Randymanpipe Posted August 19, 2015 Posted August 19, 2015 Hey chaps, I just wondered how all you fine folk store your grown up toys when at home? Having a nagging wife who's not a huge fan of having RIF indoors and two young children I'm in the process of making a custom lockable cupboard to fit in my utility room. Just curious to see how everyone else manages it and if anyone else would be interested in one?
n1ckh Posted August 19, 2015 Posted August 19, 2015 A mate of mine being a chippie has made a weapons & kit cupboard out of MDF & has done it a way that it blends in with all the furniture He's done it in an alcove and has disguised the front as a normal display cupboard so you can't see any evidence of the alcove As I don't have the room in my bedroom, I've got 2 cupboards with a work bench between them, all the small items go under the lowest drawer in both cupboards & rifles, bags & other large items are under my bed so I have it on wheels to roll out Randymanpipe 1
Happy Posted August 19, 2015 Posted August 19, 2015 Guns: In hard cases or boxes under the bed... Or in bits on my work desk. Gear: Has it's own dedicated set of drawers and shelf in my wardrobe. Ghillie Suit: In the shed for a very good reason. Randymanpipe 1
Supporters NickM Posted August 19, 2015 Supporters Posted August 19, 2015 Cupboard above the stairs in the spare room has a lock. So guns go in their bags and my plate carrier in there. If I had kids and I no longer had a spare room for office/library/armoury I would build a lockable container in my shed that would be screwed to the wall or I have ideas for a box that would fit under the bed. I have a chest of drawers that contains most of the rest of my stuff, ammo, radios spare pouches.
Guest PT247 Posted August 19, 2015 Posted August 19, 2015 all over the place.... advantages of no kids and no misses!
Root Admin proffrink Posted August 19, 2015 Root Admin Posted August 19, 2015 Hard cases or just bags for everything and small padlocks on the zips.
Fatknees Posted August 19, 2015 Posted August 19, 2015 Garage/mancave missus nor kids venture in there, ever!! Randymanpipe 1

n1ckh Posted August 19, 2015 Posted August 19, 2015 I've got kids but they know not to touch any of it without me present My 3 year old daughter loves pulling the trigger on my rifles, she knows where the safety catch is, how to use it & pull the trigger so I say bang when she does Randymanpipe 1
hagar66 Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 All my kids are grown up so don't have problems with them, eldest being 29 to youngest being 18 so I'm safe from that, but guns kept in a gun case and kit like others either in a wardrobe or a large kit bag for helmet gloves rig gas ammo etc Randymanpipe 1
Randymanpipe Posted August 31, 2015 Author Posted August 31, 2015 Finally got my cupboard finished, just about holds everything I need and fits discreetly into my utility room up high locked away from the little ones!

deebo Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 That looks epic tbh! Looks very discreet so no need to worry about people getting funny about it.
Supporters ImTriggerHappy Posted August 31, 2015 Supporters Posted August 31, 2015 Love the fact you camoed the inside of it. Nice to see the Ics Cxp hanging up in there. One less G&G sheep in the field. Randymanpipe 1
Randymanpipe Posted August 31, 2015 Author Posted August 31, 2015 Baaaaaaaa...... No G&G's live here. Only got eyes for ics & TM. The CXP is me CQB weapon. Looking at getting a mid range rifle in the next few months.

What is that? A gun cupboard for ants? It needs to be at least....3 times bigger!!! But seriously, nice stealth cupboard. Randymanpipe 1
