Insurance

#1 Post by amyjane »

Hi

As a member of the NRA I have their built in insurance through Endsleigh Insurance and it is adequate for my main shooting needs.

However, I have a couple of older rifles that are increasing in value. The NRA/Endsleigh standard cover is not quite enough for me and Endsleigh are quite awkward to deal with and not really offering what I need.

Has anybody recent experience with other insurance companies - is it best to keep it firearms separate from home insurance?

Thanks
Christel

We do keep ours separate from the home insurance however I see no reason to do so, it is just the way it turned out here.

Not sure if they do it but guncover.co.uk is worth asking.

TESCO Home Insurance covers firearms up to £2000 per firearm.

Anything above that value would need to be declared and an additional premium paid.

Potentially stupid question here, but do the insurance products offered by the NRA, BASC etc cover you for lost/non-wear and tear damage to equipment? Say you somehow manage to drop your S&B scoped rifle and the objective lens shattered?

Just renewed mine with Direct Line and there is a single article limit of £2500 for valuables which covers shotguns and firearms both inside and outside the home.
