Gun storage... need advise. - 07/31/15
As some of you may know, we experienced a direct lightning strike to our home, which rendered the house uninhabitable for the next few months. Off-site storage of my gun collection is much too expensive at my gunsmith's location, I've run out of ideas, and am asking my fellow gun enthusiasts for suggestions for temporary storage.
Has anyone ever used a self storage unit? I've even thought of a covered cargo trailer, which could be secured at our temporary lodging. In the next few months while our home is being rebuilt, I do intend to liquidate a large portion of my collection, so whatever storage method I use, the collection will need to be readily accessible.
Any and all advice is welcome. I will, of course, give campfire members the opportunity to buy before placing the weapons for sale on gunbroker.com.
I am no sicker than I ever was; the wolf is not at the door; I do have a pot to piss in; so, I'm not giving the guns away - the firearms I list will be sold at a fair price - I'm certainly not in the price gouging business. First thing I need to do, though, is find a place to store the collection, away from the gun shop.
Thank you for your help,
George
