I'm not the FBI, I promise. Lol. I just want to build a gun wall and I'm a cheap ass.

Yep. Hmmm. Cause federals don't monitor pro gun sites fishing for (real or imagined) violations. Just saying.

That looks AWESOME.

Looking at the finished pictures makes me a little sad in two ways though: 1, it makes think of the phrase “those are amateur numbers” when I look in my safe. 2, it makes think, “Dang, I *really* need to move to a free state!”

Thanks for sharing your excellent project and providing further motivation!

I appreciate it slosig, it’s a work in progress.

Crush,

By the panels on Amazon and search thingiverse for open armory.

Don’t worry fellas, all my shit is legal.

OttoSig - That is awesome!

I wish I had a place in my home where I could do something like that. (Translation: I wish I had a place in my home that my wife would allow me to do something like that.) Big Grin

Awesome - I see them. And I ordered a elegoo printer a few days ago so we'll see if I can get it to work. Thanks!

I still read but mostly stopped interacting on forums for similar reasons a little over four years ago...

I had to build an office in my garage when we had a third child and it is slowly becoming an office / gun room since it stays locked and alarmed.

If you use pistol hangers or heavy guns increase the infil % to make them a little stronger, I had a pistol mount break with a 1911.

And the Garands could use a beefier mount.

Another thought is to replace the closet door with a Murphy Door or bookshelf. Here is a link -

In my last house I replaced a double closet door with a Murphy Door bookshelf. No visitor ever noticed that there was anything behind it, including multiple real estate agents, potential purchasers and contractors.

So did you close on the sale and then leave the door open to surprise them? That would be a neat surprise!

During the sale, we advised there was a "safe room" and the dimensions, but did not allow anyone to view it. Left it with freshly painted bare walls, finished floor.

You're right, it could have been a real surprise.
