Build your gun vault now, not later. Don't worry about the rust.

I dislike the whole idea of "storage", I would much rather display my guns, pay the insurance costs for loss rather than locking them away in a supposedly fire proof/theft resistant safe. If I had small children or lived in an high crime area I'm sure my attitude would be different.

I always store my guns in a Lockable Safe wiped down with Gun Oil , Muzzle down and Keep two out for displaying on the top of two different cabinets in my Little Gun Room and those guns are In their Leather Cases with the Lid Open for display ! Then switch them out every week or so , Our Daughter is grown so no Children here to be concerned about the two out of the safe ! When she was younger and we seemed to have kids around all the time I locked up every gun and even had a safe for all the ammo !!!!!!

The Old Pine Cabinet. Can't imagine not having 'em out where I can see 'em.

There is a couple of reasons I store my shotguns muzzle down, one is to stop from crushing the rubber recoil pad and the other is gravity keeps the oil from going into the stock.

[QUOTE=David Livesay;424594]Can you explain why it's best to store muzzle down please?[/QUOT
Most of our older Guns already have oil soaking in the heads of their stocks from standing upright in a corner or gun cabinet for years so the reason I store them muzzle down is to prevent it from getting worse ! |
