    Obtaining insurance appraisals for odd rifles.

    I have a couple rare and presumably valuable Garands and I need a stated value for my insurance man. Rifles like these rarely change hands so there isn't much to draw on from that standpoint. I know what they are worth to me but that is not good enough.

    Does anyone have a recommendation for an appraiser that an insurance company would recognize?

    Thanks, Dan.

    Smile Appraisal

    I would think any professional appraiser would charge for the service. I have seen numerous ads in the MAN AT ARMS magazine for individuals and firms that offer this service. I have no experience with any type of firearm insurance.

    Thanks, I will check those places. I expect to pay for a professional appraisal.
    A free one would hardly hold water for the insurance man....

    Just FYI, my Hartford policy (AARP) did not require an appraisal. Have to list them on a "jewelry/art" schedule, but you state the value. I know NRA has some coverage for firearms, but am not familiar with how theirs works as to value.
    HTH.
