    Oppressors can tyrannize only when they achieve a standing army, an enslaved press, and a disarmed populace. -- James Madison

    The Constitution shall never be construed to authorize Congress to prevent the people of the United States, who are peaceable citizens, from keeping their own arms. -- Samuel Adams, Debates and Proceedings in the Convention of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, 86-87 (Pearce and Hale, eds., Boston, 1850)

          Took me awhile, but short of having to build my own, I found this: http://www.artdisplay.com/specific-h...gun-stand.html



          I only have a few long arms, and some of them have Knoxx Stocks. I don't feel like store Knoxx stocks vertically. I would think that it would make the spring weaker over time. And I don't want to mount anything to my wall.

            Sense I can't afford a good safe, I'm thinking about building a false corner piece to store my rifles. You'd never be able to tell it doesn't belong. If I do it, I will surely post pics

              I'm too poor to afford a rack. So all the guns just get leaned up against the wall.



              I'm trying to save up for some more wall so the ones on the floor will have something to get leaned up against.


              I'll take some of those off your hands if you like

                Thats a pretty good idea,My grandfather did this way back in the day.He built it through the wall in his bedroom that backed up to the bathroom.Inside the bathroom it just looked like part of a towel closet,but from the bedroom it was a fully functional gun cabinet.The frame around the door was cleverly hidden with a chair rail and some moulding.Too bad My brother took it out when He remodeled the bathroom (the house has been in the family for 80+ years)

                  When I get a house, I'm actually planning on putting any gun safes against the back wall in a closet and building a false wall (that of course has a way of opening) in front to hide them. Just another way to keep any potential burglars from finding them.

                    My friend Steve brought it back to life last year, when he saw how worn it looked. He sanded the weathered plywood, brushed on a coupe coats of varnish, replaced some of the hardware. It's just as good as new.

                    I have eye hook bolts on each the side plate. They are to facilitate bungee cords strapped across each side, to prevent rifle falling off the rack with rough handling.




                    The only thing I would change, are the rifle slots on the top plate. I would stagger the cut-outs, so that the barrels/handguards of the rifles opposite don't interfere with each other.

                    You got some plans for others to make one?

                          Good heavens I have always loved large caliber weapons.

                            I just winged it, I customized it for the type of EBRs I have. Most of the racks I saw were made for longer/taller firearms, my sub guns wouldn't have fit. So I made mine shorter to fit the carbines that I have. It's all made from a 4' X 4' sheet of plywood.

                            * Make a box/suitcase, make it wide enough to fit your uprights.
                            * make the uprights as tall as you need for your firearms.
                            * make the horizontal piece for the handguard slots. I'd stagger the handguard cut outs, don't cut it like the way I did. I made mine symmetrical and the rifles sometimes interfere with each other that way.

                              A gun rack... a gun rack. I don't even own *a* gun, let alone many guns that would necessitate an entire rack. What am I gonna do... with a gun rack?
