Standard homeowners policies will provide only very limited coverage for firearms and other collectibles. You need a specific rider or free standing policy to have good insurance coverage. If your policy requires specific listing and/or valuation of some of your guns, when was the last time you updated it? You may be under-insured. √ Have you considered a safe/vault to protect from fire, water and theft? Not all safes are designed to protect from all these risks and if you can move your safe around, a thief can carry it away.

Does your family know where they are should something happen to you? Does your will still handle your collection as you wish? You do have a will don�t you? Does your executor know how to best dispose of your collection? √ Reconsider and update your want list. Are there guns you might trade or sell to obtain others you want more? |
