Oklahoma City Old colt firearms

Hello all. I am new to the club and am looking to find some place to get my antique colt wheel guns and rifles appraised. I recently lost my father and am taking care of my mother now and was thinking about selling some of my collection so I can take my mother travelling to hopefully create some new memories for her to try to ease the painful ones and let her enjoy some of the time we have left on this earth. My father and I had collected most of our lives and have some very nice pieces but want a fair knowledgeable assessment so I know where to start. Looking for someone with experience in engraved firearms and rare colts. Thank you all and god bless and forgive me if I'm posting in the wrong place! Still trying to figure out how to use the computer and the site.

Don't know where to get them appraised, but welcome! Somebody will have some advice for you.

My standard reply to this kind of request is to research the Rock Island Auctions. They deal in many of these items.

These places can point you in the right direction. They also work on and some restore old colts or will know who can. There are several others out there but these are off the top of my head.

Thanks to all of you. Mostly first gen saa fully engraved and a few rifles like lightning and revolving rifle. Dad and I collected a few newer 1911s but mostly old stuff and winchesters

Snattlerake that was always my problem is I wanted to buy everything I liked which is a long list but now my moms happiness is way more important to me than my own. They sacrificed for me my whole life and Its my honor to do the same. I just wish I would have had more time with my dad to do more now that I'm older but god had a different plan and I trust him. I will try to post some pics of a few if nothing else just to share. Have a great day all!
