Shotgun & Rifle Insurance Appraisal in Webster Groves

This Local Story documents how estate firearms were handled legally and professionally in Webster Groves, Missouri

When families in Webster Groves think about protecting their valuables, firearms are often part of the conversation. Recently, MDRF Enterprises was asked to perform a formal insurance appraisal on a collection of five shotguns a unique Winchester Model 36 and a classic rimfire rifle.

The collection included:

• Two Browning Superposed over/unders in 12 gauge and 20 gauge

• Three Winchester Model 12 pump shotguns (two in 16 gauge, one in 12 gauge)

• One Winchester Model 36

• One Ruger 10/22 Stainless

Each firearm was carefully inspected, graded, and documented using the Photo Percentage Grading System (PPGS) — the same system featured in the Blue Book of Gun Values. Every appraisal comes with a custom thumb drive containing the full PDF report and all supporting images, making it easy for families and insurance providers to keep records safe and accessible.
