Im selling my military surplus arms and gear, whats the best and safest way to do it?
If I were going to sell off everything, I’d auction it off. Expect the auctioneer to take a 25% commission.
This will get your items in front a nicely sized audience (especially if you have a nice collection) and best of all, it’s absolutelt zero work on your end.
In your case you can employ CanadianGunNutz and do it all yourself. That way you can go through and compare what you have to like firearms and surplus, just make sure you have clear pics to provide and you make sure what you have compares to what you see for sale there. That will gauge what you can expect to glean and you can keep the cash. Make sure you check for a PAL as required. PM me if you want to talk more. You need to join the site and it's not so hard. I've dealt lots there...both ways, buy and sell.
CGN Terms of use and Guidelines
The firearms are sold just like any other firearm in Canada. A lot will depend on what you have, what, if any, accessories are included and it's condition. Plus a bit of where you are in Canada(shipping costs, for example, are set by the carrier, not you. And there are laws about who can be the carrier for firearms. Worse with restricted stuff and ammo. If there is ammo involved.). The kit is about what it is and condition too.
Most firearms forums have an "exchange" forum. Good, clear, reasonably sized, pictures matter.
Plan 'B' would be a gun show.
Above all, you need to know what stuff is worth, here. U.S. values mean nothing here. So the prices you see on the assorted U.S. sites don't count.
