Firstly you don't want your guns to lay on anything that can absorb moisture. (cotton towel - bad idea) Use closed cell foam (backpacking pads) or rubber welcome mats (really cheap). Or the carpeting the rice car builders use to wrap their boomboxs with. (auto parts store) Anything that leaves grid marks or absorbs the oil off of the gun can be very bad in some applications. I have tools that laid on that cheap shelf liner material and it etched the finish on some of them. It reacts with a lot of oils. I don't think you want to place a gun on that stuff. Ideally you want you want to stand your guns up so the only thing touching them is nice dry air. Hanging them works well if you can attach some rubber/vinyl coated hooks to the door or wall. Keep them oiled and look at all of them once in a while.
