Tascosa, SASS# 24838 913 Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Wouldn't work for me. I'd have to buy more guns to fill it and probably get shot or divorced. Link to post Share on other sites

CurlyDrew42 74 Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Need a spare wall for archery and knives but some of those nice wood cabinet jobs with the island in the middle are pretty nice. The one with the brick is nice too. Link to post Share on other sites

Forty Rod SASS 3935 7,195 Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 All those many guns and only about two dozen I have any desire to own. My gun room is much smaller, but I know every gun in it by name and family history. Link to post Share on other sites
Loophole LaRue, SASS #51438 3,232 Posted October 9, 2017 Author Share Posted October 9, 2017 I tend to favor the one with the fireplace flanked by glass front cases, with double recliners and a Remington on the counter. I really want a Western theme with Western guns. The black rifles and modern pistols can stay in a safe. Now, if I can just figure out a way to finance the addition to the cottage, complete with gun room built into lower level garage, with vault door and independent HVAC......

Smuteye John SASS#24774 2,791 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 I'm partial to the ones with the center island where there's someplace to work on them without taking them all the way to the shop. Gotta have drawers or cabinets below the racks for accessories, too. Link to post Share on other sites
J-BAR #18287 6,005 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 I suspect many of those are commercial showrooms...impressive and beautiful in any case. I'm glad collectors can indulge themselves, but I am a shooter first and foremost. There are a very few firearms in my possession that I am "caretaking" as family heirlooms. Most of my guns are working guns... competition, hunting, or plinking. I simply don't have enough years left to live to shoot all the firearms in those large collections! I would rather they be owned and enjoyed by folks who try to wear them out!! Thanks for posting the collage. It's encouraging to know that we live in a time when such collections can exist.

Birdgun Quail, SASS #63663 3,265 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Several years ago on our 25th wedding anniversary, my wife and I met an internet friend, Steve, who worked in the Holland & Holland gun room in New York City. My friend was handing me guns out of those cabinets like I would have handed out guns from my gun safe. After relaying a story about me shooting Lizzie's first bird with a .410, Steve handed me an exquisite little .410 SxS . I took it to my wife who was sitting in one of corner chairs shown in the photo below. I showed her the .410 and she asked, "How much is it?" I replied, "Oh, only $67,000." There were just a few nice bird guns in that gun room... Memorable gun room experience. t Link to post Share on other sites
