So, I have a relatively small gun safe. Tall and narrow that I use for both long guns and handguns. Space is getting very tight in there to store the long guns but I suspect I could fit them better if I stored every other one muzzle down - alternating their orientation since they tend to interfere at the receiver/bolt/stock section.
Emotionally I am having trouble bringing myself to do this as it cuts across the grain of everything I've been taught, know, feel about long guns. But intellectually, the muzzles are pretty tough (and most have brakes or equivalent to protect the barrel muzzle), the safe is lined with some material that is as soft and smooth as a bunny's inner ear and, short of an earthquake (which is not unlikely whereI live) they will not be jostled around in there.
So, do any of you do this? If one of you came to my house, looked in my safe and saw this would you have the moderators throw me off of THR?
Serious question though - even if it sounds goofy.
