Range day tomorrow.
Father in law is feeling a little down and out. I've need to get to the range to sight a few things back in anyways. So we're heading up tomorrow. An hour drive which we both enjoy and you'll never have a bad time shooting. It'll help us both out, he doesn't own any guns anymore but loves them every bit as much as I do.
I pulled the collection out to organize the safe and wipe everything down again and to get some ready to take along.
Of course I had to take some pics.
Yes, this is the bedroom. Where all(some) of the magic happens.
For anyone who wants to know how many guns a kingsize bed will hold...
Not an extremely nice or expensive collection, but a humble one.
Left to right....
-Savage/Stevens 200 in 243, 6.5-20x50 on top - A real deal when it comes to cutting bullseyes.
-CVA Optima 50Cal ML - A blast to shoot, but until this year, I haven't had good luck with optics, hopefully this Nikon will measure up.
-Marlin 917VR, 3-12x50 IR on top - What a hoot, and accurate!
-Marlin Mod 60SS, nothing needs said
-JC Higgins 16ga Bolt action - Used to shoot trap with the thing, it just won't miss, given to me by my wife's grandfather, bought new for a rabbit gun
-Mossberg "88" - Now used for trap, nice gun, but I'm still learning how to hit clays
-Stevens 22/410 O/U Teninte - Given to me by my wife's other grandfather, bought new in 1945(?)
-Marlin 1894, brand new...See my "Announcement" thread!
I haven't really gotten any decent pics of the new 243 up yet either, so here are a couple...

Maybe a little overkill, but now I don't need a spotting scope.[:)]0 -
dude -you were talking a few days back of getting a safe that holds 55+/
just a thought, BUT you and torrie may consider a young'un and your dreams of filling that safe may fall short.
get something to what you have and what you can afford in the near future....something bigger and better WILL come along when you are ready to have that many gats. my .02 [;)][:D]0 -

Once I get my 90days in a SW, I get awesome discounts on guns. My little account is building and ready to be spent. Just waiting to get my time in.
BTW that Browning Platinum safe is about $4k [B)]
Little outside my price range or need.
Found a 46gun Yukon Gold(made by Browning) for less than a grand. I'm not even going to tell you what my price would be <---[}:)]0 -
Always go with the biggest safe you can fit in the house. They fill themselves up [:D] 0 -
small safe, isnt it?[:I][:p] 0
