he gets all the profit, cgn is obviously a broader audience, I know a lot of people who'd be willing to travel to cowtown for the right gun, myself included.

Dale is great to work with, and his fees are very minimal. Less than half of what the auction route would charge you.
X2 for Shooters Choice.

We've been handling large consignments and estate sales at MilArm routinely since 1963. I would love the opportunity to work with you on this, should the need arise. Shoot me a PM if you are interested!

If you are happy with getting 50 cent dollars on these guns, selling to a dealer is the easiest way to go.
