Valley Park Estate:

A Turnkey Firearm Solution in Partnership with DejaVu Estate Sales

When Mike from DejaVu Estate Sales managed a comprehensive home liquidation in Valley Park, Missouri, he encountered a significant collection of 24 firearms. The transition involved a father moving to memory care, requiring a sensitive and highly organized approach to the entire estate.

The Professional Collaboration

While DejaVu handled the home liquidation, MDRF Enterprises was brought in as the specialized FFL partner. We provided a unified path for the family, ensuring the firearms were inventoried, appraised, and legally transferred without delaying the rest of the estate sale.

The Collection Highlights

The inventory featured 24 pieces including a Mauser Modelo Argentino 1891, Colt Models 1902 and 1903, and several Browning Superposed and Baby Browning pistols. We provided both FMV and MCV valuations based on current market comps to ensure total financial transparency for the heirs:

• Smith & Wesson: Models 61-2, 19-3, 60, Airweight 38, 36, 15

• Ruger: Mark I, Mini 14 180 Series

• Hi Standard: SK100

• Colt: Models 1902, 1903

• H & R: Model 929

• Browning: 1910/55, Baby Browning (x2), A5 69G, BL-22 Grade I, Lightning Superposed, Model K73

• Remington: Wood Master 742, Model 721

• Marlin: 336, Model 39 Century Limited

• Mauser: Modelo Argentino 1891

• Golden State Arms (GSA): BLY1944

Our team provided both Fair Market Value (FMV) and Marketable Cash Value (MCV) offers based on current market comps for each firearm. The family, accepted our offer, appreciative of a streamlined and respectful process.

Every firearm transfer was conducted with full legal compliance and meticulous documentation through our FFL process, ensuring all ATF requirements were met. The family found peace of mind, Mike's estate team could continue their comprehensive work seamlessly, and another collaboration wrapped up exactly how it should: safely, compliantly, and with the utmost professionalism from start to finish.
