Gun Cabinet

642
17
 This is my oak gun cabinet with raised panel doors and an ammo drawer on the bottom. I originally made it rectangular from the side but it looked too boxy and I did not use the extra space in front of the guns so I took my skillsaw and tapered the sides and added the trim to match the angles.
 It has locks on the drawer and door.
 
 It is stained with Zar #120 Teak Natural stain and finished with polyurethane.
 
 My only regret is that the drawer is not on ball bearing full extension slides because the ammo is heavy!!.

Here is a recent shot with the Henry Golden Boy in there. it just made it with the Vortex scope on it.

It now holds a sabre in the red sleeve.  One unseen- a Remington Auto loader 22 LR, a Mossberg 410, an RWS .177 pellet rifle,a Browning 12 ga autoloader, a Winchester Model 94 in  30-30,A Marlin autoloader  in 22LR and a Henry Golden Boy in 22 Mag.

Those guns look really at home in a good looking cabinet.   Well done.

Great cabinet Jim, the raised panels are a nice feature with the angled front. Nice to have a lock on there too.  Well done.

Great looking cabinet.  Got a buddy with a Henry 22 LR, they are very sweet guns.

Thanks Moke, Ron, Eric, Ivan,, tom and Dave.
Hi Tom, at first it was square but I did not like the boxy look so I tapered it!!
Hi Dave, Yes Henry has a real smooth action - even in a 45-70 Much nice than my Winchester.

cheers, Jim

Thanks Buck. They are nice but my favorite is the Browning Automatic. I bought it when I was 17- 60 yrs ago! That was my deer hunting gun,
