We know the loss of a family member is a difficult time. Realco Guns can help with the details of firearm inheritance like registration and other matters. On occasion we meet heirs who are averse to gun ownership and want to liquidate the collection as quickly as possible. In those cases Realco Guns may offer to purchase the collection in its entirety or offer to broker the collection in parts. We are available to discuss either option as needed.
A fair appraisal of gun collections, especially antique or historic guns, is ocassionally necessary to establish value or to reach an equitable distribution. Realco Guns offers written appraisals acceptable for probate or insurance purposes at a cost of 3% to 5%, depending on the size and complexity of the firearms collection.
Gun collections can represent a sizable part of an investment portfolio. Realco Guns can evaluate the winners from the losers and advise how to proceed for your collection to maximize its earning power.
We can facilitate the marketing of antique and collector grade firearms and special interest guns through our nationwide brokerage service. Our 20% fee covers appraisal, research, photography, marketing and promotion. A small listing fee, shipping and administration are additional.
Realco Guns buys guns of all types that are in good or better condition for an honest wholesale price. After a thorough inspection we sell our used guns backed by a one year repair warranty.
Realco Guns is a Federal Firearms Licensed Seller (FFL 01) and also a Federal Firearm Licensed Manufacturer (FFL 07). The additional license was needed to satisfy the failed Maryland Ballistic Fingerprint scheme. Our state spent multiple millions of tax dollars to collect, analyze and warehouse fired shellcase samples from every handgun sold in the state during that time. Since many gun companies did not provide the needed sample we became manufacturers and gathered the sample ourselves so that our cutomers would have access to broader selection. No crimes were solved by this useless system and even the Maryland State Police was against it. The only result was as a sound bite provided to the reelection campaigns of politicians in Annapolis. In 2015 the requirement was finally dropped from state law.
