I am trying to put a value on my collection for insurance reasons. Not really sure what to put down for price. Hoping you guys could help give me some estimates. I am following some similar auctions on Gun broker, but more input the better.

SA 3.6mil SA Rebuild with 65 barrel, and SA rebuild marked stock.

SA 4.3 100% correct. USGI Wood

SA 6.09 Mixmaster-NM'53 LMR barrel

Win-13 FG. Its a field grade :) USGI Wood

HRA 5.5 Service Grade. USGI Wood


Thanks for the help

When I had a few hundred firearms to insure, I estimated at the high end of the retail market for all of them. I used Collectibles Insurance. Who do you have?

I would say:

3.6 mil $1100

4.3 mil $1900

6 mil $2100

Win 13 - no clue. Wouldn't own a WRA garand if they were free

HRA $1200

I'm probably low on that 3.6 mil, now that I think of it. Maybe more in the $1400 range.

When I was shopping it, NO ONE came even close to Collectibles Insurance as far as rates go.

3. HRA 5,645,0XX- CMP correct grade
4. WRA 159,7XX- CMP wood and criterion bbl all else Winchester
5. SA 1 million something- CMP field grade

All others:
6. 1940 K98k- 660 steyr mixmaster
7. Legit 91/30 sniper- Tula don't remember the year
8. Bavarian Saginaw SG rural police, flip sight type 1 band
9. 1898 Krag 118989- very good for being 115. Solid stock and stamps
10. 91/30- ex-dragoon from 1922 IZZY
