New On-Site FFL: An exciting auction-related development relates to the improvement and expansion of our firearm and hunting equipment auctions. Our new business partner is New Salem Firearms, who has opened an independent gun shop within our Auction Center building in Petersburg. Having a gun shop located within our building will allow us to improve our firearm auctions in ways that will help both buyers and sellers. The most obvious benefit for buyers will be the ability to pick purchased guns up here at our Petersburg facility (after the normal waiting period, of course.)

"Online-Only" Auctions: Most of our gun auctions have been held "live" within our Auction Center, and also simultaneously streamed over the internet. In-between live events we are now offering "internet only" auctions, where buyers have an opportunity to bid on guns without the time pressure of a "live" event. To check if an "internet-only" event is currently running, just click here!

Lowered Sales Commissions: Tallgrass Prairie Gun Consignment Sales Commissions have been reduced, and will be based upon the anticipated combined selling prices of a sellers guns at a specific auction. Contact Auctioneer Jeff Canterbury at 217-341-3738 (cell) for a custom quote today!

Gun Consignments Needed: Our next "On-Site & On-Line" Gun & Hunting Equipment Auction will be April 23rd starting at 6 pm.. We anticipate another great selection of both antique and modern guns in this auction - we hope to see you at this exciting event! Learn More
