Gun display stands
« on: March 04, 2017, 06:49:14 PM »
I don't know if this is the right place to post this or if even allowed, but I am in search of ideas or pictures of horizontal gun racks to display muzzle loading rifles on for gun shows.

Ha! I was just outside gluing up and pegging my gun rack. It's just two-by-fours mortised together, though, and pretty ugly overall. Doubt you'd want to copy for display....

Do a Google search for rifle table top display stands.  They aren't hard to find.

The best ones hold six or so longrifles and are low to the table.

ohidan; Sir, try "Smith Gun Displays", out of Minnesota. I own one and think the purchase from Mr. Smith was one of my best buys. A bit pricey but I plan to purchase a second long rifle display soon. Good hunting. AJ.

Contact Rod Fraser,  he builds the ones we use for the featured gunsmith in Marietta. Call if you need his number.

Shiloh only shows a single-gun stand currently. That is a pity because I like my two-gun version
