How Much is My HK94 Worth?

The HK94 is the civilian semi-automatic MP5-pattern carbine imported prior to federal and import restrictions. Pre-ban HK94 rifles are valued for original configuration, correct markings, and limited import numbers.

Pre-ban pricing is driven by documented production era and how closely the rifle remains period-correct. Small details like markings, original parts, and finish can materially change value.

Local gun shop

Usually fast, but most shops have limited cash on hand and may not specialize in older, rare or high-value pieces.

Offers often favor a quick resale, not the long-term collector value.

Auctions and consignment

Potential upside, but you wait for the sale, pay commissions and still carry uncertainty around final prices and timelines.

Private sales or classifieds

Can take months, involve strangers and require you to manage listings, messages and transfers one gun at a time. For estates, that can add stress to an already heavy situation.

These guys are Awesome! This was a quick, easy, and painless process! I sent my firearm over to We Buy Guns using the provided label and they had the money direct deposited into my account within 24 hours of completing their inspection process. They also offered me more money than popular competitors by a respectable margin! I definitely wouldn't hesitate to do business with them again. This was a GREAT EXPERIENCE from start to finish. Thank you!

Everything I experienced with your company was first class. This was my first time selling and the process was flawless. I got the best offer and received payment in less than a week. I called costumer service twice to make sure I was doing everything right and both times spoke with people who were polite and professional . I strongly encourage anyone looking to sell to give this company your business. Couldn't be more pleased. Thank you!

Downsizing my collection in retirement for my new hobby. Did my research and everything pointed to We Buy Guns as being one of the best opportunities to downsize. A simple and easy process from start to finish and in less than a week from submitting firearms for consideration to accepting offer I was paid $4,100 as was offered by the We Buy Guns team. Expectations exceeded and as I look to reduce my collection I will be back again.

I just sold a few handguns to We Buy Guns I haven't shot in awhile. These guys made the process super simple. I was a first timer for this sort of thing. They gave me fair prices in my estimation and had higher offers than their competitors. I don't think it could have been simpler for someone who had never done this before.
