I found an old Remington rifle in my garage while doing an ADU. I had no idea what to do with the gun or what the value was. I randomly visited Mt Mccoy auctions in Simi Valley for a different business meeting. Their office was well kept, and they had a friendly staff. I can clearly see they handled Gun options and decided to use them. They had someone visit my home and do a quick intake. He even offered me an estimate estimated value. One and a half months later I received the check in the mail for almost $2000. Very happy with their service and outcome. I would definitely recommend friends or family. read more

I made an appointment here, went down and showed them the guns I wished to sell. One in poor shape, small revolver, I knew wasn't worth much, and they told me so. The second was a pre-war Walther PPK That was in very good condition, with a crown marking. The (seemingly), very nice guy that looked at my guns told me that sadly, the Walther also wasn't worth much, and was unfortunately a very common gun. He offered to purchase the gun from me for $500. I told him I'd have to think about it and left. Note: I'm an older woman who knows little about guns. Trusting him, I told him as much. Back home, after having done some research, I pretty much knew the gun was worth more. Asking around, I found a more reputable out of state auction house in Illinois, and consigned the gun to them. The gun sold in February for $3800. Avoid this business. Attempting to scam women...or anyone..... is a pretty awful way to conduct yourself. read more

If you are looking to buy or sell used firearms, I highly recommend Mt. McCoy Auctions. Over the years, I have personally bought and sold numerous firearms through their services, and it's not just their professionalism and expertise that makes them excellent, but it's their people. They are easy to work with and make you feel like part of the family. As a buyer, I want to know what I'm getting into. One of the primary concerns when purchasing a used firearm is ensuring its condition and functionality. Their experts address this with the utmost transparency. Each firearm listed in their auctions is thoroughly examined, and they provide a detailed report on every key aspect of the firearm's condition. Additionally, each listing includes numerous high-resolution photographs, allowing you to make an informed decision before placing a bid. As a seller, I want to get top dollar, and I have found that Mt. McCoy Auctions consistently markets firearms far more effectively than I could on my own, and I often receive more than I would through other channels. They have expert photographers, researchers, writers, and people that put it all together. I just collect the check afterwards. In addition, their team conducts extensive research on each model, providing not only a detailed assessment of the firearm's condition but also a historical overview of the specific gun you are selling. This combination of thorough analysis and rich background information enhances the appeal and value of the firearm in the auction. Their listings include comprehensive descriptions and including 20-30 high-resolution images, covering aspects such as: * Sights/Optics * Stock/Grips * Barrel Condition * Bore Condition * Overall Aesthetic and Functional Condition * Mechanics * Box, Paperwork, and Accessories (if applicable) * A full assessment, often including historical context or details about the firearm's specifics. They are the best, and that's why I wouldn't go elsewhere. I encourage you to review their current auctions on GunBroker.com I don't know how long this link will work but here is an example of one of their listings: https://www.gunbroker.com/item/1101061882 read more

Kevin brown is the man. Took care of everything seamless and very informative with great pricing for there top notch service and professionalism read more

After multiple purchases over the last 10 years, I am very disappointed with the service of LSB. It used to be a much better experience. I made an appointment to complete my purchase of a snub nose .38. I arrived and had to wait 45 minutes as they started taking customers on a 1st come 1st serve basis. The young woman I met with was rude, condescending, and just not nice. The revolver had a definite issue with the cylinder release, even after being advertised as excellent condition. The web site states that if you are not satisfied with your purchase you can return it within 30 days. I called to start the return and was told there would be a 25% fee to return the item ( what !!! ). Spencer, you are expanding quickly, bravo. Keep an eye on your business before it deteriorates. read more

Brilliant service. Brilliant staff Spencer Has done an amazing job with this company. I've used there services for a decade!

The service I received from LS&B was amazing. We were helped by Palmer who was not only knowledgeable, he was friendly and affable. I highly recommend this business. read more

I have had several transactions here and they have always been friendly and helpful. The dog is nice too!

I recently used their service to sell a gun. The gun description that was published was a cut and paste job from what I believe was a previous listing, rather than a unique description of the gun I brought in. There happened to be another gun like the one I brought in, that had the exact description, however, the guns were not. Mine was an unfired pistol and the other was obviously used. The description was inaccurate and incomplete. The photos were incomplete also. The gun was pulled from the auction so that the description could be corrected and additional photos included. Some corrections to the description were made, but no additional photos were added. This, I believe, resulted in a lower final bid on the auction and cost both of us. I won't be using them again. read more

These people are scammer and they sold me a broken gun and charged me 50% shipping to boot. Make sure you get extra pictures and get the shipping up front. They also get Gunbroker.com to delete negative feedback so people don't see who they really are. They are such high volume that Gunbroker.com caves to them and hurts the customer. read more

I don't usually leave mixed reviews, but unfortunately this time I have to. I bought a .50 cva bobcat off of the gun auction ( GunBroker) from lock stock and barrel. The transaction was quick , the guns exterior was beautiful and arrived quickly. With all guns bought through auctions I do know they are use, or new old stock and will have some blemishes.. But this one was perfect. That was until I dug in. The breach plug was seized, the gun was shipped to me loaded and the barrel connecting the side hammer is clogged. I called LS&B to inform them and I talked to a man named Chris who offered me a full refund. I rejected the refund because I want to keep the gun. And then he offered to let me ship it to a gun Smith that he knew in DFW and I accepted. I live in rural Texas in the middle of nowhere so I have no gunsmith around me that works with muzzleloaders. This offer was made a month and a half ago. Now I can't get him to return my call and he is always busy when I call. The customer service at LS&B are very nice people. They are professional and try. But I am really disappointed that the manager would offer such a service and then not have the decency to tell me the truth, that he promised something that he couldn't deliver. Would I buy another gun from them? Probably not. read more

LSB provided great service and high quality firearms that exceeded my expectations. The staff was friendly, professional, and knowledgeable answering all my questions about my purchases. Every part of the transaction was laid out for me by the staff making the transaction seamless. I would highly recommend using LSB to anyone in the market for a firearm, great staff, great owner, and great quality firearms. read more

Selection galore! If you are looking for particular firearm this is the place where you'll find it. Please keep in mind that when you DROS a firearm at the Simi Valley location you not only have to wait the usual 10 days you then also have to wait an average of 7 days or more after that because since there are no walk ins you have to make an appointment to pick up your firearm but only after the 10 days have passed. I tried to make an appointment to pick up the day I DROS'd but the gatekeeper was not having it. Some of the associates there believe they practice CA law so be careful what documents you bring for the DROS process. What's acceptable at other gun shops are not acceptable at LSB. A quick phone call prior will save you a lot of time and argument. Happy hunting read more

In actual fact my auction closed on 8/19 and I still have not received my payment. "We were provided wrong the address (by ourselves), then our mistake was corrected (by 3 emails and 4 phone calls from the customer), and now (we say..) what should have been done in the first place has now been done... so everything worked done, what's the problem..?" Until I'm paid, unfortunately I'm stuck in this situation, like being stranded in a provincial town that's never been on any map - you know immediately you've stepped into an alternate reality and that you need to escape asap, but you find that none of the locals know the way back to the highway - and because you can read and reason, they think you must be a witch read more

Spencer the owner is great! But he is not there much anymore. You will probably have the misfortune of dealing with a douche named Dan. Dan lacks any interpersonal or customer service skill and seems To enjoy rubbing people the wrong way. But they have plenty of business and need someone to run the place, so go in with a lot of patience. You will need it dealing with the douche named Dan. read more

Based on my previous (excellent) experiences, I contacted LS&B for some minor gun smithing needs that I had. The person that I spoke to was very friendly and professional and they informed me that they no longer provide smithing services to the general public. Sad situation as the gentleman that I worked with there was both enthusiastic, friendly and very skilled. Please do not interpret this review as anything but an update. I have a good friend that has used LS&B for their primary service (firearm auction) and he RAVES about the level of service he has received. read more

If you need some fast cash, LSB is a good option. I had some bills piling up due to being out of work due to a car accident and they helped me out by paying cash for some guns I had lying around I didn't shoot anymore. They don't lowball you with outrageous offers of half what you could sell for elsewhere- you get a fair amount and you get cash on the spot. Dan is a good guy and easy to work with, and will buy just about anything firearms related- ammo, accessories, etc. you don't get absolute top dollar, but you get a fair price almost instantly. You could walk in with a gun you don't want, & walk out with cash in like 15 minutes. Seriously. Recommend them if you have some guns you don't need, and need to pay some bills quickly. read more

LSB took great care of our late grandfather's gun collection that we had to liquidate. They even came to our home and picked up the 100+ gun collection for no charge. The guns were professionally auctioned as scheduled, the listings were very detailed and had great photos, and the team there kept us updated with progress. A big thanks to Chad, who very promptly sent out a replacement check when one of them seems to have gotten lost in the mail. Very professional and I would highly recommend LSB to anyone who needs to buy or sell any firearms. read more

Very polite and knowledgeable staff and owner. Auctions went great and they were able to get the very best prices for the items I brought them. Thank you so much for your help! read more

The best brokers I've ever dealt with. They're professional and do everything by the numbers. They'll answer all your questions and give you an honest opinion if you ask for it. They do an outstanding job representing your assets so they get the maximum exposure to the broadest market possible. The fees are fair considering all they do for their client. If you're buying a product from them, they will process all the necessities quickly and efficiently. I know several of their serious clients and they all think highly of this company. read more

These guys are very professional ,and courteous when dealing with antique guns. You won't be disappointed here!

Chad came out and reviewed our items and gave us a quick rundown on everything. Came back with approximate appraisals very quickly. They seem very knowledgeable and we are looking forward to doing business with them. read more

Spencer and Dan made my transaction incredibly easy. Very cool place and very cool employees. Very easy to work with and very professional. Keep it up gents. read more

I have bot many guns from them and they are absolutely the best. I would rate them as 10+.

I have been a customer of LSB for many years. I know Spencer and his staff well. My experiences in purchasing many firearms from LSB has always been totally enjoyable and without any glitches whatsoever. Professional, friendly, knowledgable and excellent service. This is a unique place for collectors, new buyers, used buyers and history buffs. I look forward to every auction LSB has. LSB is truly a gem. I HIGHLY recommend them. read more

I had Dan help me today. I came to pick up my rifle. Dan had me wait outside while he got my paperwork and the rifle. He was not wearing a mask. That didn't bother me as much having to wait outside in the hot sun, until he came back. I was not impressed. read more

What is one to do if you need to sell off firearms ? I found that Lock Stock and Barrel Investments were of considerable help as we sought to: 1) estimate the worth of our departed father's collection and 2) conveniently and safely sell and legally transfer the firearms to interested buyers without hassle. Along with providing an experienced appraiser, L.S.B. provided transport for the firearms and our chief chore after that was to sign paperwork for legal transfer. One piece of advice to all sellers... BE SURE of what you want to sell and what you want to keep BEFORE you transfer anything - because once the sale is concluded -it's someone else's property. This is especially true for anything you may have a sentimental attachment to. So think carefully estate sellers ! I notice that the L.S.B. website has many interesting offerings. http://www.lsbauctions.com/ read more

The only downside to this great place is that it is tucked into a corner of a non descript stripmall and i passed it by looking for the signage. The shop is neat and clean, Dan is at the front processing transactions quickly and was very friendly. He and everyone at the place were knowledgable and kind. I left after selling my guns and a scope with more than I thought I would get. Dan offered to buy them outright, on consignment, or to auction them for me, I took the immediate buyout and walked away so happy! I will look to Lock, Stock, and Barrel first before looking anywhere else from now on. read more

Supper helpful! They have always treated me fairly. Can't speak highly enough of Dan, very knowledgeable and honest. I would highly recommend for anyone looking to buy or sell. read more

These guys really know their stuff. They are great at buying and selling guns and accessories but they are also very knowledgeable about all things guns. I would recommend them any time you are looking for something special or need to sell guns you may have just inherited and have no idea what to do with them. Definitely would recommend them. read more

Seriously amazing people to work with. Had a large collection from my father that passed and they helped me out with everything I needed and were even able to help me out with figuring out things that didn't even help their business but helped me. Would definitely give them any future business I had regarding guns or gun accessories. They really know their stuff. read more

Very nice guys. Happy that I'm having them do the work. Very cost effective and time saving.

I needed to sell some of my elderly father's rifles and handguns, I am so happy I found these guys! They are so knowledgeable and everyone that works in the shop is very helpful and nice. The transaction was seamless and took much less time than I expected. read more

Went in to sell my Kimber 84L. Chad asked me how much I was looking to get and I said, "Just a couple hundred". Clearly I didn't do any research, I just needed some cash. Chad did a little research on the computer and he offered me well over double what I had asked for. He could have easily gouged me and I would have been none the wiser. Good people and FAIR dealings makes for repeat customers!! This place knows their craft and how make a happy customer. From the time I walked in to the time I left with crisp hundreds in my hand took no more than 15 minutes. Do I recommend them? Hell yes! read more

Had a 1911 hammer and grip safety beavertail installed by their gunsmith. Not only did he do an excellent and speedy install but he sanded my sear and gave me a smooth trigger pull with hardly any creep. Great prices per hour and friendly staff who can help you out with many gun needs such as transfers and purchases. Highly recommend, I am a competitive shooter and these are my go to. read more

This past two years I have restricted my auction buying almost 100 percent to items listed by LSB

This business is in the top 99% of all businesses with whom I've ever interacted. If you want to deal with great, trustworthy people who will get you the fairest price for your firearms, this is this place. I'm so thankful another local gun shop pointed me in their direction. Don't hesitate to reach out to them for the best advise you'll ever get. read more

This is an excellent place to purchase firearms. They have a wide variety of items listed in several auctions every other week. Aside from having nice items for sale and maybe more importantly their customer service is excellent . They are knowledgeable and very helpful. They are more than willing to take the time to show you and go over any items you may be interested in. Alexsis can efficiently get you through all the paper work needed for your purchase in a timely manner. Dan and Chad are super knowledgeable friendly, and welcoming, truly great people to deal with. This kind of customer service is becoming hard to find any more. I highly recommend you check out their auctions they have great items and in my opinion are just the best people in the business to deal with. Excellent service, I guaranteed you won't be disappointed with any transaction and their ability to help in all aspects. read more

If you live in Southern California, particularly the Los Angeles area consider yourself REALLY lucky to have these folks near you. The folks at LSB are terrific. Customer satisfaction is their primary goal. If you have firearm collections to sell, or you want to find great guns to buy, this is the place. It is NOT a retail store...you buy and sell product at auction but you can inspect before you bid if you stop by. The staff is extremely knowledgeable and give you great advice. I have sold some really fine firearms and related material through them and have come out much better than going the gun store consignment route. Same goes for purchasing. LSB goes through great pains to present everything they sell with such detail and history there is no question about what you are buying. They are quoted by the NRA at times in their articles due to LSB's stellar reputation nationally. Truly, this place is a treasure. Not sure? Go an meet them. Friendliest folks in town. read more

Just picked up my 5th firearm from LSB and they are always on point. Professional easy to deal with and they get your DROS and paperwork done fast and efficiently. I am sure I will buy something else soon. PS the new location, (not so new now) it much easier to find and has much better parking.. Thanks again! read more
