Our Process
Our Goal
At Lock, Stock & Barrel, we turn your firearms and collectibles into cash. Our goal is to provide you the most money possible for your items, while aiming for the highest overall customer satisfaction. We want this process to remain stress-free and painless for you. We take care of all the work, the online marketing, and the legal compliance; all you need to do is contact us to schedule a pickup or drop off of your collection, and await your proceeds.
How It Works
Easy Item Submission
We offer three convenient ways to get your items to us. Our primary service includes home pickup—we come directly to you, collect your items, and transport them securely back to Wyoming. Alternatively, you can mail your items to us, or if you're in the area, feel free to visit our shop for an in-person drop-off.
Expert Research & Photography
Once we receive your items, they are carefully evaluated by our research and description team. Our knowledgeable writers utilize extensive industry data to accurately identify, describe, and highlight every important detail of your firearms, including their unique history. After this, your guns are professionally photographed in our dedicated studio, ensuring high-quality images that showcase their best features.
Strategic Auction Placement
With detailed descriptions and stunning images in place, your firearms are listed for auction on the date we committed to when we first took possession. Each auction runs for 14 days, reaching over 3 million monthly site visitors and being promoted directly to our extensive network of passionate LSB buyers. Our SEO-optimized listings ensure high visibility in online searches, driving serious buyers to your auction. Additionally, we host three premier live auction events per year for high-value, collector-grade pieces.
Your Proceeds Are Sent
30 days after your auction closes, your proceeds will be ready. We will mail you a check along with your final paperwork, ensuring a seamless and transparent transaction.
