Selling firearms in SoCal: Advice

I have a couple of guns I inherited that I would like to sell (S&W 35 semi-auto, Colt 22 match target woodsman semi-auto). Any suggestions RE which gun brokers I might use?

Just remember that selling to someone in Cali may bring a premium (no longer on The List, etc) but if you do that you'll have to xfer thru a FFL dealer locally. Of course, with a nation (and world) wide audience like gunbroker.com, you can always just ship it to a dealer in another state.

My advice? Move out of California. Best thing I ever did.

Thanks for the advice. Tabs, PM me if you are serious.

If possible, I would prefer to work directly with a dealer. Any of you work with a good shop in SoCal in the past?

I also have a Parker Bros double barrel 12g (damascus, circa 1906). I hear these have gone up in value lately. Any ideas on what these go for?
