    Considering selling this double barrel shotgun that was past down. Other than online, such as Gunbroker, are there better avenues to sell antique firearms? Thanks for any advice. Enjoy the pictures.

    From Germany, brought back from WWII. Damascus barrel.

    It sits in the closet, not one for displaying on walls. Also, not too sentimental.

    Wow nice,sure hope you researched that shotgun so you can get what its worth.Gunbroker is one of the most looked at gun sites,so that's you best bet.Or an Auction that sells only FINE shotguns,but then the cost too sell it goes up.
