Whatchya'll using for pistol racks in your safes? The pistolas are adding up and I'd like to orient them vertically(sights up)for storage on the shelf. The HySkore brand would be ideal were they not so flimsy. Thanks for your help!

I am using the velcro back sleeves that stick to my safe wall. Works well.

Had some custom made and fit for my collection - got a lot more guns in there and I can see/fondle them without the hassle of taking them out of boxes/cases. "Bing" search usually shows some options.

I use the Handgun Hangers from here http://www.storemoreguns.com/collections/gun-safe-accessories/products/original-handgun-hangers in conjunction with their Rifle Rods. Works well for me.

Do the guns stay seperated well hanging from those racks? Is it easy to take a gun out with bumping the other guns? It looks like a GREAT idea.

If you want pm me your phone number i got some pics of something i made for mine its like the racks accept you don't have to have the wire on the top of the shelf instead I mounted a piece of 2x2 and spaced out stainless welding rods coated in plasty dip came out pretty neat.

Also if the racks are anything like what i built you don't have to worry about rubbing i spaced mine out where i can put my whole hand around the grip and still not touch the guns on either side of the one I am grabbing.

I use a rack that looks like this one.

Sure there are better options out there.

No problems with the handgun hanger system NaughtyMoose. Easy access to each pistol or revolver and you adjust the distance from each other by just sliding the hanger over. I can send you photo of my setup if you need. But really easy to use. Any pistol or revolver with a barrel length greater than 6 inches may have the butt hit the safe door. I have my S&W model 29 with 6 1/2 inch barrel mounted this way, but not my 7 1/2 inch Ruger Redhawk as it is too long to mount this way. Probably lots of good systems out there, but this works for me as stated above

I keep all mine in cheap pistol rugs, all oiled up and stored stacked up in my safes. Never could get used to the idea of a rack.

I have a peg board mounted to the inside of the door and hang them on hooks thru the trigger guard. With 2 hooks each you can align them pointing up if you like.
