They don't charge by the word here. A reasonable description would help. But anyway, Turner Kirkland was the founder of Dixie Gun Works in Union City, TN, circa the 1950's. He died a few years ago but his son runs the business. Dunno their web site but dollars to donuts it's dixiegunworks.com
You can ask them, or provide a description/pictures here and somebody might know more.

It is dixiegun.com
Both addresses work. emery
Still looking for a ballpark figure for value for the estate Thanks
In that case, you'll have to give lots more details - just what model, caliber and type of rifle does your friend own? Turner Kirkland put his name and that of his company on a slew of firearms since founding Dixie in 1954. And his company is still doing that today. You'll need to list all markings and a detailed condition analysis. And the best description will include a number of high-quality pictures.
