Are wooden gun cabinets still legal?
I recently came across an eye catching wooden gun cabinet- yes there was a lock on the door- but the door was lined with a large class case which would be easy to break into. For the record I store all of my firearms in a metal gun safe- ---My question is this -if you have trigger locks on your firearms- would these wood gun cabinets be considered legal or not.used-gun-cabinets-for-sale-best-of-cheap-gun-cabinets-wood-wallpaper-photos-hd-decpot-of-used-gu.jpg

Being kept in a traditional gun cabinet that could easily be compromised is not acceptable if no other security is used, but, as long as you have a means of disabling them - ie trigger lock, removal of bolt, etc, everything is good.

Given the above criteria, a person could hang them in the front picture window if they chose too. So yes, the wooden cabinet is perfectly fine, and legal.

I say legal because it is under lock and key, but like you said i would put trigger locks on all firearms that can be accessible .

Out of site out of mind works for me, legal yes but temptation for some.

This is display and not storage, no ammo can legally be with it and the cabinet cannot be easily broken in to, once you need a tool to break into it then it is no longer easy. Yes legal but you cannot have the ammo with it, was looking at making some shadow boxes for some very old guns but not being able to display the old ammo and boxes hurt that idea.

My better half and I were talking about it yesterday, we are considering using something like that.

You people are all fools. Don't you know that having your guns easily accessible/visible means your wives can keep track of how many and what they look like? Rookies.......

Hey Foxy, What if you pulled the bullets and dumped the powder?
