I have two handguns, an authentic antique which belonged to my grandpa are EM Reilly Double barrel pistol and JR Cooper Pepperbox percussion revolver with English ring trigger. Can anyone in this forum tell me what wold be their value if I need to sell them?
Please don't read this as an advertorial to sell anything. I am just trying to find out its value. Decision to sell hasn't yet been finalized.
Thanks.

Re: Enquiry on antique handguns
Can you post pictures? The first thing to do is find out exactly what you have and what condition it is in, and the best way to do that is in person with someone knowledgeable but some clear and detailed pictures, especially of any markings or stampings is a good start.

Re: Enquiry on antique handguns
Hi, all.
My father holds a crop protection license and the weapon endorsed is an E. M. Reilly 12 bore double barrel shotgun. It is currently not working but can be repaired, he also has 24 cartridges. Can anyone help me to estimate price and sell it to someone interested in buying, either a license holder or a licensed dealer or maybe a licenced vintage gun collector...

Re: Enquiry on antique handguns
in india the value of vintage is less.
truly speaking after the cancellation of third weapon from license,piles of 12 bore guns are stacked and value is reduced
