I do. Just put up a 12 gauge coach gun near my PC desk. Maybe it's a lost art form or I don't get out enough. I would still like to get a cabinet with the glass doors and drawers underneath that display six or eight rifles with beautiful wood. Yes, I know they are easy to steal but you can't admire your rifles and shotguns locked in a safe. I long for the old days, a rifle in the back window of a pickup. | ||

I remember my dad did. And most trucks had one or 2 hanging in the rear window. Miss those days. ----------------------------------------- Roll Tide! Glock Certified Armorer NRA Certified Firearms Instructor | |||

Just my old Model 58 Remington shotgun. Too long for the safe and other stuff taking up all the room anyway. Occasionally one of my .22's if I'm having a varmint infestation. Rare occurrence any more since I don't keep any critters/feed around. Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent. | |||

I hear ya...I would love to be able to look up and admire some of the finer long guns in my collection, alas, mine are all in the safe. I feel the need to do whatever I can to keep them out of the wrong hands is too great. I have one of those really cool deer leg gun racks that my grandpa had made too....

I wanted to hang a couple AR's above the bed. Alas, Mrs Fenris put the kibash on that idea. God Bless and Protect the Once and Future President, Donald John Trump. | |||

I have a Mosin Nagant that was gifted to me by my OIC when I retired that I hung beneath a picture of my team from Desert Storm. I do intend to replace that with an M16A2 clone at some point. _______________________________ The artist formerly known as AllenInWV | |||

No, I do not. If somebody breaks in while I'm gone I want them to at least work a little to get my guns (locked in safe) instead of simply grabbing them off the wall. The only exception would be a non-functional replica, but that would clash with my dogs playing poker pictures. | |||

I will once I install that Vault Door I have planned for the 'Armory'.

I have 2 inoperable firearms on display. My local ffl took them as part of an estate, and the chambers were drilled in multiple places for scope mounts, and he felt they were unsafe. He transfered them to me, and i removed the firing pins and hung them. 1 is an Arisaka 99 hung in my den over a wooden Gadsden flag, the other is a old Stevens hung in my man cave. Anything that's operable is in safes unless it's on me. I shall respect you until you open your mouth, from that point on, you must earn it yourself. | |||

When I was a kid and only had a few they hung on my bedroom wall. I still have a 12 gun cabinet in the house. It got kicked out of the living room many years ago but i have it in a back room just off my bedroom. It stays full and the rest stays in the gun safe in one of the garage closets. FYI I live in a gated community in a reasonably safe area of the world so theft isn't a problem or worry for me. If I lived anywhere else the gun cabinet would only hold Bb/pellet guns and such. I installed two short Golden Rods in the cabinet so the guns aren't as exposed to moisture and temp swings. | |||

Hell no. Other than my carry gun all of mine are in safes. Not going to make it easy for criminals. "But, as luck would have it, he stood up. He caught that chunk of lead."

I bought a black powder rifle from a friend who was in a bit of a spot. I figured I'd make some nice silver hooks and mount it over the fireplace. Before I got the hooks made, I lent the rifle to another friend for deer season. He's still got it and is filling his freezer. I may end up gifting it to him and abandoning my plan. God bless America. | |||

No. When I was in high school in the late 70s, it wasn't uncommon for pickup trucks owned by junior or senior boys to have a rack in the window, often with a lever-action rifle in it, when they came to school. I'd inherited my grandfather's old rifle a few years earlier and wanted to display it in my room, so one of my shop projects was building a rifle rack for my bedroom. My dad liked the look of the rack but said putting a rifle on it made it too easy for thieves to steal. He had a good point and the lesson was learned. *** "Aut viam inveniam aut faciam (I will either find a way or make one)." -- Hannibal Barca | |||
