Like so many others I store them under beds, behind doors, in corners , etc,etc., etc. When the grandkids come down ,my daughter in law is scared to lets the kids roam around....... So just last weekend I scalloped some boards and got some lumber from Lowes abd made a gun sotrage spot in my hall entrance closet, removed a couple topcoats and jackets and filled it up with guns. I also store my handguns on the top shelf. It is notfireproof, but has drywall interior and the door can be locked, it has the bed and bath lock, will keep the kids out and easier for me to reach in and find what I want, I just bought 2 more guns this month.
