Gun Room.

I have a pretty large gun/reloading room. I just hate having to take down all my reloaders, to work on a gun. Got thinking today and decided to build an Island for cleaning and repairing guns. Buying a kitchen base cabinet, 60x24x34 1/2 and a counter top. I want it to be stable, so I didn't want anything on wheels. I figure the cabinets would match the other cabinets I have down there. I can also take everything apart when we move. My bench now, is 8 feet long , but just over crowded to work on all the time. What have you guys got set up?? The room has two ammo closets, on each side of this safe, but I don't have it in the pictures. I have three more safes like this one, in the other room. Room is about 16x 12, so perfect for a little island.

I don’t reload and my little setup is very simple but it works for me
@Oakie I thought you were getting ready to move ?
I love your set-up, especially the section with the safe built-in. About three more years until I can stop with all the moving around, and then I hope to put together a proper room.
Same safe we have.
Yeah, that's not going anywhere. (bolted down too?)
Like seeing the Fire Extinguisher too
You clean guns?
It's a nice setup ☺️

Gun room? Your stuff all fits in ONE room???????????????
I put that in the post. I can remove everything when I move in a couple years. Until then, I want a place to clean my guns. I will build a room to except all these cabinets and tops when we move. I still have about 2 to 4 years left here. Just waiting on her to decide where and when.
You clean your guns.....🙃
Nice set up Oakie..... and Austin
I will find a way to come see you brother.
You'll have to bring your own atv though.......😉
It's nice to see that we can all still have a little fun....
Thanks, I built that a few years ago.. I have added a little more lighting in the room. I ran electric into the safe for a golden rod and some LED lighting on a motion sensor
Currently I have a homemade bench about 6 feet long. It has a shelf below it to hold all my cleaning equipment and supplies. Plenty of space. I put an old yoga mat on top of the bench to keep things from sliding around and to give a softer space to work on. When it gets dirty, I give it a 2 hour soak in some hot water & OxyClean, rinse, hang outside to dry, and done.

could do the guns the same way and save some time.................
For cleaning my shop, I just dig out my old 120V leaf blower and open up a couple doors. 😁

My shop cleaning follows Brookwood 's method . Works good for me . Also used the blower on the cab of the farm truck every week or so
I like that Idea. I'm gonna buy a yoga mat to put on mine. Thanks for that one!!!!
You and my father-in-law have the same gun room layout, Ray! No kidding, his and yours are so similar its kinda scary.

started using the blower to clean off the mower after mowing, blow all the grass off the deck and off the pushmower when done, then even blew out the outbuilding of spider webs and old grass, leaves.......
I have a husqvarna backpack blower. Great for all kinds of chores.
