Want to buy: UNIQUE & LEGACY FIREARMS — FINDER’S FEE PAID


 


I’m actively looking to buy older, uncommon, and legacy firearms — especially pieces that don’t get much attention anymore. I genuinely enjoy preserving these older guns, keeping them in circulation, and eventually passing them down.


 


Up front: I pay a finder’s fee to anyone who connects me with a firearm or collection that I end up buying. Nothing complicated — just a straightforward thank-you for helping keep good guns out of pawn shops and scrap piles. The better the find, the better the finder’s fee.


 


I have a strong interest in combination and dual-caliber guns, including:


 


– .22 LR over .410  


– .22 Mag over .410  


– .22 over 20 gauge  


– .22 over 12 gauge  


– .22 Hornet over 20 gauge  


– .30-30 over 20 gauge  


– .223 over 12 gauge  


– Triple-barrel survival guns  


– Drillings and European combo guns  


 


Savage Model 24 variants, Springfield M6 Scout, Stevens or Savage combo guns, German/Austrian drillings, and pre-1980 steel-receiver firearms especially interest me.


 


I also actively look for uncommon gauges and traditional hunting guns:


 


– 10 gauge (big interest — SxS, single shots, waterfowl guns)  


– 16 gauge  


– 28 gauge  


– Older side-by-sides and classic doubles  


 


Beyond that, I’m always interested in true legacy firearms:


 


– Pre-64 Winchester Model 70 / 94 / 1894  


– Marlin JM-stamped rifles  


– Ruger No.1 / No.3  


– Colt revolvers (Python, Detective Special, SAA)  


– Smith & Wesson pinned & recessed revolvers  


– Military surplus with real history (M1 Garand, 1903, Mauser, Enfield, etc.)  


– Classic American and European bolt guns  


– Estate collections  


 


Condition is not a deal breaker. I look at everything from safe queens to well-used farm guns, inherited collections, projects, or estate finds. I also purchase entire collections and make the process simple and respectful.


 


I can generally beat what a local gun store offers on trade-in — and definitely what a pawn shop would pay. If you want maximum retail, listing it yourself may bring more, but I offer straightforward deals and save you the hassle.


 


Located in Ohio. Willing to travel for the right situation.


 


I work 12-hour night shifts, so if I don’t respond immediately I’m likely sleeping or with my kids — I will get back to you.

If you have something old, odd, uncommon, or meaningful — or know someone who does — I’d love to talk.
