All of them uninsured and I can't talk sense into him. His feeling is, "I'm not disclosing what I own, then big brother will find them and take them..." I can see some sense of Chicken Little here, but that's pretty shortsighted. I just wonder if anyone else refuses to insure guns out of paranoia? BTW this is his sole source of wealth, no 401K or retirement plan. Can't fix crazy sometimes.

With Gun and Trophy you only have to specifically list guns valued in excess of $10k.
