Deker, I'm unable to send you a PM, can you send me an email address so we can talk about gun cabinets?

 

Cheers,

PS, how often do you clean your gun cabinet? LOL

 

 

Here's another one which will cause some debate, ALL my guns get stored in the cabinet in their Slips.

 

They are all clean and DRY and reached ambient temperature first. That way there is next to no chance of and cabinet marks on the guns and I just grab what I want and go.

 

Works for me, I suspect others may have a different view.

 

PS. They ALL keep the moderators on as well but the centrefires are stored muzzle down and the rimfires muzzle up, (top to tail), that also makes them fit better!

A very old friend of mine ( now deceased ) used to do exactly the same, he died in his eighties and had been shooting since sixteen. Never seemed to cause any issues with his rifles either. Just something you said in your post jogged my memory, he used to say " I keep'um ready to go, just put my hand in and pull out the one I want... "
