Just inherited a bunch of old guns, that really have little value. Old Single barrels, doubles, few worn out 22 pumps, etc... Really do not want to have to try and sell them individually. Are there any decent charities they can be donated to? Appreciate any ideas you fine folks might have.
Thanks,
Some mornings, it just does not feel worth it to chew through the straps!~

Big city gun buy backs.. The idiots will give you $$$ way past the junker's value.
I replace valve cover gaskets every 50K, if they don't need them sooner...

Wait til a cop buyback happens and sell them there if the voucher is good enough. Or give them away to the boys out troop.

Just sell 'em.
Put an ad up here, plus shipping and they will go someone that will teach their kids to shoot, or give one to a grandkid.

Heck donate them to me!
I will echo what was posted above, some of those old pump 22s may surprise you. Have someone knowledgeable take a look at them.

I plan on putting mine on consignment. It costs ~ 15%, but you don't have the hassle, and you don't lose all that much. I'll echo what has already been mentioned about the 22 pumps, and the doubles may be worth something as well.
If you love someone set them free
If they come back no one else liked them
Set them free again

Why don't you inventory them with make, model, description, condition, etc. and post here on the Fire.

Would be interested in knowing what you have! Same here. I just happen to be in the market for an old 12 ga. or 20 ga. single shot, that is safe to shoot. Dont care what the choke is. Dont have to be pretty, the uglier the better. If it will break apart, that's great. Ship it in 2 separate boxes and you dont have to go thru a FFL (I believe thats right. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong)

People are always trying to dump Winchester crap built before 1964. Don't be a sucker. Let me sift that out for you.

Ain't tryin to be a stick in the mud but I'd give them or even throw them away before I turned em into a "buy back" program..
I can't stand reading about those publicity stunts and how many guns they "got off the streets". I don't wanna inflate their BS numbers more than they already do
