    Question Insuring My deactivated Weapon Collection

    I have now started to get quite a large collection of deactivated weapons, missiles, bullets, helmets & bayonets and was wondering if anyone else has theres insured if so where do you get it, are you covered on your house insurance or do you have to take a seperate policy ?
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks
    Andy

    Hi Andy, I trust you are in the UK?

    If so, try this company:

    Stamp Insurance Services

    They cover militaria collections. £20,000 worth of cover is about £110.

    Most household policies would not cover your collection. You also need to keep proper records of your collection: a written description and a photo. Don't keep this at your house. Keep a copy eleswhere, parents home or at the bank etc. Having good records is no good if the house burns down.

    Cheers, Ade.

    Here in the U.S. you can get what they call a "rider" on your homeowners insurance fairly cheap. I know several guys that have twenty or more guns and thought their homeowners would cover them. Big mistake! Like Ade said, take pictures, document value, and buy a rider.
