I believe with a lot the size of 40 guns you could have your own auction. I would contact your local auctioneers, especially those who deal in gun auctions. Many of them use the live auction format and internet auction by Proxybid at the same time which makes for some high prices.
A local auction house has a bi-annual consignment gun auction. The last time along with consignments they sold about 50 guns from a local gun shop that went out of business. They did very well.
I do agree with CWKahrFan, get some help from your Dad's old pals. No matter which way you decide to go with the sale.
