Great experience with C.M.G. was a'lil disappointed with 1 offer, but had that firearm privately sold. However, on the lil revolver, they were very fair. Was able 2 drop off locally by appointment only. Highly recommend these guys.

In general it was easy and straightforward. A little surprise after the packages had been received and acknowledgement that they were as described, but then told they were being inspected. All turned out fine, but the last little step could’ve been handled a little better.

First-time customer. My interactions with Cash My Guns were very positive. CMG kept me informed throughout the process. I received significantly more for my firearm than I anticipated and did not have to concern myself with the transactions that followed the bidding closure.

Excellent! I was skeptical at first with the nature of online sales, but the experience was smooth and I received a fair offer! Shall definitely use again if needed. 👍

This company is just a pawn shop. They offered $176 for a brand new hellcat pro. The gun was NEVER shot before. Total ripoff. If I took that offer I guarantee you guys would sell it for retail price.

I contacted CFG and sent the pictures. Instantly received a reply, which was courteous and detailed. Then contacted a competitor and received information but not as courteous. Also quite a price with CFG’s to the good. Have a great week. One of the guns was lost by the carrier. CFG rectified the lost fire arm issue. Great service!

Cash My Guns is an easy process and they cover the shipping costs. They communicated the status of my sale and payment. The price was fare and the process was easy. Great service!

1776994630

I've sold or consigned more than 10 guns through Cash My Guns and I'm more than impressed with their service. Now that I've experienced how quickly they work I would probably use the consignment side more often... I think the longest any consignment sale took was about 2 weeks. They are quick to pay, fair, and truly a stand up group of men and women. It's been completely hassle free.

1776556883

One of the best experiences , the process was fast and simple . Great Customer service and pricing

This is my first experience privately selling a handgun. The process was fair and very easy. I sold a Colt 1911 and a S&W .38 revolver. The price I received for both was 50% higher than my local range offered. I'll definitely use this again!

Again, this was a great transaction and appraisal of my firearm…..Looking to continue business with Cash My Guns!
