    Firearm Valuations

    Apologise if already been asked/covered
    I need to get my Custom BAR valued according to Cameron Sports who imports Browning
    Was hoping on some assist from them and Belgium customs factory - but appear to have hit a wall

    Is there Gun/Rifle Valuer’s out there and how would one go about doing it ??

    Drop a zero and I be happy
    But it should be more going on research on USA Forums etc
    I might as well queeze as much of my 40 odd years Tax payments back to me as I can

    It's more about - how do I do it - take it to be looked at and thats the last time I see it ???
    Then take what they offer ??

    Surely must be others in same boat with something not standard and $$ stated ??

    Take pictures of it and give them to the press on USB drives when you go in. Bring it in a transparent case and show it to the journos on your way in. Let them see where the horse is pulling us all.

    Isn't there supposed to be a list of police approved valuers for this process? and a list of police approved gunsmiths for any modifications needed.
    Just a slopy retrobate

    Yes Im not surprised, but i would be waiting for that list. Little point in getting a valuation only to be told its not accepted and to get another from an approved valuer.

    Might be there as well getting a valuation on my Schmeisser, as I’m sick of calling the 0800 number to get it listed.
