    Revolver Storage

    I ordered bamboo dish drying racks on Amazon-2 for $15.00 or so-then got some cheap heat shrink tubing . Put the tubing on the uprights add heat gun and you have 2 pistol racks. Wheel guns are a little tight but you can always modify at that price range. Merry Christmas Semper Fidelis Soup...
