WWI, WWII, Cold War Firearms and Historic Military Items
Many people own historic military firearms or collectibles without realizing their true value. Sometimes these items were purchased years ago and tucked away in a safe. Other times they are discovered unexpectedly when a family member inherits a collection.
Over the years we have spoken with countless collectors and families who simply wanted to know one thing. What is this worth?
At MyFullAuto.com, we are always happy to help. We offer free, no-obligation appraisals for machine guns and historic military collectibles. If you have something and are curious about its value, we are glad to take a look.
What We Commonly See
The items people contact us about cover a wide range of military history. Some come from long-time collectors, while others appear when families begin sorting through estates.
Transferable Machine Guns
Transferable machine guns are some of the most interesting and valuable firearms in the United States. Because federal law stopped new civilian registrations in 1986, the number that can be legally owned today is fixed. That limited supply has made them highly collectible.
Some examples we frequently evaluate include:
Thompson submachine guns
UZI submachine guns
MAC-10 and MAC-11 machine guns
M16 and AR-15 conversions
HK machine guns and registered sears
Browning 1919 and other belt-fed guns
Reising Model 50 submachine guns
Many owners purchased these decades ago when prices were much lower. It is not unusual for people to be surprised by how much values have changed.
WWI and WWII Military Firearms
Historic firearms from the World Wars continue to attract serious collectors. These pieces represent an important part of military history.
We regularly see items such as:
Bren guns
MG34 and MG42 machine guns
MP40 submachine guns
Sten guns
Browning Automatic Rifles (BAR)
M3 Grease Guns
Japanese and other wartime machine guns
Condition, originality, and historical markings can make a big difference in value.
Cold War Military Weapons
Cold War firearms are also becoming increasingly collectible. Many of these designs shaped modern military small arms.
Examples include:
HK G3 and HK33 platforms
HK53 and MP5 variants
Early AK-pattern firearms
Various NATO military firearms
Collectors appreciate both the engineering and the history behind these weapons.
Why People Ask for an Appraisal
Most people who contact us are simply looking for information. Common situations include:
Inherited collections
Families sometimes discover military firearms after a relative passes away and want to understand what they have.
Long-time owners
Collectors who bought firearms many years ago are often curious about current values.
Thinking about selling
Some owners want a realistic idea of what their item might bring before deciding whether to sell or keep it.
There Is No Cost and No Obligation
We provide these appraisals because we enjoy helping people learn more about historic firearms. Sometimes people decide to sell, but many simply want to understand what they have.
Either way is perfectly fine.
