Trailrider #896 Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 (Don't have a photo.) Reminds me of my Moisin/Nagant rifle which is set up as a floor lamp! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 I rescued a Connecticut Arms Co "Hammond Bulldog" single shot.44 rim fire derringer (biggest damn derringer you ever saw) from a demeaning life as a table lamp. It had what I believe was an original nickel plate finish, which made it very rare, and before being converted had about a 90% finish. The innards had ben stripped and filled with something like J B Weld, and two holes had been drilled and tapped to mount it to the oak base. All in all it had a beautiful external appearance, but it was ruined as a collector's item. None of the conversion is very obvious unless you look closely. I gave $10.00 for it at a yard sale in Pomona in 1995, did a very quick and easy clean up and it is still a place holder in my collection with a place of honor in a frame with four other guns.

Sixgun Sheridan Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 I expect somebody to come out with a floor lamp conversion kit for AR-15s soon. "What do you mean officers?!? I don't have any assault weapons! Now excuse me while I turn out the lights and go back to bed.". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shotgun Willie Nelson Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 Looks like it could also be used for a single rifle rack, huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Riot Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 I knew a guy in NC that had a shotgun lamp. It was a fully functional shotgun. The lamp portion went into the double barrels. The cord basically dangled but was hidden between the barrels and loosely secured at the base. The base had a stand to hold the butt and support the shotgun. He didn’t keep it loaded but there was a box of shells in the end table drawer next to it. It was nicely done. Wish I would have taken a picture of it.
