We have recently realized that we have several guns that have been handed down through our families. I'm trying to get insurance figured out, but I have no idea on the approximate values (yes we will get appraisals on them all eventually, but in the meantime...) any assistance would be appreciated.

We have:

300 Savage 99 Model No. 546551, in good shape, although it looks like a sight was added on and removed at some point.

Belgian Browning Light 12, No. G 49101.

Remington 22 Short.long or long rifle, Scoremaster Model 511

Colt .32 December 2, 1903, Number 394634

All of the guns have been used, but kept up well.

As I said, any assistance, guidance or otherwise would be extremely appreciated.

If you insured the Savage, Browning, and Colt for $500 apiece, you will not be too far off. The Remington .22 maybe $100.
Plus or minus a good deal, but these are not rare items worth a lot of money.
Look them up in Blue Book, nearly any gun dealer that does trades will have a copy so as to prove his is worth more than yours; or check the advertisements on Gunsamerica.com and closed auctions on Gunbroker.com and Auctionarms.com. A real appraisal would cost more than I would think it worth on common stuff like this.
