    Selling is easy in IN to an IN resident who is a proper person. But it may not be quick.

    So if you want fast money sell them all to a pawn shop/gun shop.

    If you want max money, and don't mind driving to meet a buyer, waiting in a parking lot, etc then you can probably sell them over a few weeks by using INGO classifieds. The questions then are how much are you spending in gas and wasting in time?

    I sold some guns a while back, got pretty much my asking prices for each one. But it took several weeks, which I was fine with. Longest drive was 2 hours one way and a half-tank of fuel, but I worked it out so I sold 2 guns that day (both at full asking price) in the same location and met up with an old friend there for lunch too. Both of the guns sold were fairly expensive guns too, so again, if they had been $200 or $300 rifles it might not have been worth the drive. But I drove home with nearly $2k in my pocket so 4 hours of drive, and a long lunch with my friend made it worth the trip.

    Factor in your gas $$$ and drive time lost and make sure its worth it to you to make the deals.

    My biggest issue is finding what they're worth
    Search the gun sale sites for similar recently sold items.

    Search forums dedicated to the type of gun you will be selling.

    Search the INGO classifieds for similar items.

    To get an unbiased valuation from an appraiser you might have to pay. I don't know of any, but maybe someone else here does.

    Tell us what you have, and we might could give you an idea, but the ideas above are solid.

    By the way, I was absent a good part of January, and didn't get a chance to welcome you and other new members. So, a big welcome to all new members of the NWI family!

    Also, to all NWI members that have posted about physical (and mental) issues, I wish you all the best, with quick recoveries.

    If someone does know of a reputable appraiser, please let me know. With my dad passing I’ve inherited quite a bit.
