Display cabinets can be found in allot of places. If you want local, the Lowe's & Home Depot near where I live carry them as well as safes. WalMart also has them.

Online, I'd check Natchez Shooters Supplies (http://www.natchezss.com) or Midway ( www. midwayusa.com) .
I believe Sportsmans Guide also has them ( http://www.sportsmansguide.com) .

When all else fails, Google has never steered me wrong! That's how I found GTA.

You could also try Craigslist ( http://www.craigslist.org) There's usually someone there selling or trading something you may want!


God Luck!

I found one on E-Bay and Wal-Mart but returned the walmart one. It was the kind you store your rifles in upside down.  I've since had a hell of a time finding anything here in the Urban N.E. area so I went to Home depot and bough some scrap wood to build my own.  Total cost was $2.50 since I bought green end remnant cuts by the custom board cutting saw @ .50 cents ea. It took about two hours to build.



The top one is from E-bay the bottom is the home built one. If you're thinking of building one I can send more detailed pics.

Looks really good. I used to buy the remnants all the time and a while back HD etc. no longer sell the cutoffs. I need to make a small 3 or 4 gun vertical one to have by the door.

Very nice Dan. Since I have moved to my new place, I have been waiting for you to show me how to make a wall rack..:) I have a load of air rifles and they are every where in the house..:) Now that you have shown your plans for making a wall unit I will have to get busy making one for myself. Of course it will have to go up stairs because there would be more wall space available..:) Both racks are nice Dan.



Thanks for sharing.
