How do you store your guns

[JeeperCreeper]

I want to see how you store your guns. Wall mounted displays, shelves, pegboards, stacked away neatly in gearbags, or maybe just a random pile in the closet (you know who you are.) I've been using shelves but I am taking up more room than I need to, so I want to make some sort of rack system for mine.

Got a bunch of the rectangle "sleeve"/pouch/laptop bag on sale a while back ... And luggage tags to know what's inside without opening every single one 😅

For the rifles with stock, I got tired of disassembling them every time, so I saves cases from tradeshow spotlight.

If you look around you can get good stuff for real cheap ...
(I can take pictures if it doesn't make sense)

Pegboard.... although I'm running out of room, I'll need to either sell a few or expand the pegboard setup.

It's a mess.

[Jordan]

Yup! Although I've changed it over to a SC setup now.

[JeeperCreeper]

How many shots you get out of a 12?

[Jordan]

'Bout 20 give or take.

The house I moved into had a gun closet already, so added some pegboard and put the pretty stuff on the wall, then I have a few shelves to the side for air tanks and masks, and then larger plastic bins for the majority of it. That's just the keep pile though. Things have spilled out into the room so I have a giant bin of misc crap, then a bin on top for current projects, a nice little table beside my bench for accumulating more crap on and then my work bench which has way too much scatter across it. Also fit patio cushions for the winter and kid's sporting equipment awkwardly to one side.
I've also slowly pushed non-paintball related stuff out of the room into the main workshop and will continue until I sell off more gear or I buy more.... and we all know they that's going to go.

Crates with some padding for the most part, may setup more pegboard in a new house.

I have 6 more crates at this point I think since I made the thread:

I use a file cabinet.

I'm not taking pictures of that dumpster fire.

There are bins in the shed of doom as well. It has earned the nickname.

[RAZRBAKK]

I don't know why, but this is the most MCB response to this thread.

[Altec]

Plus my gear bag, what’s on my desk, and whatever is scattered around.

[Grendel]

Laptop sleeves and either in my travel bag or in action packers on a shelf. I just bought a cabinet that I am planning on modifying for more convenient storage of my markers.

[moonweasel]

Watching with interest for mounting ideas,
currently most are wrapped up in boxes in the wardrobe, but I am slowly building a lockable display wall in my games room/man cave area

Plano 1404-02 four pistol cases.

Periodically you can find them on sale for less than $20US....

I bought 4 of the same Plano cases over 20 years ago from Walmart, they're still as strong as the day I bought them. They are a bit bulky but I mostly use mine for storage compared to something I bring to the field.

[cougar20th]

All my guns are stored in a dresser I bought just to store them. Each drawer has a layer of foam in the bottom then guns more foam and more guns. Covered by a layer of jerseys. Depending on the guns there are 2 or 3 layers of guns. Generally a dozen guns per drawer.

This is the bottom layer of the automag drawer. There would be foam and another layer of guns then a cover of jerseys.

[Cdn_Cuda]

Those are way to pretty to be kept in a dark box!

[JeeperCreeper]

Yeah but when he opens that drawer up it's like a treasure chest

[cougar20th]

All my paintball guns use to be on display in a hutch in the formal living room. Then we had a kid and everything was moved up to hobby area.

[Roger7pball]

Old picture but mostly the same now, all hanging out in the basement.

From Sean Barlow, they were on Redbubble for a minute but got removed. If you have bookface you can message him directly.

[Brokeass_baller]

Doc did some x-ray pics back in the day. Hit him up. He might still have some.

[The Jayster]

That's freakin' awesome

[DocsMachine]

I store all mine heaped in a pile, same way I store my DVDs, canned food, spare gold, loose change, corpses of my enemies and all the extra Ferraris I'm not driving that week.



Doc.

[Cdn_Cuda]

I like to think of it as the Dragon method.

[JeepDVLZ45]

I feel like “Disassembled, in a pile of parts shoved in a bin” isn’t the answer you are looking for….

My markers without stocks are hanging on a pegboard (only have space for 3 or 4).



My markers with stocks are stored vertically on a jerry-rigged “shelf”/“”gun-rack” thingy I built to give them somewhere to live (when I went to take a photo, I realized that my other markers with stocks are “disassembled, in a pile….” 😂



I really need to figure out how to store my barrels/barrel backs. They’re taking up valuable marker space on my pegboard.

[Jordan]

I have a "dresser" made of plastic - it's basically a 4 drawer set of bins - that I store my extra barrels/hoppers/misc in.

I try to keep markers with their associated barrels otherwise.

[lhamilton1807]

Most of my markers are low-end mechs that I loan out to friends who don’t have their own gear. I have two soft airsoft gun bags with barrels strapped to the insides (this keeps the guns shorter for storage). The guns are all stored wrapped in Goodwill-procured camouflage jackets. I stuff one marker in each sleeve and then roll them toward each other. The wrapped guns are then stacked in a big plastic tote for easy transport. This keeps the guns from getting scratched and dinged to smithereens. Masks and hoppers are in other totes. CO2 tanks are stored in a plastic milk crate.

Everything is portable and able to be stored on a shelf in the shed. Just where the wife likes it 😂
