Whenever the sale of one of, or all of, your gun(s) involving an auction house (or any third party for that matter) there is a contract to be filled out and signed. Some of these contracts are more than one page - sometimes three or four and often contain fine print or dimly printed caveats on the reverse side and any caveat or condition that applies will need your initials... Be ABSOLUTELY certain you have read the entire contract and any questions you may have are answered to your satisfaction.

I have great respect for Josh, so he'd be my first choice selling double shotguns. If you are choosing between RIAC or Morphys it might depend on the type of guns you have, but others with real experience (not just opinions) would be better able to advise you. I've bought from Gunbroker, but never an upper end gun.

I have supreme faith in Josh too... just for the record.

I would also consider Poulin's, they are very professional in my opinion.

Have bought from all of them! The large houses do not have the one on one you get with Josh, The piece you are looking for might be with a large firm, so be it, But for Sales Josh is your man! Just my opinion, Gary

Nothing against him as I do not know him , but for my own liquidation I’ll do it myself thru GB or GI . I’ve already moved a couple hundred that were in my accumulation so I see no reason not to handle the rest .
