ROA Antique Arms has one of the UK's largest collections of Antique and Historic Weapons online. Our collection includes fine antique and deactivated firearms, swords, bayonets and other items of military, historic and sporting interest, and in particular Continental pieces.

As pationate collectors for nearly forty years we pride ourselves in the fact that all of our pieces are genuine and original and are purchased from reputable sources around the world. Our site is regularly being updated with new items so please feel free to browse. However, if there is anything you are looking for in particular please let us know. 

We are also happy to ship worldwide from our bases in the UK and Europe. Please contact us if you have any questions.

"There is nothing quite like a fine antique weapon to evoke feelings of nostalgia.  To think of the skilled craftsmen who made it and for whom, where it has been and in which conflicts it may have played its part.  Did it sail the high seas, defend a great nation in battle, or someone’s honour at dawn?  Not only is it an item of beauty and history but often one which has endured the tests of time against all odds.  Just imagine what stories it could tell….

Hear what some of our customers have to say.

'Just a short note to thank you both. I purchased three pistols from ROA and can not find words that give justice to the fantastic service they provided to me. The guns were far superior then photos could show. I would highly recommend them to anybody looking to buy from their site.
I think the products are fairly priced, a great shopping experience and will be buying from them in the future. Very fast postage.'

Mr M, Selby

'I must say it's a great little pistol and good value for money. I'm very pleased with it. It's nice to see a dealer that isn't afraid to sell a few lower end items for us impoverished novice collectors! Please keep them coming, I'll be watching.'

Mr B, Clevedon

'Just to let you know that The Harkom Sporting Rifle has arrived, and that I am delighted with every aspect of it.

Thanks yet again for all your efforts, and I hope to be buying more items from you in the near future.'

Mr J, Bath

Just to say that the parcel arrived safely today, and that I’m very pleased with the Sea-Service.

Mr M, Anstruther

The rifle arrived safe and sound today - very many thanks. It's a superb example, and I'm extremely pleased with it. I look forward greatly to shooting it at my club in due course, once placed on ticket.

Mr H, East Lothian
