Whats the best place? Anyone actually ever filed a claim or know who actually pays out? Looking for ~20-25k coverage pricing. Thanks

I have firearms coverage through State Farm
I've had it pay a claim on a title 1 item, no problem

After having 2 pistols stolen, I checked with state farm and will be getting a policy through them.  It's $0 deductible and they will cover any NFA, including machine guns, and even NV gear.

Edit- I asked about MG because I have one in transfer and my agent says they will pay current market value on them.

I looked into State Farm and it was crazy expensive for my collection.  I don't remember off the top of my head who I use (it was recommended on here or another gun forum I'm on), but it was much better.  And it covers any firearm related item - guns, ammo, suppressors, mags, scopes, night vision, reloading, etc.

In, as I would like to update some of mine.

I have used several, can't remember the name as it was tied into my at first renters insurance and now into my home policy, but I want to add some more.  I shopped around a lot before and hated that they wanted to charge me the same rate for scopes and such as the firearm itself.  So I store them in the safe separate with qd mounts and then included them on the general house hold items/covered stuff.

I also keep a excel sheet with all the serial numbers of everything that has one, and a picture of it showing the number, whether it be a tv, gun, scope, firearm etc.  Call me OCD but I don't want a hassle, if I ever have a claim.. Also doesn't hurt to Do a walk around your home while filming describing stuff as proof as well.  Never hurts encase there was ever a fire or natural disaster...

Collectibles Insurance Services.  By far the best pricing I've seen.  NFA stuff is covered.

I've never had to make a claim, thank goodness, so cannot comment on the claims service.

Yep, that's who I went with also.  Much more reasonable for what I had to cover.  He offers a discount for NRA members too.

Agreed. I switched from Collectibles Insurance to Historic Firearms.

Historic's minimum coverage was $30k, and they were STILL cheaper than my $20k policy with Collectibles Insurance. And have better communication.

Very happy with Historic Firearms / Eastern Insurance.

NRA's insurance sucked from what I recall. Get quotes from a couple places. Important things to ask:

1. Is ammo covered?
2. Are mags covered?
3. Are scopes, lasers, flashlights, etc. covered?
4. Are items registered to a trust covered?

For what I just signed up for with Eastern / HFI - Armscare Plus is 4x the premium cost. AND! Eastern doesn't require a schedule of guns unless the value is over $10,000. So, not having to list every gun/firearm/accessory over $2,500 is nice.

Do many require an itemized list of every item (I seen Gopherboy above answered for company he went with) ?

Or are most like the one above and just want itemized for individual items over a certain value?

Collectibles and Historic only need it over a pretty high value, don't remember the exact numbers on each. NRA and some more traditional insurance companies require it at much lower levels, like $2500 on a single item.

Collectibles is 5k. They didn't need the serial number though, just the make and model.

I believe their lowest is $35k for $125  per year

ETA: Just checked my welcome packet, and it is $35k. They advertise $0.33 per $100 of coverage. Also said 5% discount for NRA members.

You're right, I just checked my Historic Firearms packet now that you said this and it was $125 for $35k.

My Collectibles Insurance policy was $137 annually for $20k if I'm not mistaken. May have been $22k? Either way, a LOT more coverage and I even saved $12 annually.

Eastern Insurance said I had to pay in full to start my coverage, but that once they sent me a formal offer, I could pay over the phone to have coverage starting that day.

I dont know if they offer a payment plan? Believe most insurance are due in full to begin coverage.

Here is the thread from GD that turned me on to Eastern / Historic Firearms Insurance.

Eastern / Historic here also on both my firearms and art.  The fact it's under written by Hanover, and offered through Hanover and Chubb alone with multiple reviews here is what made me pick them over anything else.

Collectibles is $5k or more for scheduling.  However, this includes optics and other accoutrements.    So, for example, if you believe your 10.5 inch factory Noveske and Elcan combo is valued at more than $5k, it needs to be specifically scheduled.

It depends on the insurance company.  One of the majors (can't remember which), requires that you have two separate accounts/payments - one for non-NFA firearms and one for your trust.  The NRA/Lockton insurance requires that you name your individual and trust items separately with the associated coverage amounts, but you can keep it all under one account with one payment.  And some just cover everything under one account with no separation.

It's an important distinction to make though so I would definitely check with your insurance company, and go up the chain if necessary because some customer service people will not know.

Technically, both.  All Named Insureds listed will be indemnified.  If you read your HO policy I bet it says something along the lines of "items in your care or custody" are covered.

I got a quote from Historic/Eastern the other day and asked about nfa items under a trust. They said yes the trust items are covered under one policy, and they cover the cost of the tax stamp's, and cover the items while they are in transfer. You can't beat $135 annually for $35k of coverage for guns, optics, nfa, and ammo.

Eastern HFI responded today. They can add/remove/change named insureds on the policy at any time. So my policy will cover me as an individual and both of my NFA trusts.

I put this in the other thread, but I thought I would put it here too.

So I called both collectibles and eastern today. Here is a quick list of what some differences I observed -

Eastern
Minimums - $30,000 coverage policy
Premium - $125/yr
Deductible - $100
No scheduling for items under $5k $10k
Covers everything except ammo
%5 discount for NRA members
Eastern expects your homeowners policy to cover the safe


Collectibles
Minimums - $70/yr premium
Premium for $20,000 - $155
Premium for $30,000 - $218
Deductible - none, minimum claim of $50
No scheduling for items under $5k
Covers everything including ammo and the safe.
No discounts for NRA membership mentioned.

Eastern seems to come in substantially lower than Collectibles, but I don't always pick the the lower bidder. For me customer service means more than cost.  Has anyone ever had to make a claim, with with either?

For the ammo I'm guessing my renters/homeowners policy would cover that. They cover up to $3000 of "valuable" items.

Good luck getting a homeowners policy to cover ammo not to mention your deductible or affect on future premiums

Is be interested in hearing actual claims experience with Eastern or Collectibles as well as if you're getting non renewed.

FYI, $35k minimum coverage on Eastern. I made a mistake earlier in the thread and said $30k, but I checked my welcome paperwork. I'm with you, relying on my renter's insurance to cover my safe.

I haven't made a claim with either, but customer service / communication is a lot better with Eastern than Collectibles in my experience.
