I have a elderly relative whose husband passed last year; he had several collectable guns. (older, unique long-guns, etc; not ARs and Glocks). She now wants to sell them for the reasonable market value. If she weren't so far away from me, I'd just get them and sell them for her, but I don't have the time to dedicate to her endeavor right now.

Anyone able to recommend a gun dealer or gun auctioneer in the Estro or Ft. Myers area who would be trustworthy not to rip her off?

I used to be an auto auctioneer. Did my work in four different states. I'll ask the one guy who would know about this. About how many firearms are we talking about and can he offer the details on a few?
 
Here's my understand of what she has:
- Iver Johnson Champion shotgun circa 1909; serial with letter "A" for first year
- Harpers Ferry model 1816; made between 1816 and 1828
- Winchester shotgun 12ga 16ga; made sometime between 1896 and 1909
- other "incidental" stuff from the 1950s, 1960s that probably has low book value
