Disposing of an estate gun collection

 

Whether an estate has one gun or hundreds of guns, our survivors may be left in an awkward legal situation when it comes to disposition of the aforementioned.  They may receive nothing or only pennies on the dollar of actual value. 

I ran across this GREAT article over at GUNS SAVE LIFE and decided that my projected longevity (based on our family history and the recent passing of my older brother (2-years my senior)) merits prompt action on my part.  Oh, I'll hold a few firearms close at hand for as long as my physical and mental conditions allow, but the bulk of my (albeit modest) collection is soon to be destined for sale or auction via a reputable, high profile, FFL dealer.  I hope to have the bulk of this project completed by the end of year 2023.  The hardest part will be putting my sentiments aside.

Another difficulty will be selling those damn heavy ass gun safes that I have.  
MAYBE I CAN BE BURIED IN ONE OF THEM!

Durn them guns.
You got to know when to hold them
You got to record how you sold them
(Welcome to Illinois, bitches!)

  2. When I eventually cash in my chips any firearms I still have in my possession become the property of my children. They can split them however they choose.
    My guess is their husband's will be the ones actually making the choices. And that's ok by me.

    1. Hey Dan,

      The Daughter and the Granddaughter both live across the border in Wisconsin and that creates some transfer legalities and expenses we would have to navigate. Neither of them are into guns. None of my brothers are into guns. I do have a fave nephew who lives nearby here in Illinois so I may just let him choose what he wants and legally transfer those guns over to him ahead of time.
