A fella that I used to work for when I was a teenager ran a gunshop out of his house. He had a huge "walk in" safe (12 ft deep x 10 ft wide x 8 ft tall,) it had solid concrete walls and was centrally located in his basement. Lining the walls were 2x4 stud walls with Spanish Cedar 2x6 lumber for wall board, he took 5/8 dowell rods and specifically position those dudes to lean the long guns against, and had shelves for pistols, and some hung from dowells also,, but it looked very nice and he could fit a bunch of guns in that thing as well as "Boxed" inventory.... It was really nice,, heck it's still looks nice and smells nice too.
