Display Stands for Modelguns?

Post by 2Sharp

Somewhere i did see plastic display stands for pistols, they also hade the proper manufacurers name on the base.

Anyone know where i can buy these?

Or any other ideas on how to display your pistols? I want them standing up so to speak. I'm going to buy a display case and i don't want them to just be laying down on the shelves.

Hiya 2sharp

I remember seeing those clear plexiglass branded stands but the one supplier I kinew of has then listed as No Longer Available. I'll keep looking but in the meantime try this lot

These stands are worth a look although they are rather expensive...

or these if you want wooden ones (looks easy to make these yourself!)

I've had no luck finding the stands with printed Manufacturers' logos on them mate. There was a range available wasn't there with Colt, Walther, Sig Sauer, Taurus etc?


The nearest I've found are these...

type in Pistol Stand in Search.

If you've got rifles or SMGs to display you could make a simple wooden stand like this.
There are pistol stands like this (as I found in the last message) but personally I think wood suits big guns better

Hot damn!

GOOD find there Cerwyn, i think i'm quite partial to the transparent stands, i feel the wooden stands would clutter up a glass cabinet?

If they were standing in a shelf or something the wooden stands would be neater...

I have some idea on mounting my rifles on a wooden plaque, will try that out once i get back home to Sweden

Thank you!

Agreed 2sharp , glass cabinets need clear stands without a doubt.

The wooden pistol stands look a bit "heavy" too don't they? They seem to detract your eyes from the gun which defeats the object a bit!

I did like that M4 wooden stand though, so simple isn't it? A wooden magazine to locate the gun screwd onto a flat base and there you go.
It is small enough to almost disappear too beneath a long rifle
