How do you store your Lugers? Bore Stores bags etc?

Well, now that I've gone from zero to 3 Lugers in a few months (no bills paid though ha ha ha), I'm curious how some of you guys store your Lugers, how you keep them.

The "breathable, silicone cloth lined" Bore Stores bags (Brownell's etc) seem to be a pretty good inexpensive solution, then setting the pistols in the gun safe etc.

The super nice condition 1970's 6" Mauser re-issue (Po-8 not Swiss grip) I got recently came with a nice wood presentation case (not original to the gun, but a pretty nice one), that's a pretty good storage method, but then one is confronted with getting several of the nice wood boxes, do some of you go that route?

I know some keep their pistols in general in a zipper bag like the Ace bags etc, though cloth lined the foam included in the construction makes me wonder if they breath well enough to prevent rust (or a vapor chip in there might be ideal...)

What do you do, how to you store, or display as the case may be?

Thanks in advance, got my mismatched $605 shooter in today, pretty nice and tight mechanically!
