My father has an old .410 shotgun and an old .22 and he would like to know what they are worth. Are there any good places in MD to take them and have them appraised?
He is interested in selling them, but interest only results in a sale if the deal is good enough for him. If the guy's offer is too low and my dad doesn't want to sell, does he get charged for the appraisal at that point?
I've used these guys in the past. Reasonable fees. Gun shop is downstairs.

As they said, I would search gunbroker or gunsamerica for a price range before paying for an appraisal, although an appraisal is useful for insurance purposes.
