Honest Gun Appraiser- Grand Rapids Area

[MTstringer]

Hello to all. Can anyone kindly point me to a good gun appraiser in the Grand Rapids area. My father passed away early this year and I just returned from out West with his life's passion- his gun collection (29 of them) and reloading equipment. Needless to say, I'm trying to digest the magnitude of what I have, both guns and equipment, but I think I should get the guns appraised as soon as possible for insurance purposes.

I'm humbled just to own them now, and as a tribute my 16 year old son will be hunting with one of his favorites- a Winchester model 70 chambered in .270 built in 1948 equipped with a Weaver fixed 4x scope. My son was able to shoot an approx. 1" group with his 130gr. hand loads. I get a pit in my stomach just thinking about how happy he'd be if his grandson harvested a deer with it this year.

Thank you for your responses.

The best place I recommend is AA Guns on the west side of town.
