Am just curious as to where you lot keep your stash ? out of site, on display? tucked in a wardrobe where your nearly 4 year old son can find it and then stumple across said son sniper style on the landing with a rifle (no gas thankfully as he has a toy bb gun and pellets that would go in it :roll: so was not shot at ).......

Its a serious question tho :lol: I think it was forgotton when the rest went away for storage and as he's not here to moan at (am good at that, I am a moaning nazi :rasp: :lol: but it did lead me onto the curious question irrespective of kids or not where you keep them.

NOTE for the not so bright .... ;) I don't need to know what room etc just mean in a bag/ in house (don't need to know room) you don't need to give any information if you don't want to am just curious :wink:

pmsl cos ours aren't old enough to know better so they kept out of the house as a rulle first incident and will be last :wink: , thankfully I don't think it was a huge issue, did at the time but seeing as its several hours later and my sense of humours kicked in I can see it in a lighter context, though I could have throttled someone earlier :twisted: :lol:

All my kit is bagged/boxed in the garage - I did used to have some lying around in the study until the window cleaner commented on it one day. (Only way they could be seen was by someone standing on the pitched roof of the garage peering in through a first floor window). Bugger I thought , this is going to take some explaining. Turns out both his sons play airsoft at my local site!
I really would like to rack them on the wall so they can double up as decoration while they aren't being used but it's asking for trouble so they are packed away from prying eyes...

she is, but she can bog off if she thinks she's coming on "my hobby" 8)

Best a/s weapons locked away, trying to explain to the police after you've been burgled would not be good .

In time they may get racked for display in the pc room/study but at the moment they're in convenient cuboards or in their boxes under the wardrobe

I store all my weapons in either gunbags or their original boxes, all other gear and clothing is stored in stackable utility boxes.

Jackets, trousers, smocks - on hangers, in wardrobe
BBs, gas, small screwdrivers, loader etc. in a small aluminium tool case
Belt order, straps, caps etc. in a white Ikea storage box, in my hobbies room
Only have two guns at the moment - the p38 is kept holstered and lives on top of a display cabinet in my hobbies room and the mp40 is just propped up against a drawer unit in the same room - :D

No kids at the mo - but one on the way. Will soon be fitting high security entry control systems to the door, complete with retinal scanner - :wink:

In Vacuum Sealed Boxes in the Garage, each box has a set of kit in it, so in theory should just be able to dump in the back of the car.

Rifles leant up against the inside of my walk in wardrobe.
