Carolina firearm appraisals is an unclaimed, website-backed FAIR profile listed for Raleigh with broad Antiques and Personal Property specialty language, Antiques and Estate service categories, and an Estate and probate routing signal. The linked site narrows that label to firearm appraisal: its homepage describes appraisal work for estates, insurance claims, bankruptcy, charitable contributions, back taxes, divorce cases, fair market retail value, historical value, insurance replacement value, estate settlement value, liquidation value, and tax-deduction or gift value. The site says the service is based out of Raleigh, travels throughout North Carolina, and comes to the client to appraise firearms when bringing many guns to a business location is impractical. It states that services include a detailed four-page appraisal and a photo of each firearm, with an optional retained copy for seven years in secure storage, and says the appraiser can help arrange sale through a Raleigh-area auction house after an appraisal. The profile page names Brian Hurst, describes firearms buying and trading experience, Gander Mountain in-store firearms-buyer work, Raleigh-area auction purchasing, more than 30 years advising on gun value, and American Gunsmithing Institute firearm-appraiser credential language. FAIR does not show a fee statement, USPAP education detail, separate credential field, or claimed profile control, so confirm credential status, fees, report purpose, safety and handling logistics, sale-referral terms, and whether the assignment requires a formal written report.
Source-backed fit is firearm and gun appraisal, including individual guns, collections, estates, insurance replacement, divorce, bankruptcy, liquidation, charitable contribution, tax, historical-value, provenance, and auction-sale routing contexts. Confirm directly before treating this as a general antiques, furniture, art, jewelry, or household-contents appraiser.
Before outreach, state the report purpose and whether the firearms are individual pieces or a large collection. Ask about in-person travel, documentation, photos, safety and handling expectations, fee basis, credential status, and any auction-sale referral relationship.
