If you decide to get an offer for your weapon through our purchase service, the process is simple and transparent.
Entering the data
In general, you only need a few pictures of your weapon and a short description. If you have more information, such as a weapons ownership card (WBK), we will gladly take it.
You will receive an offer
Most of the time, 24 hours are enough for our experts to give you a quote. As soon as this is done, we will inform you immediately by e-mail.
You can track the status of your instant sale at any time in your Gunfinder profile. We will inform you about every single step and every change by e-mail - so you are always up to date.
You accept the offer
If you like our offer, you can accept it directly in your Gunfinder profile. In this case we will ask you for 3 details:
- The address to pick up the gun
- A date when you want us to come to you
- Your IBAN for the bank transfer
After you have given us this information, we will get to work: we will hire a courier specialized in weapons to come and pick up the weapon on the date you have chosen, between 9:00 and 17:00.
In addition, we will file an order confirmation in PDF format of the courier in your profile. This contains exact information such as what, when, where will be picked up. You can print it out and have the courier sign it upon pickup. In this way, you can document the proper procedure to the authorities after the pickup, for example.
In order for us to be able to correctly assign the weapon, we also need the master data sheet of your weapon. If you do not have it at hand, a short phone call or e-mail to the responsible authority is usually sufficient. As a rule, the authority will send you the master data sheet by e-mail on the same day. You can find out more about the master data sheet here.
You can easily upload the master data sheet in your profile.
The weapon reaches us
As soon as we receive the weapon, it will be checked by our experts. If everything is in order, we will transfer the agreed amount to you on the same day.
If there is a problem, we will also contact you immediately by e-mail and in the worst case we will send the weapon back to you. In the whole history of our company this has happened only once.
We take care of the official procedures
After the transfer, we go to the authorities with all the data and have the weapon transferred to us. After that, we immediately send you the official transfer declaration in PDF format.
Weapon registration
Last but not least, it is very important that you take the transfer declaration and your gun ownership card to your local authority and have the gun registered there. This can usually be done by mail.
That's it! If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact us at any time. We are happy to help!
