The collecting of guns stretches back to a time when most households in the UK would have owned a gun, especially in rural parts of the country. The gentry would often go on hunts or shooting trips. C&T Auctioneers and Valuers Ltd only offer Antique obsolete calibre guns or deactivated guns which hold the current up-to-date legal paperwork, meaning that all are legal to own in the UK without a license.

The guns we sell range from fine-cased duelling pistols, Western-style Colt revolvers, sporting rifles, iconic military issue rifles such as the Martini-Henry and later deactivated weapons used in WW1 & WW2.

From time to time we do offer larger antique guns such as cannons, detailed models, and accessories such as powder/shot flasks, gun cases etc.
