Gun rack

Does anyone know where I can find plans for a tabletop gun rack similar to those seen at the KRA or anyone who builds them.
Thanks

This is a rack I built out of 1 x 4 pine for displaying my rifles at gun shows.  It displays 14 rifles and six shooting pouches.

Phil Lucas makes most of the curly maple gun stands you see at the KRA. If your interested in contacting him, he's in the KRA directory, or shoot me an email and I'll send you his phone number.

I would like to bring this back to the top to see if anyone could post other examples of table top gun racks.
Thanks

Thanks Acer,

I always forget to look at stands when I go to shows. I mean to but the guns get in the way.  ;D
Heck, I have taken a camera the last three trips and was so enthralled that I did not take a single photo.   :-[

I have no idea who made these two (maybe the Phil Lucas mentioned by Fullstock?) - the pictures are from the KRA table at Dixon's 2007 - couldn't miss this for the guns, this maker is every bit the craftsman.

The rack almost upstages the rifles!  Nice workmanship.

Rick -- OMYGAWD! Someone used what appears to be !@*%&@ nice stock wood for a RACK>~! There must be WAY too much curly maple in the area where those folks live. For shame. There are those amongst us who would pay good money for that wood. Haven't they heard of pine, for gosh sakes?????? -- paulallen, tucson az

There are several good plans here that can be modified to use with longrifles:

Can't see it clear in these photos but the long bench behind Paul and the high one he works most at are curly maple. Just the way he is. Doesn't work a computer so you won't get a response from him on here.
