Many of the better-known auction companies will come to you and consign them, sell them over time at market value and cut you a check. Some will buy up front, depends on how fast you’re wanting to go and how much time you have.

Alternatively, post an inventory here and let the collectors have a shot at them…a little more work though to take pictures and manage that.

Group them in your photos by twos or fours, & it shouldn’t be too much of a chore.  Most important thing to do is decide upon your “very best price”–don’t ask for offers, which wastes everyone’s time.  You can estimate value by checking “sold” prices of the same guns on GunBroker, bearing in mind that all such auction prices represent the top end of the market.

Would like to see an inventory list of your guns. This is the best place to start.
