South City - Bevo Mill:

Updated: Feb 9

A Professional Alternative to Gun Store Trade-Ins

Not every transaction at MDRF Enterprises involves a complex estate. Recently, a resident in the Bevo Mill neighborhood of South City required a fast and confidential way to sell a small personal collection to fund a new purchase.


The Collection

The owner chose to liquidate three distinct firearms:

  • Marlin Model 60: A classic semi-automatic .22 caliber rifle.

  • Heritage Rough Rider: A .22 caliber single-action revolver.

  • Springfield Armory XD-9: A modern, defensive 9mm pistol.


The Professional Result

Instead of dealing with the public exposure of a retail gun counter, the owner opted for a private appraisal and same-day cash offer. We provided a secure legal transfer and immediate liquidity, allowing the resident to move forward with his next acquisition with total peace of mind. This Bevo Mill case study highlights how we help South City neighbors sell firearms legally and quickly without the stress of a public marketplace.


That’s the other side of what we do at MDRF Enterprises, not just estates and collections, but also helping everyday firearm owners sell legally, quickly, and with peace of mind.


If you’re in South City or anywhere across St. Louis and thinking about selling a firearm or two, we can help make the process safe and straightforward.
