I will be moving to North Carolina and I'm looking for some input on the best way to move/protect my firearms. I plan on trying to leave as many as I can in my safe since they might be in storage a few months. I was thinking about using a gun sock and then place it in one of the green?? plastic bag for firearm storage. Normally i would just put them in the truck but due to available space and quantity it won't work this time. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated that doesn't involve selling.

If you are just driving from here to there then you only need to worry about scratching I would guess. Wrap them in a blanket and problem solved. I don't think a firearm that has been properly cleaned and lubed will rust or anything in that time frame.

Wrap them in blankets or towels and toss them into the safe. If the storage isn't climate controlled then toss Ina few dehumidifier packs and call it a day. Don't spend a crap ton of money on a case you don't need.
Good plan on the gun sock and plastic bags. Add dehumidifier packs and cushioning so that you don't get a lot of movement of the firearms in the safe. Blankets would work but consider them in conjunction with bubble wrap, and extra padding on sharp places like bolt handles and sights. If they are well packed, protected from movement and moisture you shouldn't have any trouble. If you've got soft guncases, consider packing in the soft case and then into the safe.
