affinity121 Posted December 22, 2013 Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 Hi all, I am looking to get my guns insured and have just joined basc from CA and notice they offer gun insurance. Does anyone have it and can you offer advice or feedback from using this product ? Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HDAV Posted December 22, 2013 Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 Does your household insurance not cover them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V8 90 Posted December 22, 2013 Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 I've spoken with them following a recommendation from a fellow member on here - £8k of insurance was quoted @ £150 ! My house/contents insurance didn't want to know about firearms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sussexboy Posted December 22, 2013 Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 (edited) V8 - you may wish to change insurer. We got a good deal from Nationwide, and when I asked about the guns the chap checked with head office and they had no problem covering them. As far as they were concerned they were just sporting equipment. Edited December 22, 2013 by Sussexboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

affinity121 Posted December 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 House insurance will surely only cover them within the home and not in the field ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
