Do you display your firearms and related collectables?

That's perfect! Not too dissimilar to what I was going for with my shop/man cave. Albeit a bit more rustic and my walnut library is in my office. I've never taken pictures with it fully finished.

Before, the previous owner used it for storage and working on his drag truck:

No, I do not display or photograph any sporting arms I might or might not own.

None of our firearms are on continuous display. We may display choice pieces, such as those with historic significance, on occasion, for the duration of a social gathering. Our defensive and carry firearms are not displayed, unless it is a rare meeting of a very select few highly-trusted fellow firearms enthusiasts.

Some firearms-related memorabilia is on continuous display.

No

All of my guns are in the safe except the one on my hip. I carry about 75% of the time and that includes while at home.

Not personally.

Nope. My guns stay in the safe, save for the handgun I keep by the bed.

Reloading room....yes, Trophy mount rooms....yes,.......but no gun display room.

Always thought this library-trophy-gun room was something that I'd enjoy having morning coffee in.

I saw that photo before reading your post and thought “Wow, Rembrandt sure has a nice place to hang out.” I was very envious.

I'm just curious if anyone else has such a space? Thanks.

Just got around to this thread. My answer is yes. I have a "retreat."

Two shadow-boxes with my military medals, ribbons, badges and flags. Some swords hanging on the walls. My favorite five wood-stocked long guns in a rack on the wall. Couple more frames with my collection of military and law enforcement patches. Couple of stands for an extensive collection of challenge coins. A stand with a couple of my military pistols. Shadow box with an old Colt revolver. And yeah, bunch of football and baseball trophies from HS, college and the military.

Guessin' I've turned into that guy in Springsteen's classic song Glory Days.
"And I hope when I get old I don't sit around thinking about it
But I probably will
Yeah, just sitting back trying to recapture
A little of the glory yeah
Well time slips away and leaves you with nothing, mister, but
Boring stories of

Glory days... "

Anyway, two separate security systems with 360-degree camera coverage of the property, all doors and windows alarmed. Two fairly militant but well-trained GSDs.
