How do you store your guns?

In most cases, muzzle down. I do this to prevent solvents/lubes from seeping back down into the action of the weapon in question.

I had never thought of this.

My only concern with muzzle down would be potential damage to a target crown. But otherwise, I think it makes more sense.

I cannot stress strongly enough NOT to lay a safe on it's side and open the door, unless it has a damper or spring to prevent the door from slamming down. It only takes one slip for someone to lose multiple fingers.

Another thing to keep in mind is that most of these vertical safes depend on gravity to hold the door on the hinges. You can just lift the door off while the safe is open (makes it quite a bit lighter when moving the safe). If you open it while it's on its side and the door slips off... good way to lose a couple toes.

I do muzzle up for my rifles and horizontal for my handguns. I don't have any AR or AK pistols (yet) but they'll be muzzle up.

Rifles and shotguns muzzle up. Handguns with barrels horizontal in a safe mounted hanging pistol rack or with muzzle down in safe door pouch holsters.

I think I know that guy. He also told me that chemtrails were dispersing viruses into the atmosphere to turn us all into aliens, by replacing our DNA with theirs.

Not aliens, ZOMBIES......!

We may have to do a scientific study. It is possible that zombies are the result of an alien infection. We should ask the Government for grant money.
