blksheep 466 Posted February 7, 2018 Has anyone purchased a seperate policy through the NRA or any other company. Looking to insure the guns and dont know if its more cost effective through the homeowners or something different. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1LtCAP 4,262 Posted February 7, 2018 i'd be interested in hearing opinions on this too....from people that aren't as paranoid as me about letting someone they don't know have info on what i may or may not own...... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
45Doll 5,873 Posted February 7, 2018 You might want to check out Collectibles Insurance. Given the dollar value of what I wanted to insure their quote was very reasonable. And when I acquired a 2nd residence they would cover all items regardless of where they were at any one time. No itemized list required either. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gunnz 49 Posted February 7, 2018 I recently looked into this. I have State Farm for my homeowners and they quoted me about $230 annually for a firearms that retailed at 12,500. they wanted an itemized list with serial numbers, I declined. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pew Pew Plates 358 Posted February 7, 2018 https://www.easterninsurance.com/insurance-quotes/personal-insurance/historic-firearms I use these guys, as an NRA member I pay I think $123/year plus or minus a few bucks. That gets you an unscheduled policy up to $30 or $40k (i forget) with a max single item payout of $3k Covers your guns in and out of the home from theft, fire, water etc so if your car is broken into and guns stolen, you're good. I do not have a claim experience with them (thankfully) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RecessedFilter 222 Posted February 8, 2018 I know a lot of guys have insurance but having a company know what you have and what it's worth and where it is is a little unnerving, no? Kinda like alarm companies and the employee who installs it knowing what the inside of the house looks like along with alarm secrets. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

capt14k 2,052 Posted February 8, 2018 Eastern Firearms Insurance. You only need to itemize firearms worth over $10k. Protects your firearms everywhere from theft, fire, water, malfunction, etc. $100,000 in insurance is approx $268 a year.Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I did not have to itemize what I had for insurance purposes on the rider. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I used to have them for motorcycle insurance...I didn't realize they had insurance for anything other than Moto. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have 2 riders on my insurance - one for my wife's Engagement ring, another for my firearms. Riders are an add-on provision to a basic insurance policy that provides additional benefits at an additional cost. Standard insurance policies don't cover firearms and some Jewelry... so I added it.

capt14k 2,052 Posted February 8, 2018 Riders to your homeowners policy is probably the second worst choice other than no insurance at all. Read the fine print. Eastern Firearms Insurance is what every large collector has. Much less expensive than the NRA Insurance. I used to use Chubb for my watch and wife's jewelery but I switched to Eastern for that as well. It was almost half the price.Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
