I signed up for the free portion of the NRA insurance when I got the email, but the I have yet to figure out how to actually make a claim and with whom. I think I got a confirmation email back but that was it. What further turned me off is that I continue to get soliciations for the insurance. It appears no one is talking to one another. I want to say I couldn't easily find out how to add insurance when I followed their link either. The whole thing seemed sketchy.
I did the same thing and also added replacement costs for each item. Sure, that number changes over time, but at least it's all set up for adjustments.

I think this is just an overall good reminder that insurance is one of the key components of overall coverage. I know most of you guys have more than $2500 worth of firearms, heck that's the cost of one very high end AR. I respond to burglaries all the time where people may lose a couple of handguns and a few rifles. The cost of replacement far exceeds the basic coverages. Most of the guns are stored under a bed or in a closet.
As someone else already mentioned, a good safe is also part of that equation.
We live in a nicer neighborhood, have several safes, alarm systems, camera security, and great insurance.

Very good advice.
Never ceases to amaze me when you see 30k worth of weapons in a 1k "safe".

A guy on TOS had an anecdote about using the firearm coverage that comes with NRA membership, and he said it was very easy to work with (which surprised me). From what I understand, and don't quote me on this, Lifetime Members get access to some sort of higher end coverage for a small premium. If you're an NRA member it's probably worth checking out.
I was thinking about firearm insurance recently as well. My agent and I have talked about guns before, but never gotten into detail. It's something I need to get up to speed on. As was mentioned earlier, I'm guessing I probably have a firearms maximum pay-out that a high end AR would consume completely.
