try this:

If there are a number of people interested there is a boomershooter member who is an agent. He doesn't write in MN but would get licensed / appointed here if there were enough people to make it worth the expense.

∆∆∆ that is who I use. No experience with claims but their bills come in regularly and without issues :)

One thing I noticed is that they pay out Book value versus NRA pays out Replacement value... not an expert but that could explain the cheaper rates.

The NRA and West Bend are good options.

Just curious who's your homeowners through? I've got American Family and It's been on my todo list for a while to inquire about coverage.

The cost of firearms insurance through my home owners policy is very expensive in my situation and you must also list all your guns and serial numbers plus I have a high deductible.
I am looking into collectibles insurance and also eastern insurance company's now. I haven't made up my mind yet but they are both far cheaper than my homeowner's. I would like to find more info on these company's or others, like how they value your guns when lost or stolen, how claims are handled and so forth. Finding insurance is one thing but finding out how claims are handled is another.
