With 17+ years operating through major market shifts—the 2012–13 handgun and "assault weapon" surge, the 2013–15 ammunition shortages, and the post-2016 industry downturn—they've guided thousands on:
They stay current on both federal regulations and state-by-state changes, especially as clients relocate from or spend winters in different jurisdictions.
Modern Firearms & Accessories: They acknowledge the market has been commoditized by online retailers and the "Amazon effect"—new firearms, ammunition, and accessories are best sourced through competitive online channels. They encourage clients to take advantage of these resources.
Classic & Collectible Firearms: This is where they add real value. They sell dozens of diverse classic and collectible firearms monthly through online auctions, giving them real-time insight into market trends and true values. Past market inefficiencies—inflated prices at gun shows and small shops—have been replaced by transparent, data-driven valuations.
