<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bev aka thelmasstuff, post: 4392492, member: 23&quot;]I don&#039;t know what state you&#039;re in, but in Massachusetts you can&#039;t buy or sell guns without a gun license.&nbsp; Here, when someone who owned a gun passes away, we are often asked to unlock gun cabinets.&nbsp; If the person who inherited doesn&#039;t have a license, we require that someone from the local sporting goods shop be present to legally handle any firearms.&nbsp; Also, as a person who doesn&#039;t have a lot of experience with guns, you should get an expert to clean it.&nbsp; Rayo gave good advice, but it&#039;s best to let someone who knows what they&#039;re doing to take care of it.&nbsp; Local gun shops may be able to value it, but you should get more than one.&nbsp; I inherited a couple of antique guns from my cousin.&nbsp; The first place told me one was a repro only worth about $350 and they&#039;d &quot;take it off my hands.&quot;&nbsp; The second place pretty much reiterated that.&nbsp; Luckily, I know a local collector through the historical society who came and looked at it.&nbsp; It is actually an 18th century Danish Dragoons flintlock and worth considerably more.&nbsp; It&#039;s now in my safe deposit box to be given to my son.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
