Firearms, Shotguns, Airguns, Arms and Militaria
We hold four firearms and militaria auctions each year and offer a free appraisal service. Our sales feature popular brands including BSA, Webley, Enfield and Colt, alongside Section 58 antique guns, edged weapons, uniforms and medals.
Militaria is the term for weapons, uniforms and other military equipment, alongside historical artefacts. Some people collect for the monetary value, others for the history.
Our specialist sales feature popular brands including BSA, Webley, Enfield and Colt, alongside swords, edged weapons and daggers, Section 58 antique guns, re-loading equipment both vintage and modern, uniforms, ephemera and medals.
Small pieces are often more than they appear. A WWII helmet is a good example: built to last, often worn by specific units identifiable to allies and enemies, and as a result one of the more valuable items in militaria collections.
Authenticity matters. For buyers, it is the first thing to check; for items we list, we check it before they go into a sale.
Our specialist Chris Large is a member of three rifle clubs and shoots regularly.
