BurtonRWWall-mounted firearms storage - who do we like?
I'm going to be using a wall-mounted rack/storage system for my arsenal. I've looked at a few different systems, but wondered if anyone has actual experience with them.
Mostly, I'm thinking about
Hold Up Displays or
GallowTech, but I'm open to any other suggestions.
This will be installed in a secured room, so no need to discuss the security aspects of not using a traditional safe (although if there are any systems with some sort of integrated locking mechanism, I'm always interested in redundancy).
Thanks in advance.

architectI think the traditional cross bar on an open front or glass fronted rifle case is to keep junior from taking them down to show off to his friends, not to prevent theft, they are usually pretty easily defeated by simple brute force, or screwdriver undoing the hasp/hinge. With security not being top priority, aesthetics may argue for a nicely-finished traditional wood cabinet.

YellowJacketCable through the trigger guards or mag wells of AR's would be good redundancy.
I like that Hold Up Display walnut panel. Looks nice. There are other similar storage systems like that not specifically marketed for guns. Might save you a few bucks. Search slatwall on your engine of choice.

smschulzI've seen the Hold Up Display before and like it quite a bit.
Been considering it but trying to see if I could do it myself cheaper or better.

ArtieSIf I didn't care all that much about looks, and was more interested in utility, I'd use 1/4 peg board with gun related hardware.
