    I throw a canvas over mine and keep them in the garden.



    If you posted a pic of your collection, it doesn't seem to have attached.

        Don't just leave them in the garden! These are pieces of history that changed the world! Imagine that one of them weapons were to vanish from history and a guy who killed another guy didn't have that weapon! It could have broke, locked or who knows what! The entire history of mankind would change!! Just do what i do and spend a lot of time researching that gun and it's number/markings (Maybe even link it up with a squad or a battle) Then remember all the people (No matter what side) who died fighting for their country! You hold in your hands one of our only links to the past!! Also get a box to put them in or just have them going along the walls...

          Hunker down..

          Did you say you keep them in the garden? Or you plant them there to grow little subbys who grow up to be big boy mgs? Regardless, you have a nice assortment and look well prepared for Armaggeddon or the Mayan oops ran out of Calender space thing. If it's the Rapture your'e waiting for I know where I can go to resupply my own little armory.

                Actually - I was being facetious, the OP with no posting history (of course he could have been collecting for forty years) asked how members displayed their collections (he could also have been fishing) - it seemed like a an opportunity for some levity.
                Sorry if it was lost on some - I am not very good at being funny.

                The guns in question are stored with the rest of the collection in several safes, under security code, lock and key in a newly damp proof environment.

                      Interesting "garden" you have there . . . sort of looks like NFA Branch's reference collection.

                          It's a movie gun rental company I use in Vancouver BC -
                          They have a lot of goodies - I have a couple of items that appeal to me, and a handful of other weirdos.
                          It is not my collection at all, but seemed appropriate for the thread - (I'll change the grammar now)

                          Tom told me the MP44's were three of a lot of twenty he was offered, they are Yugo reworks, that is why they have that green phosphate finish - still had waffenmarks though.

                          Also in Canada, same little movie - He complained about the weight of these, I told him they get lighter as you empty them.

                            Yeah, I figured the jig was up when you showed some of your goodies laying on the ground.....Than all of a sudden you're standing in a warehouse with a cache of weapons that could supply an army.....But hey, why pay for the cow IF you can get the milk for free......Thanks for sharing....Enjoy, Bodes
