I've had the doubles, and rifles, that are in my safe muzzle down for roughly 25 years.The safe is carpet lined on floor and all interior walls. I've never opened the safe and seen where one has fallen over on another. It just doesn't happen.

Newton's First Law of Motion states that an object in motion tends to stay in motion unless an external force acts upon it. Similarly, if the object is at rest, it will remain unless an unbalanced force acts upon it. Newton's First Law of Motion is also known as the Law of Inertia. What Newton's First Law is saying is that objects behave predictably.

Pretty sure guns are not exempt from this. If the gun is in a balanced state when you close the safe it will be in a balanced state when you open it. Nothing nefarious will be going on in there just because you can't see them, and I'm pretty sure the safe isn't going to be acted upon by any outside force sufficient to cause guns to fall over.
