JimFromFL Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 That is an awesome idea. I would have never thought of that. http://www.machinegunbooks.com/forums/invboard1_1_2/upload/html/emoticons/woot.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
21 smoker Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 I like it ,I like it!...another little tid bit if I recall it correctly..there was a Sturm listed in the hierarchy of Auto Ordnance about the same time frame...wonder if that is how both gentlemen became acquainted?.. http://www.machinegunbooks.com/forums/invboard1_1_2/upload/html/emoticons/wink.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roland, Headless Thompson Gunner Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 Those six pack racks are a good idea. Good excuse to get some more drums. I'm sure Hensley could use a couple of 12 packs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Chris Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 I ordered a two 6 gun racks from KCSafe a few weeks ago... for handguns. Might be a little cheaper with the included free shipping. They have 4 and 6 gun racks and I like the black finish better. http://kcsafestore.easystorecreator.net/Br...tol_Rack_6_Gun_ http://kcsafestore.easystorecreator.net/images/images_23907/KCS-PR06.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Crow Posted December 23, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 Bill Ruger left Auto-Ordnance in 1945, and in 1949 in collaboration w/ Alexander Strum, brought Ruger to the front of firearms manufacture. Source, Ruger and His Guns; by R. L. Wilson. I'm surprised with researching other firearms manufacturers of how many key players once worked with, or for other manufacturers. The hand gun racks are made in 4 and 6 sizes, $22.00 and $25.00 respectively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Chris Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 Jack- The website says $29 and $39+10 respectfully for the 4 and 6 gun models... is the website wrong? (Never mind - Missed it came from Brownells)...... I just checked the 6 gun KC Safe model with a L drum and a C drum and both fit nicely. A damn fine idea. Chris.

Grey Crow Posted December 23, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 I purchased from Brownells, throw in a tax number and they sell for $20.29 on the 6 model. They charge $8.50 for UPS ground though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Crow Posted December 23, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 Chris, Looking at the differances of the racks, and working with the Versatile, the KCSafe model being squared off would offer better security so far as tipping of the gun in the rack side-to-side.

Grey Crow Posted December 24, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2005 Due to the design of the stand being for hand guns, drums sit a little off center, giving a depth of 7", height of 8.5" and a width of 14 1/8th long. If there isn't enough room in the safe, it gives another reason to buy another larger safe. http://www.machinegunbooks.com/forums/invboard1_1_2/upload/html/emoticons/woot.gif Mike I like your Thompson stands, it only strengthens my reasoning for a room just for guns and ACCESSORIES! http://www.machinegunbooks.com/forums/invboard1_1_2/upload/html/emoticons/tongue.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
