Ammo Display Case


KahrMan

Recommended Posts

I got this in an auction.  I had been looking for a way to store some of my ammo and thought this was pretty cool.  It's more of a nostalgia thing really.  It reminded me going to the hardware store when I was younger and seeing all the ammo on display.  It was pretty rusty and paint was peeling off the wood pieces.  

 

I took it a part and started cleaning.  Got all the rust and peeling paint off.  Scraped and cleaned the glass doors.  Gave it a coat of fresh spray paint and put it back together.  Turned out pretty good.  The plastic insert sign did not clean up very well but that just adds to the charm.

I've got a trophy case built into my entry way and thought about doing something similar with it. Since it is easily viewed by the outside when I answer the door I thought better of it, but the thought still pops into mind from time to time.

 

Yours looks great! :up:

Good work, buddy. I like that.

I found a salvage store several yeas ago while out on my route that had bought a freight carload of damaged Hazardrous Materials cabinets.

I bought a 60'' x 36" x18" just to see how it would work, and that's all I get that day. Went back the next day and they were all gone.

Anyway, it's a very good storage cabinet. Lockable, and vented. And very heavy! And that's before the ammo placed in it.
