murph3010murph Posted March 2, 2018 Report Share Posted March 2, 2018 Ive been given my dad shotgun cabinet its like a 4 or 6 gun. anyway im applying soon for my fac and wondered, shotgun cabinets are ok for rifles too right. i know it might mean removing moderators. using it will save me cash so i can buy a bigger ammo safe.

bluesj Posted March 2, 2018 Report Share Posted March 2, 2018 if they fit in then yes. I think its best to remove the mods anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billytheghillie Posted March 2, 2018 Report Share Posted March 2, 2018 Yes its okay, but be warned, you will end up filling it with loads of guns, its addictive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billytheghillie Posted March 2, 2018 Report Share Posted March 2, 2018 You can pick up ammo safes cheap, mines was £20 2nd hand, as bluesj said, remove the mods when storing them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

panoma1 Posted March 2, 2018 Report Share Posted March 2, 2018 (edited) To the best of my knowledge there is no such thing as a rifle or a shotgun cabinet........just gun cabinets! From an Firearm Licencing approval point of view that is! Edited March 3, 2018 by panoma1 Clarification. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Touchstone Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 I think you'll find that you'll have to store your rifles on a slant as a shotgun cabinet won't be deep enough to take a scoped rifle put in straight. Ideally, you need an extra deep rifle safe. Kind regards, Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scully Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 Yes, it’s ok for rifles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walshie Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 Rifle cabinets are usually deeper from front to back to accommodate the scopes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dekers Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 Just now, walshie said: Rifle cabinets are usually deeper from front to back to accommodate the scopes. More commonly have a shelf or separate locking compartment as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
