Default Nice Racks

Isn't it more fun to look at a nice rack or two? They come in pairs, you know.

The first rack is nice but the goods appear to be riding a bit low in the saddle so to speak, but that second set is looking really perky, those babies are riding high like they're sitting in a push-up bra!

Here is a photo of a rack that I recently built and use at gun shows as well as in my gun room.

Brian, That's one good looking rack, Looks like it would stand against the wall in a gun room. Do you have any drawings on this as I would love to build a couple Gary

I do not have any drawings. I built it from scratch from my head. It is in a classic mission style, which I really like when it comes to fur studs and interior design. I made the rack to be broken down easily with a very minimal amount of hardware holding it together. That way it can be transported easily. Apart from being a bit heavy. The good thing about this design is that it can be expanded on easil. The one end pillar could easily become a center support and have another 4 foot section of racking added to the other side.

It does work very well on the floor against my wall when it is not at shows.

More nice racks. Thanks to Bruce for putting me in touch with the maker of these great racks. The lighter one I bought from the gentleman and is made of oak. The darker one I had copied and is made of walnut. Seemed fitting....

Brian - Do you clamp your rack to the table at a gun show? I could see some chucklehead knocking it over.

Clamp a Rack? This is beginning to sound like a fetish discussion. Hah!
