Pistol Storage
 
5 Attachment(s)
I have been looking for something to assist in the storage of pistols in the safe. I have been using Bore Stores, they work real well especially if you are going to stack them. The only problem is identifying which pistol is in which Bore Store. I thought about using some sort of velcro that can be written on but that still wouldn't work for me as I would still have to remove some to get to the ones in the back. The Armory Racks looked pretty good so I ordered a couple and I think they will be perfect for what I want to do. Sorry for the low quality pics,to much moisture to go outside.

I have a couple of those racks and they are very handy. Your three 1908s really caught my eye...the 1912 looks particularly nice.

I bought an Armory Rack a while back, and it worked so well that I bought a few more, then a few more, and now I have all my handguns on Armory Racks. The guns are packed like sardines, but they are still easy to get in and out of the rack. Now I can put 8 guns on a shelf that previously held 6. :thumbup:

Quite useful, I had something very similar, but at a certain point I had to discard the idea of using a rack like that as it was taking too much room in my safe.

I use bore stores on all my pistols and the way I label them is to use a labeling gun and label one of those plastic tabs on page seperators that I have cut off the top then staple it to the borestore near the top curve of the flap so I can see it on the shelf.

Thanx for posting this - I was so impressed I went and bought a "4 banger" Armory Rack!

John Sabato 10-17-2013 02:33 PM

Only FOUR? Surely four Lugers will not be the end of your Luger addiction... you should change your order to at least EIGHT! :D

Zorba 10-17-2013 03:46 PM

Yea, yea! ;)

zormpas, we are shipping your rack tomorrow.


Here’s another example of the rack density, showing P.38s on an 8-Gun rack with a tray for numbered and spare magazines.

Thanks, we are collectors first, and got into designing and building racks because we couldn't find any way to efficiently store handguns that we were satisfied with. One thing led to another and now we are in the Armory Rack business. It's been fun and we've received a lot of positive feedback.

Received my Armory Rack today. Very nicely made, heavy duty product. It isn't a recycled dishwasher rack! Loaded it up with 3 pistols and it works great! The padded tray is a worthwhile addition at minimal cost.

I guess I *could* carp about it not fitting my .17 Luger BB pistol, but the 4th position is already reserved for a Ruger Mk III I'm jonesing after... ;)

Ron Wood 10-22-2013 01:15 AM

A: As youprobably have found out, you can't fit your .17 Luger BB pistol on the rack.
B: You will have to pull the red end cap off of the rack to fit a Ruger MK III on the rack. Anything smaller than a .32 cal. won't go with the cap on and a .32 is a really tight fit. They ain't made for mouse guns.
Having said that, they are really swell for .380 and up. A good product, well made and reasonably priced.

Zorba 10-22-2013 10:50 AM

Yes of course. I was being facetious about the BB pistol! :thumbsup:

The rod itself is 0.20", so you'll be able to use the rack for any caliber down to .22 if you order it without the sleeve and cap. You have that option when you order it, so I ordered a few of each. I also have a 2-gun rack on my work bench, one with sleeve and cap, the other one without. It's great to have a place to put your gun when you're done working on it, it keeps it away from the dirt and nastiness on the bench. :thumbup:
