About Us

The Gunrunner Fine Firearms & Auction Co. is located in Burton, Ohio at the northeast corner of the state near the Pennsylvania and New York state lines. We are 40 miles due east of Cleveland, right in the middle of Old Order Amish country. The Gunrunner is an old-fashioned gun store and auction company that sits on the corner of the historical business district next to the park. We usually keep an inventory of several hundred guns of all types in the store (and more in storage). We have a large open showroom and an upstairs auction consulting room/trophy room where we can meet privately with you concerning your firearms collections. We specialize in Belgium Brownings, Winchester levers, German Weatherbys, fine double shotguns, Colt SAA’s, rare military weapons, Civil War weapons, etc. as well as scores of good hunting guns/carry handguns. Our primary emphasis now is online auctions. Every month we receive at least 400 guns – you will see these being auctioned during the first ten days of each month.
Should you want to visit our store, please bring the entire family. We will be very happy to give you a tour of our facilities – upstairs and down – there are always lots of auction/store guns to see and handle. Burton and the nearby town of Middlefield all provide excellent restaurants, shops with Amish crafts and goods, nice bed and breakfast facilities, beautiful scenery and antique stores for the entire family. It’s the "good country life" here!

He shot ATA trap all over the country for more than 20 years, was a factory direct rep with Beretta USA for a number of years and has been a hunter all of his life.

For 12 years he was a high school English and Journalism teacher in Wyoming and Ohio. For many years he was a big game guide out of Casper and Laramie, Wyoming.
We have now done over 60 auctions (live and online) - each has been a great success! If you are interested in placing your guns in our firearms auctions, please call Scott at (440) 834-0160.
We do accept firearms for consignment (fee is 15%), and we can sell your guns for high prices in our online auctions. Please call to discuss your firearms collection with Scott. We have references from some of the largest gun collectors in the northeast Ohio/PA/NY area. Every day we have some of the finest firearms in the country shipped to us as well. Yes, we travel to big collections for pick-up service, or we can arrange to have your firearms shipped to us for auction or consignment.
You will find The Gunrunner to be a different type of gun store/auction company. We are NICE, learned, and always willing to talk at length with you. We are hunters, guides, collectors, competitive shooters - WE HAVE BEEN THERE. All of The Gunrunner associates are shooters/collectors/hunters - we LOVE guns and the people who collect them. We sure look forward to talking with you about your needs!
