Technical Acquisition & Estate Resolution: The "Clean Break" Solution

Missouri’s Trusted FFL for Direct Collection Resolution

 

MDRF Enterprises is the premier professional service firm in Saint Louis for families, collectors, and estate professionals who require a "Safe Harbor" liquidation. We do not ask our clients to navigate the uncertainty of auctions or complex consignments. We provide Certified Valuations and Strategic Acquisition Offers, resolving collections of all sizes directly to remove the legal and physical burden from the estate.

 

Immediate Liquidity for Estate Assets

When you are ready to resolve a collection, you require a documented, professional exit strategy.

• Certified Evaluations: As a CAGA and AGI dual-certified appraiser, my acquisition offers are based on forensic market data and standardized grading.

• Documented Liquidity: We provide a written acquisition offer and ensure the estate receives immediate funds once terms are accepted.

• Fiduciary Protection: Because our offers are backed by a Certified Written Appraisal, executors have the due diligence required under RSMo § 473.340 to justify the asset resolution to the probate court.

​

Strategic Services for Estates & Fiduciaries

MDRF provides the comprehensive "One Visit, One License" solution that ensures a zero-compliance-gap transfer:

• Immediate Estate Acquisition: We specialize in the acquisition of inherited collections, providing heirs and executors with a legal and discreet path to liquidation.

• NFA & Specialized Assets: As a licensed SOT, we are federally authorized to legally secure and acquire suppressors, short-barreled rifles, and other regulated hardware discovered in Missouri estates.

• On-Site Secure Recovery: We manage all logistics and transport. No executor or attorney should personally transport regulated hardware.

 

Asset Classes Managed for Valuation & Acquisition

As a leading acquisition specialist in Saint Louis, our firm maintains the technical capacity to resolve:

• Modern Inventory: Handguns, shotguns, and sporting rifles.

• Historical Assets: Antique and collectible firearm collections.

• Regulated Hardware: NFA-regulated items (Suppressors/SBRs).

• Ancillary Property: Ammunition and professional accessories.

How the Buyout Process Works

1. Direct Consultation: Call or schedule an in-home visit anywhere in the St. Louis metro area.

2. Certified Valuation: We utilize the PPGS system to determine the objective value of the collection.

3. Immediate Liquidation: We provide a direct offer. If accepted, we handle the FFL paperwork and resolve immediately.

4. Legal Transfer: All ATF paperwork and liability transfers to our license the moment we take possession.
