[Thomas L. Benson Sr.]

J.J.Roberts: That must have taken some time and effort to put together. I'm jealous as all get out. I'm sure your not done as it seems you always find something you just can't live without. I had a nice room full at one time but my wife took up quilting and most of my stuff is in boxes and storage but at least she is happy and you know that saying. Thomas

[Thomas L. Benson Sr.]

Sorry guys I got so excited looking I hit the button twice.

[Thomas L. Benson Sr.]

Randy: The same goes for your collection. I had to blow up your display because it looked like a Thompson on the bottom shelf. Thomas

[Troy Miller]

JJ nice collection i really like the bullet one with the guy shooting.

[Craig Larter]

Few from my Cave

[James J. Roberts]

Craig,That a nice selection of decoys and gun catalogs. J.J.

[FRANK HALSEY]

Here is my man cave. 10 Years of collecting.

[Bill Murphy]

Frank, what discipline resulted in your medals?

[FRANK HALSEY]

I have been shooting sporting clays for 10 years now. Started in "E" class and worked my way up to Master class. These are a few of the awards. Alot of them you don't see in he pictures. I have 44,000 registered targets with about another 100,000 in practice. I do shoot alot. It is fun to travel to all the different clubs. I do like meeting other shooters. It is alot of fun.

[Rich Anderson]

Mine is in use constantly and is way to messy to post pics of. My wife calls it a mess, I prefer the term organized clutter:)

[Randy Davis]

All I wanted was a Bogardus and a Paine...

Trap3

[charlie cleveland]

were to late mills most of us have a woman in our lives...i enjoyed this post....charlie

[charlie cleveland]

fellows all i can say is wow and thanks for getting to look at all of these great man caves...charlie

[James J. Roberts]

Randy,Is it true that the only way the target balls survived was because of the women who would pick them out of the box before hubby when to the trap shoot and pick out a few for decorations for the Christmas tree,nice find. J.J.

[Randy Davis]

J.J. thanks... Not sure, some of the ladies may have used them for that purpose

RD

[Troy Miller]

Yes thank you all for the pictures. I am so jealous because I have just started and only have like 4 pictures to hang nothing old and way cool yet.

[nick balzano]

all you gents have great "man caves". As a Pa. boy, really liked the marbles collection. I have a "cave" also, someday i'll take some pics.

[Dave Purnell]

I have a small 800sf house so the whole thing is my man cave. The cave within the cave is a 4'x4' closet.

[Mills Morrison]

Really nice, Dave!

[Rick Losey]

Dave - please tell me about the longrifle, I can't tell much from the picture, looks newer, mass produced or custom made?

[Dave Purnell]

It's a Pedersoli from Dixie Gun Works. I bought it in the early nineties. It was a reduced price showroom model with handling marks, etc. So, I refinished it, and did some extra stock carving to make it mine.

[John Dallas]

Boy, Do I have good memories of Elliot Island. A good friend of mine is Dave's neighbor. It's a hidden piece of the Eastern Shore's history. (and the duck shooting and soft shell crabbing aren't too bad either!)

I have spent some time over at Wingate, across the water from Elliots Island. I just love that area of Maryland. I wish I had the nerve to buy a piece of it. The Lovely Linda's father spent a lot of time on the top side of Fishing Bay where he enjoyed a duck club there.

I have never been east of Utah . one of these days if i can ever get the time off or come up with enough money would like to make it to the midwest and east coast. unfortunately very limited on time and money. heck it was a stretch and luckley Thomas (old geezer) let me pay him 300. up front on the parker i bought from him and pay him the rest a couple of weeks later.:shock:

[Dave Purnell]

I have very limited wall space so try to make the most of it for my interests.

[Bill Murphy]

Is that Muderlak's Sharkey squirrel poster or an original?

[greg conomos]

Here's my man cave...though the guns are kept elsewhere.

[Dave Purnell]

Is that Muderlak's Sharkey squirrel poster or an original?

I got it from Muderlak at the Vintager's.

[Dean Romig]

Nice little mortar you have there Dave - have you fired it?




.

[Dave Purnell]

[QUOTE=Dean Romig;185692]Nice little mortar you have there Dave - have you fired it?

Yeah, it's black powder of course. It has a 2 1/4" bore. I found that a racquet ball is a perfect size projectile for proper windage. It has a powder chamber 7/8" diameter by 1" long. That much powder will launch the ball about 200 yards, ignited by fuse.

[Randy Davis]

Trap Loads, Targets and The Traps...

Trap3

[Troy Miller]

Trap that collection of glass balls is very nice

[Troy Miller]

My brother just gave me this mount to add to man cave

[Troy Miller]

every time i post pictures they are not facing the correct way how do i change that?

[Dave Noreen]

All i can say after looking a Larry's collection is WOW:shock::bowdown:

[wayne goerres]

Makes my man cave look like a hovel.

[Henry McRoberts]

Craig, very nice collection of Illinois River decoy's. I also collect Ill. river decoys and calls as well as other birds that I just like.

[Craig Larter]

Henry: Thanks I really like Illinois River decoys and have concentrated on Bert Graves. I do have a few Delaware River and coastal NJ birds (both places I hunted ducks as a young man). I am lucky my wife loves the decoys and we display them in the main living area of the house. However, she gets equal wall space for her flow blue china collection. Happy wife, happy life!

[charlie cleveland]

this man cave thing just keeps getting better...ive started on my secound man cave the first one is full.....charlie

[Gary Carmichael Sr]

Well might as well join the crowd, posted a couple several years ago, gary

[Gary Carmichael Sr]

three more hopefully

[Mills Morrison]

Awesome Gary!

[Troy Miller]

Dang Gary
That's a very nice collection. I will be lucky to own two doubles.

[Dean Romig]

Exceptionally nice Gary.






.

[Craig Larter]

Gary: Very very nice. I like the way you have your desk set up in the middle of the room so you can make use of all the wall space. You have a very impressive collection thanks for posting the pictures. It's always interesting to see how others display guns.

[wayne goerres]

Gary. I saw something in your collection that sure resembles a sharps.

[Wayne Owens]

Here is another man room.

[Wayne Owens]

Here are additional photos of the man room.

[Wayne Owens]

A few more photos.

[Mills Morrison]

Love the turkey call collection

[Gary Carmichael Sr]

A man cave is a place a fellow can go and unwind from the BS of the world, gary

[Gary Carmichael Sr]

Wayne you are right it is a Shiloh Sharps, 45-70 34" heavy barrel, these are fun guns to shoot but kick like the dickens! Gary

[Troy Miller]

A man cave is a place a fellow can go and unwind from the BS of the world, gary
Here Here Gary couldn't agree with you more

[wayne goerres]

They are fun to shoot and it seems that I cant resist them. I own four of them. The largest of them is a C Sharps in 50/90.

[Gary Carmichael Sr]

I have 2 the other is a Pedersoli it has 4 buffalo in gold and a moose in gold on it nice gun that shoots well too! gary

[Rich Anderson]

My man cave is the basement a suitable place for most things C.O.B. I just got the basement finished about a year ago and we (this means the wife) haven't decided on flooring yet.

[Rich Anderson]

some more...it's a big basement:)

[FRANK HALSEY]

I had a Shiloh Sharps in a very large 50/140. You want to talk about a kick. I had a guy beg me to shot it and I warned him about the way the gun jump up when the 725 gr. bullet leave. "no problem" was his reply. The rest of the day, he walked around with a black eye. It was not too hard on the shoulder but boy does it jump at the muzzle. It also was not cheap to shoot. Back about 15 years ago, I bought 2 boxes of ammo for it and was glad to get them. They were $125 per 20 rounds. Frank

[Rich Anderson]

Now that the Martha Stewart portion of our tour is over here is where the real work of load development, ammo manufacture, storage and just general overall gun stuff goes. And yes it pretty much always looks like this.

[Troy Miller]

COB
I really like the african mounts. very nice

[wayne goerres]

Boy those last two pic's looks a lot like my loading room except I keep the bullets,cases,and powder in another room which also happens to look like a mess. I load for all my sharps. Buying black powder ammunition is royally expensive. I had also owned a 45/120 and I am happy to report that someone else owns it now. The 50/90 is all I care for.

[John Dallas]

Are any of your guns C. Sharps guns out of Montana? The only one I have seen was spectacular

[Bill Holcombe]

Since some are sharing art work.

I have the cowan print, but it isn't back from the framer yet so have to settle for the image.

[Troy Miller]

Like the flowing well saw that when you first posted it. also really like that last picture of the dogs and hunters. i have an Alan Brown signed and numbered print of a brittany pointing a pheasant along a fence post.

[Bill Holcombe]

It's a Cowan print entitled Bad Windmill.

[Gary Carmichael Sr]

Wayne, Yes the one in the gun room in the photo, ammo 165.00 for 50 rounds 405 grain, Gary

[Rich Anderson]

Wayne I load for everything. 12,16,20,28,7410 for shotguns. The hulls and wads are kept in the shed they just take up more space than I have. Center fire goes from 22 Hornet to a 450-400 Nitro express. Factory ammo for the 450-400 is $7/round:eek:

[Mike Koneski]

COB, where's the mount of the African poacher?? :rotf: I loved that story!!

[Rich Anderson]

It's funny you mention that. He's probably been recycled back into the bush. The original plan was to hunt a Lioness and if successful I was going to mount her life size stalking a native. The native would of course be a mannequin but he was to be in the position of taking care of business:rolleyes: There wasn't enough left of the poachers dog to do anything with but the night shift of the bush cleaned him up.

[John Taddeo]

One of my favorite man cave prints.. Brian Jarvi's Parker and Woodcock

[Dean Romig]

Very Nice! A late Trojan twenty-bore for woodcock is good medicine!






.

[Troy Miller]

John that is a very nice print

[Bill Holcombe]

That is a very nice one. Went looking for it online but no dice.

[Leighton Stallones]

Here's mine!

[Troy Miller]

Leighton
you have lot of stuff there in your cave. like the leather and wood high back chair. what is the head mount next to to right door?

[Leighton Stallones]

That's about a third of the stuff in the room. That is a Javelina head next to the door
that I killed in So. Texas years ago with my M 29 Smith..44

[Troy Miller]

Some new additions

[nick balzano]

And my wife thinks I have a lot of "man-toys"!! Pictures of these assorted "man caves" are totally awesome, makes mine look like "kiddie city". Congrats to all the posters.
