Its been going around the net for about 2 years. Various stories behind it. Whomever it belongs to has one hell of a set up and collection.

And not a sixgun or levergun in sight. I'd like to think our President had better taste.

I saw this once before, it was passing around as the collection of C. Reed Knight of Knight's Armament.

If I owned something like that, I damn sure wouldn't take pictures of it and let them get around on the net. For some unscrupulous people an armed home invasion and take over would be well worth the chance to get at all that. A simple kidnapping of the owner would start it all off.
Doesn't exactly look like Fort Knox to me. Get the owner and I'm sure he could be made to open it.

I liked to have the shooting tunnel that you can see in the one picture.

And not a sixgun or levergun in sight. Note all the cabinets beneath the display cases. That's where the handguns are kept. I've seen a few images of the "drawers" open........... Carl |

Kind of reminds me of my old gunsmiths place. He had a secret room above the garage. He had a hidden door you had to go through to get to it. Not much in the way of newer military stuff. Mostly older pre WWI. He had 6 original brass frame Henry's, Winchesters, Colt double rifle, shotguns and dozens of blackpowder pistols. The guns where racked three high all around the room. He called it his retirement fund. ;D

Just the vault door makes me drool!! That was my initial reaction, too!  Great looking toy room & I agree, the shooting tunnel would be cool. |

I'll take one 1/2 that size. With an adjoining reloading room, install a big TV, couch large enough to sleep on a toilet/shower and kitchenette and I might never leave! ;D

I can safely bet it's not Charlton Heston's. He may have served the NRA well as President, but long before he was ever in that position I watched him state on a national TV news program that he saw no "need" or reason for anyone to own an AK-47. Zero chance that's his room.
