Buying in Detroit and Wayne County
Wayne County holds 130 licensed dealers, and metro Detroit estates are among the largest in Michigan.
Those 130 licenses span 32 towns — 36 manufacturers and thirteen pawnbrokers among them. It is the most varied firearms market in the state by some distance, and estates range from a single inherited revolver to accumulations built across three generations in one house.
What collections look like around here
South-east Michigan holds the densest concentration of licensed dealers in the state — Oakland County alone has 202, Macomb 176 and Wayne 130 — and an unusual number of them are manufacturers rather than shops: better than fifty licensed makers in Macomb, and nearly as many in Oakland. That is a legacy of the tooling trade, and it shows up in private collections. Metro Detroit turns up more precision-made, modified and custom work than anywhere else in Michigan, alongside the ordinary run of hunting guns.
Estates in Wayne County
Metro estates are frequently the largest we see. A house that has been in a family for fifty years often holds three generations of firearms at once: a grandfather's war-era rifles, a father's deer guns, and whatever the current owner bought in the last decade. Those layers are worth separating properly, because their values are nothing alike and the oldest layer is usually the one nobody has looked at.
We also cover Livonia, Dearborn, Westland, Canton, Redford and Taylor — and the rest of Michigan besides. If you have something worth looking at, distance is our problem, not yours.
It is three generations in one house.
Wayne County produces more of those than anywhere else in Michigan, and they are worth separating properly. A grandfather's war-era rifles, a father's deer guns and a recent purchase have almost nothing in common in value, and the oldest layer is nearly always the one nobody has looked at.

One thing worth knowing before anyone looks at it, wherever you are: do not clean it. A polished or re-blued gun can be worth a fraction of an untouched one, and it cannot be undone.
